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.

The Edgar Winners: 33rd Annual Anthology of the Mystery Writers of America by Bill Pronzini, ed

    By-the-way, are you participating in BBAW (Book Blogger Apprectiation Week) this year? You might want to check out my latest post. I've been saying pretty things about you! :D

    I read Star Trek and Philosophy: The Wrath of Kant last year. It was hit and miss for me, as are most things that contain work by multiple authors. You can see my review here: http://thetoweringpile.blogspot.ca/2011/12/star-trek-and-philosophy-wrath-of-kant.html

    I've got 11/22/63 on my shelves but haven't started it yet. I haven't read any of the others you mentioned, so I'll have to check them out.

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!
