It's Monday! What Are You Reading?

It's Monday! What Are You Reading? is hosted by Sheila at One Persons Journey Through a World of Books. If you want to let the world know what books you're going to be reading this week, head on over to her blog and leave your link.

Yes, it really is Monday, isn't it? Don't know why I always have such a hard time getting started after the weekend, but I'm running behind today as usual.

In the last couple of weeks I've been doing pretty well with my reading, although I'm still lagging on review writing (what else is new?). Here's what's up lately:
  • Finished last week:
    An American Type, by Henry Roth. Review to come next month (book is due out in June).
    A River in the Sky, by Elizabeth Peters
    Live To Tell, by Lisa Gardner. Review to come later (book is due out this summer).

  • Reviews posted recently:
    A River in the Sky, by Elizabeth Peters
    The Swimming Pool, by Holly LeCraw

  • Reading this week:
    The Forgotten Garden, by Kate Morton
    The Map of True Places, by Brunonia Barry

  • Next up:
    The Sculptor, by Gregory Funaro (Won this in a Good Reads giveaway. Looks interesting.)

  • In the works:
    Still at least half a dozen or so reviews to be finished up and posted. (Must do better!)

  5. A good friend of mine raves over The Forgotten Garden so I'll be interested to see what you think of it.

  6. I'll have to try the next Elizabeth Peters book and see what happens. I gave them up for a while because I got frustrated with some of the storylines, but your review has convinced me to give this book, A Rive in the Sky, a try.

    Enjoy your reading week!

Welcome and thanks for leaving me a comment. I love to hear from visitors.

Also, please note that while I appreciate the thought, I don't play the blog awards game. I think you all deserve awards! But you might think about becoming a follower of my blog -- that would really be the best award.
