Its Monday! What Are You Reading?

Sheila at Book Journey runs It's Monday! What Are You Reading?

The last meme for 2013!  A special thanks to Sheila for running this meme.  I find lots of ideas for reading each week through it.  I am looking forward to her First Read of 2014 meme.  I am sure I will find more reading ideas from it.

This past week:
Well I didn't read as much as I could have, I have been online reading blogs, learning things and watching video tutorials on PicMonkey and trying out things. So easy for the hours to fly by!
Great read

Very enjoyable too.

At present I am reading:
The In-Between Hour by Barbara Claypole White

and I am still listening to:
Angel's Blood by Nalini Singh
I aim to finish both of the above by the 31st December - New Zealand time.

Next Up:

Will be my first book of the year for 2014 which I will share on Sheila at Book Journey's meme:
  • 2014 First Book of the Year.
This past week I celebrated my first Blogoversary, do hop over and join the Giveaway - no hoops to jump! Just a click away.

    Haha! I fail at PicMonkey so I have been watching tutorials, too. Probably the same ones! It's such a time suck..lol.

    Oh ... Blackberry Winter and While We Were Watching Downton Abbey sound fantastic. I'm such a Downton junkie!

    Congratulations on your first blogiversary!

      Thanks Jaime. Today I learned how to make a transparent background in PicMonkey, so now I am really happy!

    I downloaded PicMonkey and haven't a clue about how to use it. I'll have to look for the tutorials. Come see my Monday Report here. Happy reading and happy new year!

      PicMonkey actually doesn't have to be downloaded - perhaps another software tool? Tutorials are great - but i need to be careful as I had an email warning me that I had reached 80% of broadband usage for this month! Roll on the 4th Jan!

    I enjoy experimenting with PicMonkey, too...haven't watched any tutorials.

    I also loved Blackberry Winter and While We Were Watching Downton Abbey. Enjoy the New Year, and thanks for visiting my blog.

    I have heard good things about Blackberry Winter - I really have to read it soon!

    It is so while away hours, putzing around online and reading blogs. Its a time sink for me. Lol.

      I have sunk so much time I am over my allowance for Broadband for the month. Have 5 days to go on extra payment, so will be keeping usage down - somewhat!
