It's Monday! What Are You Reading?

I still have a lot of stuff to put away from Christmas and a host of things on the to-do list but reading and reviewing turns out to be a reasonable stalling technique.  Then again, so does getting sick and wanting to do nothing more than sleep.  This meme is hosted by Sheila at Book Journey.

Books I completed this past week are:

Three Men in a Boat by Jerome K. Jerome
Parlor Games by Maryka Biaggio

Bookmarks are still living in the middle of:

On the Map by Simon Garfield
The Link by Colin Tudge

Reviews posted this week:

His Mistress by Christmas by Victoria Alexander
Three Men in a Boat by Jerome K. Jerome
Parlor Games by Maryka Biaggio
I Want to Kill the Dog by Richard Cohen
The Lighthouse Road by Peter Geye

Books still needing to have reviews written (as opposed to the ones that are simply awaiting posting):

    I agree - reading & blogging are such effective stalling techniques :-)

    I've been reading on Three Men in a Boat for years. I would probably need to start over. Now I'm off to read your review and see if I should bother....

    Here’s my It's Monday! What Are You Reading? I hope you will stop by! And Happy New Year!

    I recently read Parlor Games, haven't reviewed it yet though. I really REALLY liked On the Map, I hope you're enjoying it!

    Happy Reading!

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.
