It’s Monday! What Are You Reading is where we gather to share what we have read this past week and what we plan to read this week. It is a great way to network with other bloggers, see some wonderful blogs, and put new titles on your reading list.
Other Than Reading...
This was an interesting week for the weather. It snowed twice. As a matter of fact when I was driving home from work on Friday I heard the weather person say we were having "freezing fog" along with our snow shower. That is a new concept for me. We had large puffy flakes falling thickly for about an hour and have temporarily snow-covered ground. Since it is supposed to warm up to about 50 in a couple of days, this snow won't last. I am really ready for Spring. People who had to travel more than the 3/4 mile I commute likely didn't have fun on their drive home.
Next week we have parent-teacher conferences on Thursday evening and a day off on Friday. I made an appointment to get my taxes done which means I really need to go through my tax stuff to make sure I have everything I need before Friday comes. I don't have a printer at home. Any missing paperwork needs to be printed at work.
I'm looking forward to more reading time with an extra day off. I have so many books on my review stack that are being released on April 5 that I need to read. The big pile of review books read and reviews scheduled ahead over the summer is almost gone.
Read Last Week
A Lady in the Smoke by Karen Odden was a Victorian mystery that was entertaining. I enjoyed the setting and the characters. My review will be posted on March 24.
Silence by Mercedes Lackey and Cody Martin was also a review book. This was is urban fantasy and fits into the Serrated Edge series but worked well as a standalone. It would also work well as a YA title since the main character is a sixteen-year-old girl. It was entertaining. My review will be posted on March 30.
