It's Monday! What Are You Reading?




A weekly event hosted by Sheila from One Persons Journey Through a World Of Books to discuss your reading week ~ the books you've read and those you plan on reading in the coming week.

Well the wheels fell off the bus again this week and reading and blogging came to a grinding halt. It's such a regular occurrence these days I'm thinking I should trade my bus in on a better model LOL. This week is looking just as chaotic but the reward is scrapbook camp at our favourite scrapbooking store Daisy Chain  Scrapbooks. Alaine and I leave Friday lunch time for a weekend of scrapping, relaxing and girly time and I can't tell you how excited I am about that.

If you live in U.S or Canada and you'd like to win a $60 Gift Certificate to be used at any of CSN's 200+ online stores you can enter my giveaway here.


************

Completed Last Week:

THE MIDWIFE'S TALE by Gretchen Moran Laskas - definitely recommend this one to historical fiction lovers with an interest in midwifery and healing.

************

This Week's Reading List:



THE HEALERS by Thomas Heric ~ page 156. This one is a bit like a horrific car crash, really disturbing but you just can't look away.

NEVER LET YOU GO by Erin Healy

LEVIATHAN by Scott Westerfeld  ~ chapter 18 (audiobook) Haven't decided whether to put this one aside for a week or two, I just don't seem to be in the right mood.

************

Reviews still to do:

THE RECKONING by Kelley Armstrong

NEED by Carrie Jones

FORGET-HER-NOTS by Amy Brecount White

  2. Glad you enjoyed The Midwife's Tale and The Healers looks interesting.

    Four more sleeps! I think this week we should just duck, cause I think we are going to get some more s^#t thrown at us this week and if we duck we'll be ok!

  4. Your books look good Teddyree! I like the sound of The Midwife's Tale. Lets trade that bus in for something like a jet ski! Very seasonally correct and no wheels :D

    Enjoy the scrapbook camp that sounds like a blast!

  8. Healers sound very interesting loved your description of it. I have been meaning to read Leviathan, but like you said best intentions sometimes are sidetracked by life. Have a great week.

  13. I enjoyed Leviathan when I read it with my son, though I doubt I would've picked it up on my own. I can't wait to hear what you think of it. :)

  18. Hi Teddyree- Just popping in to see what you are reading! The Midwife's Tale sounds interesting. I'm not so sure I would be into "a horrific car crash". I'll be interested in your final thoughts on Leviathan.
    Have a great week.
