It’s time once again for Kathryn’s weekly meme, “It’s Monday! What are You Reading?” hosted at Book Date, where we share what we’re reading and have read over the past week.
What I Read Last Week
I read 7 books – two historical romances, a non-fiction, 2 chap books/MG novels and 2 pix books.
When a Duchess Says I Do by Grace Burrowes. Another wonderful historical romance, part of another enjoyable series.
An Offer From a Gentleman by Julia Quinn. The third book in the Bridgerton series which I am enjoying.
The Well-Gardened Mind by Sue Stuart-Smith . I have been reading this for my book club and finally finished it. A fascinating read, a strong case for the power of nature, of gardens.
A Day of Signs and Wonders by Kit Pearson. A fun imaginary tale of two young artists (Emily Carr and Kathleen Reilly) meeting and spending a day together.
Starla Jean by Elaine K. Arnold, illus by A.N. Kang. A cute story.
What Would You Do in a Book About You by Jean Reidy, illus. by Joey Chou. What would a book about you be like? Fun answers.
M is for Masterpiece by David Domeniconi, illus. by Will Bullas, A wonderful look at great art, with lots of info for parents and teachers to enhance the read.
What I’m Reading Now
For Connect 5 Friday, I had a list of 5 books I started this week but just couldn’t get into. I hope to read at least a couple this week, although a couple need to be returned to the library.
Wild at Heart by K.A. Tucker
Love Your Life by Sophie Kinsella
What’s Up Next
The Lightning Thief by Rick Riordan
The Comfort Book by Matt Haig (Enjoying this a few entries at a time)
A Day of Signs and Wonders sounds neat. Hope you are well and have a nice week. 🙂
Thanks Greg. A good book for a study of artists in a classroom especially
Hmm the Matthew Haig book sounds interesting, I did read The Midnight Library, this one sounds more like bits to reflect on. Love those historicals. So good.
thanks Kathryn. The Haig book is non-fiction – filled with thoughtful words and insights.
Impressive.
Thanks so much.
Look like a great list. I need to check out your book club choice I think ours would like it.
Thanks Lisa. It has been a slow read but very informative and interesting.
Nice looking assortment of books. I’ve been rereading a lot lately since I’m well ahead on my review stack. Come see my week here.Happy reading!
Thanks kathy. Those rereads this year and last have been very comforting. Happy reading to you as well.
I’ve had my eye on the Julia Quinn books. Enjoy your week, and here are my WEEKLY UPDATES
Thanks Laurel-Rain. I haven’t seen the Bridgerton series yet but it got me interested in seeing what the book series was like. And I’m enjoying it.
Sadly I have a black thumb, even my plastic plants suffer.
Wishing you a great reading week
That’s me too Shelleyrae. I just do what I’m told – it’s my hubby who has the green thumb. Have a great reading week yourself
