It's Monday! What Are You Reading?


Good morning. The coffee is brewing and I'm ready to start my day. Hopefully work won't be too crazy today. We had a fun weekend, spending time at the pool and hanging out with our goddaughter.

I got a lot of reading done last week. I finished Flesh and Bones by Paul Levine. The review will be up tomorrow for the book tour.

I also read Simply Genius! by Ervin Laszlo. I need to write my review of that memoir later this week.

I reviewed Counting from Zero by Alan B. Johnston, a techno-thriller that was a bit too technical for me, but you you might like it. And I reviewed some children's books in my What My Children Are Reading post this weekend.

Finally, I put up my June month in review post, in case you're wondering what I read and reviewed in June.

Currently Reading
I'm now reading Predators of Darkness: Aftermath by Leonard Hilley.

Up Next
Next, I'm going to read one of the many NetGalley books I have on my Nook. I'm just not sure which one yet.

What are you reading this week? This meme is being hosted by Sheila at Book Journey, so hop over there if you'd like to see what others are reading too.

Getting back to blogging

It seems that blogging has dropped to the bottom of my list for the past year, and was pretty low for the year or two prior to that. I love to read, and am continuing to do so, but as my regular readers know I haven't been around much. My last blog post was almost a year ago!!

There are many things that have taken me away from blogging. Work has been much more challenging and interesting these past few years, but that means I really don't want to get back on the computer when I get home at night - or on the weekends.

Family life has been more busy with kids having multiple activities in the evenings, leaving little time to just hang out and write about the books that I read.

I will admit to a bit of a Facebook addiction, which means way too much time spent scrolling through my newsfeed instead of doing something more productive. This is one of the things I'm working on and hoping that this will free up some time for getting back to the blog.

Overall, life is good. Work is …
