It's Monday! What Are You Reading? - Sep 23

 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.    

Happy Monday and welcome to fall! Saturday was more of a fall day for us here in Massachusetts. Windy, a bit cloudy, and cool for the Rick's Place Annual Golf Classic, but we still had fun. 


Went grocery shopping on Friday and saw that the local Walmart is already well into Christmas decorations.


Leaves are already falling here. This is from Saturday as well.


And in case you are wondering why I'm not blogging more lately, here you will find me at my fourth inspection of last week. 


No day off for me last week, but I will have some time coming at the beginning of October when we go back to North Carolina. 

Here is what my reading world looks like. 



Read my review of these two here.



I also reviewed this one yesterday. You can read that here


I finished this one on Audible. It was good, but the abundance of cursing drove me batty. I guess the title should have been my first clue. 



I am reading this one for an October 2nd review. 


I started this one for my October 16th review.


I started this NetGalley download.



This one is next. 


I want to finish this one, too. Maybe on the plane to North Carolina. 



I also need to figure out what other book I will bring with me. I'll probably spend more time in an airport than in NC, but I like to have plenty of reading material. 

Upcoming events:
  • Side Launch by Brock Martin - October 2 (Review)
  • The Merry Matchmaker by Sheila Roberts - October 16 (Review)
  • A Celtic Yuletide Carol by Jennifer Ivy Walker - November 20 (Review)


I am looking to review Christmas picture books, chapter books, and clean romance novellas this year. You can check out what other products I'm looking for here.

You can read the latest Christmas news at the Christmas Year Round blog. Lots of fun Christmas news. You can check out my latest post here.

Looking forward to visiting your blogs today and seeing what you are reading. Hope you have a wonderful day!

Janette Oke. There's a name from the past. I read a few of her books, but I never read any in that series. Which is ironic since it's her longest and most popular.

Interesting assortment of books. I hope your work crush lets up enough to give you some time to read. Come see my week here. Happy reading!

And I haven't read any of her other books either, Mark. Did you know there was another series featuring the Davis family? I found it on eBay. Thanks for visiting today.

Thanks, Kathy. I hope so. I would love a day off soon. Thanks for visiting today.

I can't say I'm surprised to see ornaments and Christmas trees up, but it didn't seem that long ago that spring stuff was out. Thanks for visiting today, Kathryn.

It is so far, Colletta. Hope you have a nice week. Thanks for visiting!

Fall has started here, but so far, everything is still pretty green. I really appreciate the cooler nights. It looks like you are reading some fabulous books, even if you have been very busy otherwise.
