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 a great post to organise yourself. It's an opportunity to visit and comment, and er... add to that ever growing TBR pile! So welcome in 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!
Hope you all had a good reading week and otherwise as well. Our summer continues to be hot, I feel a little dozy as I write this!
My TV decoder box went on the blink very suddenly on Friday evening in the middle of a show I was enjoying so Monday afternoon I will have a technician here to return me to normality. In the meantime there is always Netflix!
What I read last week:
I had a reasonably good week of reading and was especially charmed by Jennifer Ashley's Death Below Stairs. I will certainly look forward to where she might take this series and I so want to know more about the mysterious Daniel.
What I am reading at present:
After being the first reader to read Death Below Stairs from a local library I then received a message to say Blood Fury was available for me. While I'm not the first for this one, it is still a gorgeous, hardback, near new - so I decided to dive right in this one next.
I am still listening to The Denim Blue Sea by Joanne DeMaio - I need to get a bit more of a move on into it.
Up next:
A review book is next up, and I am always happy to read a Jodi Thomas book so I look forward to it.

Love the look of Mornings on Main. And I hope you love Denim Blue Sea. Thanks for sharing (and hosting), and for visiting my blog.
ReplyDeleteI'm glad to hear you enjoyed Death Below Stairs. It is a book I'm really looking forward to reading this year.
ReplyDeleteHopefully you'll get things fixed soon. Have a good week.
ReplyDeleteI can't believe the heat you're getting - when I visited back in October it was cold and wet, it rained every day! I certainly could use a bit of heat right now!
ReplyDeleteHope the box is fixed and operating! Thank goodness for Netflix. Enjoy that warm weather, we are expecting a snowstorm this week.
ReplyDeleteA good mix this week, Kathryn. Sorry it's been so hot for you this summer. I just finished my post that will publish at midnight PST.
ReplyDeleteLooks like you had a busy reading week. Thank you for hosting.
ReplyDeleteDeath Below Stairs looks really good to me, I have to get that one. And thank goodness for Netflix, right? Ha ha hope you have a good week. Maybe send some of that heat our way- we're waiting for a warm up! :)
ReplyDeleteI read another great review for Death Below Stairs. I'm tempted to add it to my huge TBR pile. Crosby's book looks good too. Enjoy your reading week!
ReplyDeleteWell - less TV could mean more reading. :-) I have never read J.R. Ward. I do enjoy Jodi Thomas. Happy Reading!
ReplyDeleteBusy week. Here it's hot and humid with a few showers on and off. Read g is in a bit of a lull but I like to see what's going on in the reading world
ReplyDeleteThank goodness for Netflix, right? Whew! I hope all is repaired soon! Mornings on Main looks really cute; I hope you enjoy it and have a great week!
ReplyDeleteI love Netflix! I hope your TV gets fixed soon, though. Great books on your list. That Jodi Thomas book looks so good. Enjoy and have a great week.
ReplyDeleteBummer about the TV. Hope it is fixed quickly. Death Below Stairs sounds great and combines two of my favorite genres--historical and mystery. Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteI enjoyed Blood Fury! I'm watching How I Met Your Mother series on Netflix. I never did finish it when it was on cable, so I'm enjoying it now!
ReplyDeleteHave a great week! We are under a blanket of snow. I need to get out there and shovel so that I can get the car out! We have a Colorado Low hitting us.
I enjoyed Death Below Stairs too and also want to know much more about Daniel. It has been a while since I've read J. R. Ward. I should catch up. Happy reading and hope the TV is fixed soon.
ReplyDeleteDEATH BELOW THE STAIRS would be something I would like too.
ReplyDeleteI read BELOW THE STAIRS by Margaret Powell who is/was an actual maid. I loved it.
Thanks for sharing, and have an enjoyable week.
Great list Kathryn, I'm listening to Blood Fury right now and have Jennifer Ashely's on my list. Happy Monday!
ReplyDeleteI'm looking forward to your review of the Jodi Thomas book. She's on my list of authors that I would like to read at some point.
ReplyDeleteGlad you ended up enjoying your first-chance library book! Hot weather sounds rather nice right now - we had a big storm Friday (and lost a tree :( ) and we have another one headed our way tomorrow. I'm ready for spring!
ReplyDeleteEnjoy your books & your summer!

I am so pleased that you loved the Jennifer Ashley book. It should be a wonderful series! Have a great reading week!
ReplyDeleteI'm currently listening to Bonds of Justice by Nalini Singh & reading Tempted & Taken by Rhenna Morgan.
ReplyDeleteI so want to read the Ashley one
ReplyDeleteI finished Blood Fury this week. I loved it!
ReplyDeleteI recently finished reading The Perfect Nanny. Now I’m reading: Hummus and Homicide by Tina Kashian; Watching Glass Shatter by James Cudney; Down in the Valley by Robyn Carr.
ReplyDeleteI really need to try a Jodi Thomas book. That cover is lovely too!
I just got my first Jodi Thomas book-Beneath the Texan Sky,looking forward to reading it!!
ReplyDeleteI'm so glad you enjoyed Death Below Stairs. I loved it and it's definitely a series I'll be following. Hopefully you'll have TV up and running soon. Our modem went out this past weekend but luckily it was something I could exchange on my own. Waiting for service people takes forever! Hope you're having a great week!
ReplyDeleteJ.R. Ward has been on my reading list for awhile now. Her covers are gorgeous!
