It's Monday! What Are You Reading and I'm a Nonna :)


A weekly event hosted by Sheila from Book Journey to discuss your reading week ~ the books you've read and those you plan on reading in the coming week. I love this meme, it helps me stay on track ... well, most of the time. Thanks Sheila! 

Christine and Anthony's precious baby girl, Mia arrived Saturday 28th June, 7lb 5oz. *Squeeee* I'm a Nonna and I'm totally smitten with my little grandaughter. Words are inadequate to express how blessed I feel to have witnessed her birth. Christine was amazing, Anthony and Christine were an amazing team, my heart is full.

This Week's Reading List: 


THORNWOOD HOUSE by Anna Romer (audiobook) ~ chapter 15 and it's wonderful

RISKY BUSINESS by Amy Andrews ~ 75% done

THEN CAME YOU by Jill Shalvis (Animal Magnetism #5) ~ hell yeah

MAYBE SOMEDAY by Colleen Hoover

 ************

Reviews Coming:

THE COLLECTOR by Nora Roberts (audiobook) ~ not up there with The Witness. A bit predictable and implausible but still enjoyable, good narration by Jenna Whalen. 

CORDUROY LOST AND FOUND by B.G. Hennessy ~ my boys loved Corduroy when they were little and I still love this intrepid little bear.

  10. Congrats on little Mia! She is gorgeous...and I know how exciting it is to see a new baby grandchild. I was at the hospital when my granddaughter Fiona was born (she is now 17!); we have always had an extra special bond. Enjoy!

    I am reading The Collector now...and yes, different from The Witness, but I like the character Lila (writer/house-sitter sounds like fun!).

    I'll bet reading this week will not be your favorite thing, with a new baby. Enjoy! And thanks for visiting my blog.

  13. Congrats to you for joining the grandma club! I am a Nana to 3, and was able to assist in one of the births (the other I was out of state, and the last was an emergency c-section). Nothing can describe the feeling. Mia is a beautiful bundle of joy! Don't worry about the reading, it will still be there. Savor the moment for now, have a good week!
