It's Monday! What are you Reading?

Welcome to It’s Monday!  What Are You Reading!  This great meme is hosted by Sheila (bookjourney). This is a great way to plan out your reading week and see what others are currently reading as well… you never know where that next “must read” book will come from!
I love being a part of this and I hope you do too!  As part of this weekly meme I love to encourage you all to go and visit the others participating in this meme. 

I recently finished reading The Amazing Action Alphabet flip card and sing a long cd by Esther Kehl 

and The Red Queen by Philippa Gregory for last months book club read. 
I am almost done with Don't You Forget About Me by Suzanne Jenkins. Review up tomorrow:)
I have been reading but haven't finished reading anything because...I spread myself too far with my reading.
I've been mainly focusing on The Parchement Society's read for this month: Eat Pray Love and Don't You Forget About Me but I have also been reading Whole by Lisa Whittle, Fifty Shades of Gery and The Shadow of Your Smile by Susan May Warren. So far they are all really good :) 
The Shadow of Your Smile (Deep Haven, #6)After I finish these I plan on reading the second book in the Grey series (Fifty Shades Darker), Dancing in the Storm and Last of the Seals by Greg Messel. I read his other work The Illusion of Certainty and could not put it down. I really like his writing so when I saw another opportunity to read his newest book I had to take it! 


Who else has been reading the Fifty Shades of Grey Trilogy? I've been getting mixed reviews on it.

I need to read some Phillippa Gregory books! They sound so good! And I'm not going to read the 50 Shades series, since it sounds like erotica, and that's one of the very few genres I will not read as a main genre. Sub genres, sure, but not main genre :) Thanks for stopping by! Happy reading!

The Shadow of Your Smile seems like it would cool you off on one of these hot days! Have a great week!

I'm curious about the 50 Shades of Grey...but not enough to read the books. Maybe later.

Thanks for visiting my blog.

Looks like some good reading. I liked Eat Pray Love. Haven't read 50 Shades, yet, but I'm considering it.

Lettie said...

Love your books!
Especially Red Queen- Philippa Gregory is on my TBR list :)
I'm not reading Fifty Shades of Grey- more because it seems too popular too actually be good!

Yvonne said...

I read the first book of the Fifty Shades trilogy. I wasn't impressed with it, but maybe I'll dry again with the second book.

Staci said...

Wow! You really do have a lot of books juggling right now!! I loved Eat,Love, and Pray and yes, I will admit to liking the 50 books!!

Bonnie said...

Wow, looks like you have a lot on your reading plate! I haven't read the Fifty Shades series, I had the opportunity to review it when it originally came out with TWCS Publishing House last year and it didn't sound like something that I needed to read. And now I haven't really heard anything great enough about it to make me want to pick it up. :/

Thanks for stopping by my blog this week!

Sorry it's taken me so long to reply - it's been one of those weeks.
Haven't read this one but it looks great.
Have a wonderful weekend.

I read the 50 shades books because all my mom-friends were talking about them. My reaction was -- meh. If you love the romance genre, you will probably enjoy them...

Sue Jackson said...

Wow, you do have a lot of books going at once! And an interesting mix, too.

Thanks for stopping by my blogs and taking the time to comment - nice to "meet" you!

Enjoy your books this week -

I haven't picked up the Red Queen yet, I have mixed feelings about Philippa Gregory so I haven't been sure if I want to read it or not. Hope you enjoyed it, I'll have to look for your review!
