It's Monday! What Are You Reading!


It's Monday, What Are You Reading? is a weekly meme hosted by Sheila at Book Journey, that is guaranteed to add to your reading list.

Another whirlwind week! I hosted book club, and my family and I attended Holiday Nights at Greenfield Village on Friday night. Saturday night my husband and I ventured out to the Wayne County Lightfest, which was cray-cray! I plan on writing a few posts about the holiday events I have been attending here in the Detroit Metro area, hopefully this week!

Read Last Week:

 


Little Women: Finished just in time for book club! 

A Mistletoe Christmas by Carla Cassidy, et al: This was a fun one! I enjoyed it.

Snowed In by Sarah Title: I really enjoyed this novella - in fact, I wanted it to be a lot longer!

Reading This Week:


A Christmas Carol by Charles Dickens: Reading as part of Brona's Books readalong, although I still have to sign up!

    I love Little Women! I was just thinking of rereading A Christmas Carol too. Both are good books for this time of year. Have a great week!

      I have never read A Christmas Carol! That will be rectified this year though! Lol.

    Snowed In has such a wonderful cover, Christmas cozy. And even better sounds like the novella lived up to the cover.

      I love that cover too. I love big snow days, and I am sad we haven't had any yet!! I really did enjoy this novella- due to its short nature though, it was just too quick! I really enjoyed the characters and would love to have read a longer book about them. :)

      The Greenfield Village night was so fun! We go every year. :) But for us, its like 15 minutes away. The reads were fun, and definitely helped contribute to a holiday spirit!

I love hearing from people, don't be shy! I would love to hear what you think! I always reply back, although it takes me a bit longer these days due to the little guy.
