It's Monday! What Are You Reading? and Mailbox Monday - Apr 6

It's Monday! What Are You Reading? is a place to meet up and share what you have been, are, and about to be reading over the week. It's a great post to organize yourself. It's an opportunity to visit, comment, and add to that ever-growing TBR pile! So welcome, everyone. This meme started with J Kaye's Blog and was then taken up by Sheila from Book Journey. Sheila then passed it on to Kathryn at the Book Date. 

Happy Monday! Hope you had a lovely weekend. We celebrated Easter this Sunday with most of the family. The Lil' Princess couldn't fly home because of her school schedule. I spent two days cooking and baking, which I enjoyed. Here are a few photos from this weekend:

I bought flowers to brighten our table

Most of us

Theo was not happy with the chaos

In my reading world, I finished Agatha Christie, She Watched by Teresa Peschel. Great book! Look for my review on April 15. 

I have Murder, Local Style by Leslie Karst downloaded on NetGalley. I didn't read it last week, but I am reading it this week so I can stay on top of reviews. 

The 4 Disciplines of Execution by Chris McChesney, Sean Covey, and Jim Huling was a DNF for me. I couldn't make it through the beginning. 

I continued with This is Not About Us by Allegra Goodman, which many people have raved about. The narrator is growing on me. 

I started Scrap: Salvaging a Family by Luann Castle.

These are next:

The Ledger by Steven Manchester, which is a companion to his novel, The Menu

Staged by Caitlin Rother, which is the sequel to Hooked

Mailbox Monday is a gathering place for readers to share the books they added to their shelves the previous week. This weekly meme is now hosted by Vicki at I'd Rather Be At The Beach. 

I received a copy of this book from the author. She is an agent in my local market.
