It’s Monday What Are you Reading , hosted by Sheila, is the perfect way for me to begin my week and allows me to focus on what needs to be read and to see what I have or have not accomplished the previous week. I also enjoy discovering new books by visiting other participants blogs.
Last week was a busy week, but I did make it to the author meet and greet for Elizabeth Berg – so exciting! I also managed to spend a lot of time this past weekend reading on my porch – this has become my new favorite spot to read.
This week is looking to be a bit busy, but I am still hoping to get in some quality reading time.

What about you? What does your reading week look like this week? Whatever it is, happy reading and have a good week!
I hope you can fit some reading time into a busy week. I am a big fan of Iris Johansen. I hope you are enjoying that one. My Monday Report is here. Happy reading!
What a great list! So I immediately checked out Friendship Bread. Last year my Mother in Law was gifted some friendship bread and started and before I knew it everyone in our community was making it. (I gifted it to many of our neighbours as well).
Have a great reading week!

There are a lot of books on your list that I want to read! Friendship Bread looks interesting and I've been wanting to try Debbie Macomber's books. I still need to read Elizabeth Berg too.
I hope you enjoy your reading this week.
Good luck fitting those books on your list into a busy week!
Here's my Monday: myreadersblock.blogspot.com/2011/05/its-monday-what-are-you-reading_09.html
I'm curious to see what you think of "Cleopatra" – I want to get to it when I have more time to really spend digesting it.
I have the Forgotten Garden on my shelf so I look forward to reading your review! Have a great week of reading!
You have a great list there. I didn't get to finish Cleopatra, but it's on my to-read list for this summer. Enjoy your reading week!
So glad to see you loved the new Wendy Wax book! I've got a review coming up for that one at the Chick Lit site I review for.
Hope you have a fabulous reading week and if you get a second stop my to see what I've been reading at There's A Book! 🙂
My list this week is inflated with picture books that I read with my daughter and manga that I read over my morning coffee. Come see what I'm reading this week.
I totally understand how busy weeks can get in the way of good, quality reading time. Hope you squeeze some in this week!
