It’s Monday…What Are You Reading? (7.18.10)

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.

It was a crazy week last week as I was running around getting ready for my upcoming trip up to Canada for my cousin’s wedding. Over the weekend, my mom came home from the Peace Corps after being gone for two years and we finally got to meet my newest niece who was born 7 weeks ago but lives in Dubai…it was definitely a fun family weekend! Of course, reading was set to the back burner, but I am hoping to get some good reading time in this week as Mom and I head off to Canada tomorrow – my Nook is definitely going to come in handy for this trip!

Books Completed last week:

  • Killer Dreams by Iris Johansen (library audio book) 
  • Little Bitty Lies by Mary Kaye Andrews (mine)

    You did have a busy week, but I imagine it was super-fun! And what would we do without our Nook? Although I haven't had the pleasure of using mine on an airplane yet! Hope your trip to Canada is great. There are some new books on your list that I will need to check out. Thanks for sharing!
