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):
I've been off the bandwagon for a little while...between a vacation and then a trip home for Dad medical emergency (he's doing well now) I just didn't get much posting done beyond reviews. So this list represents about four week's worth of reading (still not near what needs to get done if I'm to meet all those challenges I've signed up for)....

Currently Reading:
The Riddle of the Sands by Erskine Childers: considered the first
modern spy thriller, is recognizable as the brilliant forerunner of the
realism of Graham Greene and John le Carre. Its unique flavor comes from
its fine characterization, richly authentic background of inshore
sailing and vivid evocation of the late 1890s - an atmosphere of mutual
suspicion and intrigue that was soon to lead to war.
Books that spark my interest:
The Hollow Chest by Alice Tilton
Andersen's Fairy Tales by Hans Christian Andersen
Break Any Woman Down by Dana Johnson
Death in Zanzibar by M. M. Kaye
Murder Within Murder by Frances & Richard Lockridge
The Age of Innocence by Edith Wharton (only because I need it for challenges...I was uninspired when I tried it a month or so ago....)

Glad to have you back! You have read quite a few books!
You read quite a lot of books, and I see some very interesting titles. I read your father is doing better, I am happy for you, nothing so awful as a familymember you love being ill.
Have a good week & kind regards,
Enjoy your reading! Hope you're feeling better and more rested after your stresses.
