It's Monday! What Are You Reading?

It's been a crazy week for me. I started the week sicker than a dog and unmotivated to do anything other than lay in bed and read. Then when I started to feel better again, I finally painted the powder room bathroom. The paint has only been sitting in there for months now. Once I got a second coat of paint up, I needed to wash out the roller and paintbrush so I finally tackled the disaster that is the laundry room since I needed the stationary tub to be empty enough to clean up the paint mess I'd made. I still have more house projects, several that people will see (like the bathroom paint job) and several they won't (like the laundry room clean sweep) but I also need to buckle down and write some reviews as well. And to that end, I'm asking blog readers to let me know which of the books I have in that appallingly extensive list of unreviewed reads they'd most like to see finished up. So take a look and let me know. This meme is hosted by Sheila at Book Journey.

Books I completed this past week are:

A Farm Dies Once a Year by Arlo Crawford
First Impressions by Charlie Lovett
A Fork in the Road edited by James Oseland
Marching to Zion by Mary Glickman
Flirting with French by William Alexander
