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.


Books Read (click on titles for review):
The Jesus Incident by Frank Herbert & Bill Ransom
A Tale of Two Cities by Charles Dickens
The Greenwell Mystery by E. C. R. Lorac
Casino Royale by Ian Fleming

[Woo Hoo! That's twice as many as last week!]

Currently Reading:
Champagne for One by Rex Stout:
Mrs. Robilotti was Billionaire! Yeah, that's what I said. BILLION. She had hired Wolfe's brains and my legs--which is the way Wolfe likes to think about it--once before, when her emeralds turned up missing. Mrs. Robilotti didn't like a private detective around the house any better than she'd have liked a street cleaner. When she invited me to dinner I figured it wasn't just to see if I knew which fork to use. Then one of the guests dropped dead--of cynanide!"

Nero Wolfe and Archie are confronted by a set of glittering, sophisticated characters, with plenty of money and too much free time--time enough for murder!


Books that spark my interest:
From Sawdust to Stardust: The Biography of DeForest Kelley, Star Trek's Dr. McCoy by Terry Lee Rioux
The Fire Engine that Disappeared by Maj Sjöwall and Per Wahl
The Doctor Dines in Prague by Robin Hathaway

  1. Congrats on finishing A Tale of Two Cities! I have it on my shelf to be read, but I'm going to wait a while after reading David Copperfield in February.

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!
