It's Monday! What Are You Reading?


It's Monday! What Are You Reading? is a bookish meme hosted by Book Journey. It's where we gather to share what we have read this past week and what we plan to read this week. It's a great way to network with other bloggers, see some wonderful blogs, and put new titles on your reading list. So hop on over via the link above and join in...and leave a comment here so I can check out what you are reading

I missed last week, so here's the list since my last post.


Books Read (click on titles for review):
Shatterday by Harlan Ellison
Lady Audley's Secret by Mary Elizabeth Braddon
The Arrow by Christopher Morley
The Name on the Bracelet by Margaret Sutton
Lord Peter Views the Body by Dorothy L Sayers
DeKok & Murder on Blood Mountain by A C Baantjer

Currently Reading:
The Unpleasantness at the Bellona Club by Dorothy L Sayers: Ninety-year-old General Fentiman was definitely dead, but no one knew exactly when he died. The time of death was the determining factor in a half million pound inheritance. And Lord Peter would need every bit of his amazing skills to unravel the mysteries of: why the General's lapel was without a red poppy on Armistice Day, how the club's telephone was fixed without a repairman, and, most puzzling of all, why the great man's leg swung freely when the rest of his was stiff with rigor mortis.

Books that spark my interest:
The Book Thief by Markus Zusak (still aiming to get to this one....other challenge obligations have gotten in the way)
The High Crusade by Poul Anderson
Lucky Jim by Kinglsey Amis
Middlemarch by George Eliot (if I'm brave enough)
Parnassas on Wheels by Christopher Morley

Sorry folks, but I have been getting an incredible amount of spam. I have adjusted my settings and all messages will be moderated from now on. If that does not take care of the problem then I will have to go to the "Prove You're Not a Robot" thing--which I hate as much as you do.

If your name does not appear automatically, please tell me your name in the comment. Otherwise you will just show up as "Unknown." Thanks!
