What Are You Reading?

Sheila at Book Journey hosts this weekly event where we celebrate what we are reading for the week as well as books completed the previous week.

My reading has slowed way down the last few weeks and I am not sure why. Saturday was the read-a-thon. I was baking tons of cookies and then entertaining guests and could only participate early in the day and a little bit later in the evening.

Books Read Last Week:
Flash and Bones by Kathy Reichs (great crime not a fan of the NASCAR backstory)
The Bird Sisters by Rebecca Rasmussen (just so-so for me)
Chaos in Death by JD Robb - audiobook from an anthology

Just started reading The Cut by George Pelecanos

Up Next:
The Virtuoso by Grace Burrows
The Wild Rose by Jennifer Donnelly

Book Thoughts:
Baby, Its Cold Outside
Love On The Line
The Dark Enquiry
BloodFever
FaeFever
DreamFever
ShadowFever

Hey there!

I wouldn't like a NASCAR backstory either. I can't rememebr which book I read that had something similar that I had to put down...it was by Evanovich or something...amazing cover, not so amazing content lol!

Anyway, I love your header :)

I had the same problem with the readathon on Saturday - too many other things going on! Have a great week!

I enjoyed The Bird Sisters...and I'm wanting to dive into a Kathy Reichs book. I've read some J. D. Robb, but I'm way behind on the series.

Enjoy!

Here's MY MONDAY MEMES POST and

I'm curious about The Wild Rose. Happy reading. Visitors and baking will surely cut down on reading time!

I keep getting different opinions on Bird Sisters.

Enjoy your week.

Interesting about your feelings about the Bird Sisters, I too didn't get much reading done on the read a thon.

I'm not surprised Reichs used Nascar in her book since she lives part of the time in Charlotte.

My husband loved The Cut!

Sounds like your books last week weren't so good. Hopefully this week is better. The Wild Rose is good, I think (have heard a lot of good about it).

Have a good week!

I can't wait to read your thoughts on The Bird Sisters. I think I was mostly attracted to the cover!

I'll have to check out Flash and Bones. I like Reichs books. We must be on the same wavelength. I'm listening to audiobook of Glory in Death. Started listening to series in car. Enjoying it just as much as when read it.

Not great reading weeks for me the last few weeks :( Hope this week is better for you.
Really want to start on the Fever series, maybe I'll make it my next audio.

Have a great week and happy reading!

I liked The Bird Sisters but it was an odd story so I understand some not liking it too well. I have The Tea Rose series in my pile and need to read it soon. The books are pretty good sized so I keep putting them back down the pile. Have a great reading week!

Kristin said...

I started reading the Kathy Reichs' series - so far I've read book one and I really enjoyed it. I have quite of few others in the series - just need to find time to read them.

Have a great week and thanks for stopping by my blog!
