It’s Monday…What Are You Reading (7.11.11)

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.

    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.

    @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!

    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!
