Welcome to It's Monday! What Are You Reading? and Mailbox Monday.
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.
Welcome back! We have arrived at the last Monday of September. The weather has turned cooler. We had some rain last week--which we needed. Fall is in the air. The Lil' Princess is missing the change, so I will need to send her some photos of the color changes as they happen. At the end of this week, hubby and I will travel to Wilmington to pay her a visit.
With a bit of extra time in my schedule last week, I talked about the progress made--or not made--on the bookish promises I created in January. Also on the blog last week was my review of Big Red.
I reviewed this upcoming children's picture book at my children's book blog. You can review the review here.
I finished this business/leadership book for my September 28 review.
I also read four of the oldest books on my free Kindle book list. Reviews appear at Amazon and Goodreads.
A First Chapter Review of this middle grade fantasy novel will appear tomorrow at The Children's and Teens' Book Connection.
Still enjoying this seasonal short story collection.
I started this Christian mentorship guidebook to prepare for my review on October 28.
I will be reviewing this young adult novel on October 19 at The Children's and Teens' Book Connection.
I will review this historical novel on October 20.
I have these tours coming up in November, because you already knew I couldn't resist.
Still hoping to read these soon.
Mailbox Monday is the gathering place for readers to share the books that came in their mailbox during the last week. Warning: Mailbox Monday can lead to envy, toppling TBR piles and humongous wish lists.
Nothing in my mailbox, but I am waiting on this one that I pre-ordered.
The only way she’ll find home
is by leaving it…
The one thing Becca Yoder loves more than Christmas is her dream of leaving her Amish community and traveling the world. Becca has her father’s reluctant permission to leave—if she trains Gideon Fisher to run the family’s enormous outdoor market. But Gideon is homesick for Texas. Can Becca make him fall in love with her hometown…without falling for the handsome bachelor herself?
That is it for me. I have an early morning meeting, but I will visit blogs once I return.
Nice looking assortment of books. I've set a goal of reading the oldest on my physical bookshelves and have just 2 left of the books I got in 2008. Then I'll begin to whittle down the 32 print books I got in 2009 and haven't read yet. Come see my week here. Happy reading!
ReplyDeleteYou have some great looking books. Enjoy the rest of the month.
ReplyDeleteI had a look at your bookish promises, they are great and I like the idea of promises. I guess really we make plans and do our best with them. I made goals and I went really well up until August and then the wheels came off when I picked up too many review books at NG.
ReplyDeleteKathy, you amaze me with how much you accomplish.
ReplyDeleteLaurel, hope you enjoy the rest of your month as well. How is it almost October?
Kathryn, the best laid plans...we can all only do what we can.
Thanks for visiting today, everyone!
It's feeling like fall here too. We had a very abrupt change from sunny warm days to cool and 50's!
ReplyDeleteThanks for your comment over on my blog. :)
So much variety in your mailbox. I hope you enjoy your reading this week. Fall has definitely arrived in my area (upper midwest) and we had to turn the furnace on over the weekend!
ReplyDeleteFall is fun, Greg, but sudden changes leave you without the right clothes. :)
ReplyDeleteMary, I had to break down and turn on the heat one day, too. A bit too early for me.
Thanks for visiting today!
Many interesting books on your list. I hope you enjoy them.
ReplyDeleteHave a great week!
Thanks, Yvonne. I appreciate you stopping by.
ReplyDeleteI'm on the blog tour for An Amish Proposal for Christmas! I love Vannetta's stories! Good luck getting everything read that you have on your list Cheryl!💜
ReplyDeleteLooks like you got some reading in last week.
ReplyDeleteHope you enjoy some cooler weather and a good visit to see your daughter.
Happy Reading.
Enjoy your trip. And happy reading.
ReplyDeleteThat's quite a book collection. Enjoy!
