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


This meme is newly hosted by Sheila at One Person's Journey Through a World of Books. I read a bit and reviewed a bit both this week. I still feel like I'm busily playing catch-up though. In addition to reviews, this week will include a giveaway (see previous post if you are curious what book that will be) so be sure to check back frequently and see when I manage to get it posted. :-)

Books I completed this week are:

The Sexual Life of Catherine M. by Catherine Millet
The Return by Victoria Hislop
Eternal on the Water by Jospeh Monninger
American Daughter by Elizabeth Kendall

Bookmarks are still living in the middle of:

The Far Pavilions by M.M. Kaye
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)
The Bread of Angels by Stephanie Saldana

Reviews posted this week:

Dog Years by Mark Doty
Viva Cisco by Patrick Shannon
The Summer We Fell Apart by Robin Antalek
The Naked Duke by Sally MacKenzie
Inside the Postal Bus by Michael Barry
The Sexual Life of Catherine M. by Catherine Millet

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

Eternal on the Water by Jospeh Monninger
American Daughter by Elizabeth Kendall

  6. You do have your work cut out for you. I would be curious to see what you think of Far Pavilions. I tried to read it wayyy back when 1978 to be exact. Needless to say I never finished it...

  9. Read your review of Dog Days. Your response is similar to others I've seen.

    Eternal on the Water is one everyone is talking about; I look forward to your review.

    Hope you have a great week.

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.
