It's Monday! What Are You Reading is hosted by Kathryn at Book Date
So May was not the best month for me and blogging! I hope to do better this month - I really miss it when I don't get this time. We have been having lots of little family adventures though lately! And ice cream. All good things.
Read Last Two Weeks:
Truly Madly Guilty by Liane Moriarty: This was really good! My first by this author, but I did watch the HBO show Pretty Little Lies, which led me here. This won't be the last I read by Moriarty!
The Sound of Glass by Karen White: Still reading my way through White's backlist, and loving it. It's also a good way to pass the time while waiting for all my library holds to trickle in.
This one had a crazy good twist!
The Widow's House by Carol Goodman: Loved it. Loved it!!! I love this author, and this book was no exception.
Reading This Week:
I am looking forward to starting this one! I am also hitting the new books section tomorrow at the library - always so exciting!
Watching:
We are addicted to all the farm series shows produced by BBC - we watched Edwardian and Victorian Farm, and are now watching Tudor Farm. They are available on Youtube actually! We are also watching The Durrells (more books I am waiting on, the Corfu Trilogy!), iZombie, Supernatural, HGTV shows, and The Handmaid's Tale. We began Twin Peaks but haven't watched since, although we do plan on going back.
So what's been going on in your world? Good stuff I hope!
Glad you liked Truly Madly Guilty! I did too. and you have to read Big Little Lies, even if you've seen the show the book is a RIOT!
ReplyDeleteI've been watching Luther on Netflix- have you ever seen? Oh my gosh the Alice Morgan character- LOVE her lol. And I didn't read a lot in May either- hopefully June will be better!
Have a great week!
I will! I am glad that they are both good ~ I love finding new to me authors!
DeleteI haven't! I think my husband may have though. I will have to watch it! I loved Powerless, which was a comedy about superheroes- I thought I would hate it but I loved it. Lol.
Karen White and Liane Moriarty are both authors I want to try. Maybe in retirement I'll find the time. Come see my week here. Happy reading!
ReplyDeleteI hope you do find a minute for them ~ I am really enjoying them lately!
DeleteI loved all of these books! I enjoy Liane Moriarty, Karen White, and Carol Goodman. Thanks for sharing, and enjoy your week.
ReplyDeleteHere are MY WEEKLY UPDATES
I enjoyed them all so much they made it difficult to read someone new! I guess I will have to read them until I am sick of them. Lol. Well not Goodman, since I have read all of hers already, but the others. So glad you like them too!
DeleteLovely looking books. Have a good week. Armchair Book Expo, getting ready to move, drama club, and a volunteers' tea. Come see what I'm reading this week.
ReplyDeleteSounds busy but fun!!
DeleteThe month of May was very much the same for me re: blogging & reading. Hope June proves to be a better month on those fronts. Happy reading!
ReplyDeleteMe too. I miss the blog world when I am away, it is an important outlet for me, especially now that I am a SAHM.
DeleteYou should read What Alice Forgot by Moriarty. What a hoot! I really liked it.
ReplyDeleteI love the cover of the Sound of Glass! I love sea glass in general and used to have a whole vase full of it :)
Hope to chat with you more in the blogosphere soon-- stay connected with us when you can. Glad the little guy loves ice cream, yay!
I still need to change my link for you in my blogroll! I will definitely read that Moriarty book - I loved the one I read, and I love when I can read a new to me author's backlist. Woohoo!
DeleteI love it too! It is so pretty and soothing looking. One character in this book loved it as well, and made windchime after windchime from it.
I am glad too! We are constantly battling to put weight on his bones, and ice cream helps! :)
Ice cream! Do let us know if you discover any new flavors we need to know about. :) When Blue Bell returned, it didn't bring my favorites back with it. :(
ReplyDeleteAw that stinks!!! My current favorite is Scooby Doo ice cream from Guernsey Dairy, which is another local dairy farm. I am not sure where all they ship to or who carries them. Their ice cream is amazing!
