It’s Monday What Are you Reading , hosted by Sheila, isthe 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.
I have not taken on any blog tours this month because I will be doing a fair amount of traveling over the next few weeks. As for my reading, I am trying to get some of the books I’ve had sitting around done so that I can pass them on to family members.

What about you? What does your reading week look like this week? Whatever it is, happy reading and have a good week!
Wow! You have lots of books going on there 🙂
A productive week I can see.
I am getting better at having a couple of books on the go. One main read and another for those moments when I want to read but there is a lot going on around me.
Have a great reading week.

Beachcombers sounds good – perfect for summer! Enjoy our week 🙂
@Dizzy C Before I started blogging, I never read more than one book at a time. Now I usually have at least one book going, sometimes two, and an audio.
@Sheila (Bookjourney) Beachcombers was great and I loved that it was set in Nantucket – the perfect beach read!
As celebration for the new Bloggers' Alliance for Nonfiction Devotees ( nonfictiondevotees.tumblr.com/), I'm cheering on everyone's nonfiction reading today. So, yay for Cleopatra!
Our reading and TBR piles are very similar. Have a wonderful week!!
Wow, looks like a great list for you – a nice mix of summer reading!
I'm re-reading the last Harry Potter book before the movie comes out. Enjoy your books this week!

I tried reading Cleopatra: A Life earlier this year but didn't have the time to finish it. I hope you have better luck with it! I liked Beachcombers when I read it and I've been meaning to try some of Nancy Thayer's other books. Have a great week!
