It's Monday! What Are You Reading This Week?


This meme is hosted by J. Kaye at J. Kaye's Book Blog. Now, before you read on down, take a moment with me to do a happy dance. I not only finished one of the books that has been under the "bookmarks are still living in" section for weeks and weeks and possibly even months, but I am down to single digits in the number of books I still have left to review. Woohoo!!! Snoopy dance! Ok, dancing over. Procede with post reading. :-)

Autumn in Scotland by Karen Ranney
Seeing Things by Patti Hill
Eve's Ransom by George Gissing
Blue Highways by William Least Heat Moon

Bookmarks are still living in the middle of:

The Far Pavilions by M.M. Kaye
Shelf Discovery by Lizzie Skurnick
Twilight by Stephanie Meyer
The Mistress by Susan Wiggs
Dracula Is Dead by Sheilah Kast and Jim Rosapepe
Our Mutual Friend by Charles Dickens

    Whew, got a little sweaty doing the Happy Dance :D I' seriously considering cutting WAY BACK on the arcs and review copies in 2010. My own bookshelves are overflowing with good books and I need to read a lot of them (and give away) just to ease my mind and to slow down the incredulous looks from hubby whenever I say I need to buy a book, lol.

    Here's to finishing review copies!!

    Yay! It feels so good to remove things from your list, doesn't it?
    Happy reading this week.
    Here is a look at my week.

    I remember really enjoying Blue Highways, but that was about 20 years ago so I'm interested to see whay you thought.

    And it will be fun to watch Twilight squat on your bookmarks list for the winter. I hope the principal is a follower.

I have had to disable the anonymous comment option to cut down on the spam and I apologize to those of you for whom this makes commenting a chore. I hope you'll still opt to leave me your thoughts. I love to hear what you think, especially so I know I'm not just whistling into the wind here at my computer.
