It's Monday! What Are You Reading? - Jan 14

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 and comment, and er... add to that ever growing TBR pile! So welcome in everyone. This meme started with J Kaye's Blog and then was taken up by Sheila from Book Journey. Sheila then passed it on to Kathryn at the Book Date.

It is Monday again. Time passes so quickly as you get older. It's been a bit of a tough week around here. We lost a neighbor and friend suddenly and unexpectedly. She was my age, which might be part of why it seems so hard for me to wrap my head around. It doesn't quite seem possible or real yet.

As such, I didn't get as much reading done as planned. I also seem to have overbooked myself for reviews this month. Is that always fun? Thankfully, I finished the first book I had to read early.

Duffy Brown never disappoints, so I knew this would be a great read. I also loved the larger font that was used for this one, which made it easy on the eyes too.

Then I started this one.

I also need to squeeze in these two.

Then finally this one for the month. No idea how this is all happening, but I'll figure it out. 

I'm also still trying to spend time with my first book of the year.

What are you reading right now? Did you finish your first book of the year yet?
