It's Monday! What Are You Reading?


What Are You Reading, is where we gather to share what we have read this past week and what we plan to read this week.  It is a great way to network with other bloggers, see some wonderful blogs, and put new titles on your reading list.  Click on the picture to be taken to Sheila at One Person's Journey Through A World of Books!

I love it when I finish off a pile of books and don't even realize how fast I've read them!  I started the week reading The Iron Daughter by Julie Kagawa.  I really enjoyed it and can't wait for more!  I want more of Ash.

Next, I read Chasing Brooklyn by Lisa Schroeder.  I've never read anything by her (or anything written in verse).  I was surprised at how well the story was told using this method.  And you really feel the emotions.

I started Moonstone by Marilee Brothers next.  It was an okay story.  Interesting premise but not fully connected with the characters yet.  I'm hoping the next in the series is better.

I was able to read Saving Maddie by Varian Johnson next.  I was unsure of the religious aspect of this book at first.  But, it plays into the story beautifully.  I think it does a good job of pointing on that views on what's morally right and wrong is created equal and that one isn't more right that the other.  I really loved this story.

I started A Breath of Snow and Ashes by Diana Gabaldon and got a good chunk of it read.  I'll continue on with it for the rest of the month.  Tonight I will start Torment by Lauren Kate.  I'm also hoping to read  A Lion Among Men by Gregory Maguire and Moon Rise by Marilee Brothers.  If there is time, I will read The Scarpetta Factor by Patricia Cornwell.

  1. Lisa Schroeder is amazing, she is what made me fall in love with Verse Novels but no one is a good as her so far, I heart you, You haunt me was my favourite.

    I have Scarpetta to read.
