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.
I will be combining my YA and adult reading and purchases on this one weekly roundup. YA and middle grade reviews will still be posted on Ms. Martin Teaches Media - my other blog.
Other Than Reading...
The past week was another bitter cold one. However, we didn't get the snow that the East Coast and the South did. Next week is supposed to have a warm up. Of course for January in northern Minnesota, that means that we will have temperatures in the 20s above zero Fahrenheit. I'll take it. I am starting to feel a little house-bound. I also have a doctor's appointment this week that will give me a chance to meet my new gastroenterologist.
The cold weather has given me lots of time to hunker down and read. I took advantage. Of course, I also added way too many to my TBR stack because I couldn't pass up the Amazon deals.
