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 an opportunity to visit other blogs and to comment on their reads. And ... you can add to that ever growing TBR pile! So welcome 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. And here we are!
**************************************
It's been a slow reading week for me this week. Seems like I've been so busy at work and when I get home, we hang out on the patio enjoying the last of the nice days that by the time we come in, I'm too tired to read. Gasp!! How does that even happen. I guess I'm in what is called a 'reading slump.' The book I am reading now is for my book club this week and it's just not grabbing me. But I know I have to get it read—I'm finding other things to do besides read.
And.... we did have another weekend full of grandkiddos with some major family time coming up all next weekend. This is such a busy time for us right now. I want my reading life back to normal!

It is hard when the book you're supposed to read isn't the one you want to read. I hope you end up enjoying it. Come see my week here. Happy reading!
ReplyDeleteHi Kathy - It's been an okay book. It'll be interesting to see what the other members think of it. It's really off from what we usually try to read. Thanks for stopping by.
DeleteI will want to read the deMaio but have lots of her back books to catch up on first. When I have a book I am resisting I read it for 10 -15 min and then I feel I have done something! But sounds like you just need to rest and enjoy the last of summer.
ReplyDeleteHi Kathryn - I just love Joanne's books and they are nice to escape into. I have about 30 pages left of the book I don't want to read and I am already thinking about all the books I can read next! Thanks for stopping by.
DeleteIt's been a slow reading week for me too. I did read and enjoy The Zookeeper's Wife a few years ago. Come see what I'm reading
ReplyDeleteIt is turning out to be better at the end than when I first started it. I do seem to be drawn to books about that time period. It'll be interesting to see what the others think of it. Happy reading!
DeleteI've been in a slump since I went back to work in September. I know things will settle down but I miss just having time to sit around and read. I've read a few of the J.D. Robb series and enjoyed them but I got away from the series for whatever reason. Maybe I'll grab another one soon. Enjoy your week!

My Monday Post
I loved the Zookeeper's Wife. WWII is one of my favorite historical fiction eras and I worked as a zookeeper for a while so I was really drawn to the book for those reasons. Girl Who Reads
