It's Monday! What Are You Reading? and Mailbox Monday - May 25

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. 

Welcome back to Monday. Hope you enjoyed your week.

We are expecting a wet Memorial Day. At least I don't have to water the garden. Our son also turns 39 today. Not sure how that happened since I am only 25. LOL! Crazy how quickly time flies. 

Not many pictures from last week because I was working my tail off. I have numerous listings coming, plus two closings in early June. 

Something caught Theo's eye on our walk.

The phlox is coming in nicely this year.

You will find Travis wherever there is an empty box.

As far as reading goes, I finished Scrap: Salvaging a Family by Luann Castle last week. You can see my review here. 

I also finished Co-Created: The Cultural Strategy That Redefined Pacsun by Brieane Olson. You can read my review here. 

I continued The Ladies Hall by Vanessa Miller. I am quickly running out of NetGalley time. 

Need to write a review of Hi Honey, I'm Homo: Sitcoms, Specials, and the Queering of American Culture by Matt Baume. 

I will pick up The Ledger by Steven Manchester, a companion to his novel The Menu, this week. 

I started The Eyes of River by Cindy K. Sproles.

These are next:

Staged by Caitlin Rother, which is the sequel to Hooked

Love on the Shelf by Sheila Roberts comes out later this month. 

The Ghost and the Key is the first book in Bill Cusano's The Old Cranberry Ladies Garden Club series. I am reading this series this summer. 

The second book of The Old Cranberry Ladies Garden Club is The Widow Murderess. 

Book three is The Sparrow and the Crow. All of these are July reviews. 

Massawa by Pam Weber is a book that I will take on vacation with me in July.

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. 

Do you know what happens when you agree to be on a launch team and then your work schedule gets out of control? This is my life right now. 

The Eyes of River by Cindy K. Sproles arrived on Friday. I am two chapters in and loving it. 

I visited the library on Wednesday and saw The Secret Lives of Booksellers and Librarians by James Patterson. Not that I will have any time to read it, but I might at least skim it before I need to bring it back to the library.

Joyce McCullough sent me a copy of Max and Her Stacks to review.
