It's Monday! What Are You Reading?

Hmmm. I reviewed three but read five. I don't think I'm going in the right direction on the read versus reviewed ratio. Oh well! At least something got reviewed this week. A step in the right direction anyway. This meme is hosted by Sheila at One Person's Journey Through a World of Books.

Books I completed this week are:

The Scarlet Pimpernel by Baroness Orczy
Before Lunch by Angela Thirkell
The Financial Lives of the Poets by Jess Walter
The Kabul Beauty School by Deborah Rodriguez
Zero to Mastectomy by Jackie Fox

Bookmarks are still living in the middle of:

Our Mutual Friend by Charles Dickens
Great Lakes Nature by Mary Blocksma (this is going to take me all year as I read her year's entries on the corresponding days of this year)
Cutting For Stone by Abraham Verghese
Destiny Unleashed by Sherryl Woods
