It's Monday! What are you reading? -- 5/17


I hope everybody is having a nice Monday! This weekend, I dragged my boyfriend to the bookstore (on a Saturday night!) so I could use some (about to expire) coupons and picked up The Scent of Rain and Lightning (which I am almost finished with) by Nancy Pickard and Molly Fox's Birthday by Deirdre Madden. I am also working on The Sweetness at the Bottom of the Pie by Alan Bradley (which gets more interesting with each page).


Last week I finished the fantastic Paper Towns by John Green (review to come) and My Most Excellent Year by Steve Kluger (review to come). I also reviewed The Art of Racing in the Rain by Garth Stein.


What are you reading this week? (This meme is hosted by Book Journey).

I can't wait to hear your thoughts on the Pickard book. I read The Virgin of Small Plains and really enjoyed that one.

Good to hear about The Sweetness at the Bottom of the Pie. That is one that calls to me but I have not read. Looks like I need to do that! :D

Wonderful line-up of books, so many of them are on my tbr pile or wishlist. I have Paper Towns gathering dust on my bookshelf, really must get to it. Have a wonderful week and happy reading :-)

Sounds like you've read some good ones lately (though I didn't love My Most Excellent Year, I know many people did!).
