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.
Last week was very busy at work – I am trying to finish up a bunch of things before I take some time off, so reading got pushed to the back burner. I am only working three days this week and then I’m off for five weeks – I’ll be doing quite a bit of traveling during that time, so I have no idea how much reading will get done, but I am excited.

- A Summer Affair by Elin Hilderbrand (mine)

What about you? What does your reading week look like this week? Whatever it is, happy reading and have a good week!
Something Blue is a great read! I think you will enjoy it. I recently checked out Now You See Her by James Patterson. I'm looking forward to reading it. I didn't expect it to come in so soon as I was #127 on the wait list. Definitely sounds like a good book to spend a lazy afternoon reading outside. Have a good week!
@Shonda I just finished reading Now You See Her five minutes ago…OMG is all I'm going to say! Loved it!!!
Cleopatra was really good, I hope you enjoy it as I did. Have a wonderful week and enjoy your books.
