It's Monday! What Are You Reading?


I'm getting a late start on this today. I went away for the weekend with some girlfriends, and just got back this afternoon. We had a fabulous weekend hanging out in Myrtle Beach, SC. They ran a half marathon on Sunday and I cheered them on. They both did great! Anyway, here's a quick update on what I've been up to with reading.

I read and reviewed Insignificant Moments by Jeremy Asher, which I really enjoyed. I also have a giveaway going on for a book I haven't read yet but am looking forward to reading: When No One is Watching by Joe Hayes.

I listened to On Writing: A Memoir of the Craft by Stephen King on my ride to and from SC. Unfortunately, I had some issues with skipping and one of the seven CDs was completely unreadable, so I missed portions of the book. I plan to take the book out of the library so I can read what I missed. I really enjoyed it but want to read the entire thing before reviewing it.

Currently Reading
I'm currently reading Tales from a Spanish Village by Richard A. Barrett. This wasn't on my Up Next list last week, but I just felt like reading it. I'm about halfway through it, and will be offering another copy as a giveaway later this week. It's my last blogiversary celebration giveaway so it will go through the end of the month.

Up Next
Next, I'm going to read The Kitchen House by Kathleen Grissom, which is my November book club selection.
