It's Monday! What Are You Reading?

badge

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!

Jen Vincent, Teach Mentor Texts, and Kellee of Unleashing Readers decided to give It’s Monday! What Are You Reading? a kidlit focus. If you read and review books in children’s literature – picture books, chapter books, middle grade novels, young adult novels, anything in the world of kidlit – join them!

I am on the road again for a few days as I am travelling to Rotorua as I am one of the executors of my sister's will. I'll meet up with Bernadette my sister in Wanganui about two hours drive from here and then we will go on in her car.  The weather is quite moderate so there should be no snow around and we will be up and back before we know it.   No doubt I'll still get some time to visit your blogs and do a little reading.

I am thinking of changing over to Google+ for commenting as it does work a little like Wordpress in that commenters get notified of comments returned, although I am not so sure how it works if you don't have a Google+ profile.  Any thoughts on that?  I might turn it on for a week after this post and see how it goes.                                            

What I read last week:

What I am reading at present:

And still listening to the Joe Biden memoir. Should finish that on the road trip for the section I am driving by myself.

Up next:

A  book right off my own self. Alleluia!

  5. Have a safe trip. Not sure on the Google+ thing. I haven't turned it on. Change isn't always my thing.

  6. Safe travels! I think the Joe Biden memoir would be really interesting. And The Bookshop of Yesterdays looks interesting!

  7. I need to look at the settings for my blog as the recent changes have messed everything up. My blog posts should automatically show on Google+ but not the comments...I'll have to look at that. I'm sorry for your loss and have a safe journey.

  8. The problem with G+ is that if you don't have a G+ profile you can't comment on the post. It's up to you, but you may make it hard for people to comment.

  9. I think you are right that only folks with G+ would be able to comment.

  10. I don't know about G+, but it sounds like it would be limiting to commenters.

    Have a safe trip. HUGS.

    The Bookshop of Yesterdays has a great cover.

  12. My sister and I are trustees for our parents' estate so I know a little about what you're dealing with. It's nice to have a sibling to share the responsibility. Hope all goes smoothly for you. I'll be reading the Shalvis book soon!

  13. Have a safe trip, Kathryn. The Meyerson book looks good! I'm afraid I don't know the difference between using Google+ for commenting or Blogger! I think my blog is set up the same way yours is.

  14. I like your books, and Google no longer notifies you when there's a comment. Unless my settings are wrong..)quite possible) but I love Google.

  15. Looks like a good list and Yay for one off your shelf :)
    I'm reading Untamed Cowboy by Maisey Yates for a feature on the blog

  16. Glad you at least don't have to worry about snow. I know that's a lot on your plate. I have Bookshops of Yesterday on my TBR. That cover is just too much to resist. I'm reading Rainy Day Friends too. I'm really not supposed to be but I couldn't resist it any longer. I hope you have a lovely week!

  17. The Bookshop of Yesterday looks intriguing. Have a good week and happy reading!

  19. Have a safe trip.
    I don’t know much about google+ but Wordpress has been driving me nuts lately so I’m thinking about changing platforms myself.

  20. Hope your travels are safe. I'm away from home this week and forgot to link up Sunday/Monday. I like the looks of the Bookshop book. :-) Happy Reading!

  21. I hope all your work was concluded satisfactorily and you've got back safely. I am very late for this meme but work just got in the way.
