Sheila at Book Journey runs It's Monday! What Are You Reading?
Well, it seems a long time ago since last Monday. I really enjoyed being part of the first book of the year. So let me think what I read through the week.
I finished listening to:Angels' Blood
Found this a little difficult to listen to as I dream off while listening sometimes and I couldn't afford to do that with a complex world building beginning to a series.
I read:
Because of You the first in the Coming Home series. I also read two novellas from this series as well.
At present:
I am reading a graphic novel - spurred on by The Eclectic Reading Challenge!
The Exile by Diana Gabaldon.
Next up:
A book by Rachael Johns - Outback Dreams
The Luminaries by Eleanor Caton - again The Eclectic Reader Challenge has encouraged me to try this one - a little anxious about it! I thought it a good week to start it as I am taking part in the Bout o' Books week.
Extra! Extra! Just noticed Barbara Claypole White is giving about US and International copy of The In-Between Hour, over on Facebook do enter if you haven't read it. I loved it. Closes January 9th.
It looks like you had a very successful week. I have read Angels' Blood and Archangel's Kiss and have the audiobooks too. I haven't listened yet. I can see where you would need to pay close attention to the world building. You can see my plans for the week here. Have a great week!
ReplyDeleteGood luck with the Luminaries - I passed it on to my mother LOL.
ReplyDeleteHave a fab reading week

Archangel's Kiss sounds great. Enjoy your reads this week!
ReplyDeleteTake a look at what I'm reading this week.
I find really complex stories easier to follow when reading rather than listening. Enjoy Outback Dreams. I'm looking forward to The Inbetween Hour, looking forward to your review of that one :)
ReplyDeleteHave a great week and happy reading!
I've considered Luminaries this week. I will look forward to your review. I hope you enjoy all of your new books.
ReplyDeleteI'm intrigued about Luminaries. But its length is daunting for me.
ReplyDeleteHere's my It's Monday!
I don't think I'd do well on audio...I am easily distracted. Reading keeps me focused (most of the time! lol).
ReplyDeleteEnjoy...and I love the look of The In-Between Hour. Here's MY WEEKLY SUNDAY/MONDAY UPDATES
Wonderful looking reads!
ReplyDeleteThis is my first time visiting your blog - love all the purples! Looks like you have some great reads lined up! Happy Reading!
ReplyDeleteI have seen The Luminaries on a few blogs.
ReplyDeleteENJOY all your books and your week. We are FREEZING here with below zero temperatures, but not as bad as some places.
STAY WARM if you are in this deep freeze.

My It's Monday, What Are You Reading
Nalini Singh is pretty awesome - but totally agree with you on the world building :)
ReplyDeleteHappy Reading This Week!! The Brunette Librarian's Blog
Loved The Exile, because it was an Outlander book! I agree, it is best to read a world building book rather than listen. Have a great week.
ReplyDeleteLooks like you had a busy week. Happy reading.
