It's Monday! What Are You Reading? - Jul 1

Welcome to It's Monday! What Are You Reading?

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 to the first Monday in July! We are sitting in the beach house in North Carolina, while a storm rumbles through. We are expecting to have an indoor activity day today. The weather is should be nice otherwise, so we can't complain.

Because we had to take two cars down instead of one--thanks to the insurance company who won't offer a rental the same as my Buick while my car is repaired--I couldn't read anything on the drive down. However, I finished one book last night. This is a short story collection. I enjoyed the first story, wasn't a fan of the second one, and thought the last story was okay. My review will be posted on July 3rd.

Also on my to-do list this week is an editing project that needs to be done. I'm also a beta reader for a local author friend whose novel I need to provide feedback on. 

I've got five days to finish this book from NetGalley.

Should be writing my review of these two during vacation.

I started this one yesterday.

These are also on my list to read while here.
