It's Monday, what are you reading?

I'm trying to get back on some kind of schedule now that Stitch Maynia is done for the year.  Oh, I still have to work on all those projects I started....don't get me wrong!  But I am also behind by 15 books in my Good Reads Challenge!  I need to find some "tiny" books with less pages! :)
I did finish 2 books this past week...............
 This is Susan Wittig Albert's China Bayles mystery series.  It's okay but not as good as her Beatrix Potter mystery series....but I was given some of these books so I might as well read them.  They're good mysteries just not my favorite characters.  3 stars out of 5
 This book is a classic but again, I was not impressed.  It was well written and it flowed along but I guess for the time that it was written in (1930's) it was very truthful about how the poor lived and got along.   3 of 5 stars
I printed off The Summer Reading Program from Modern Miss Darcy on my right-hand sidebar.  It's free but it is about 30 pages so be prepared if you print it off.  There was lots of great information in it.
She listed her TOP 5 off of the list and I got the first one but haven't started it yet.  I have it on my tablet.......it is an historical fiction and it was on sale and it just came out in March...lucky me!
I'm back to reading magazines too........this one is my current read and I love the Pope and I'm not even Catholic!
I'm still reading the physics book and I need to pick out some "tiny" books so I can catch up on my reading challenge!  I better go find some now!
Happy Trails!!!
P.S.  I'll let you know what I find!

  1. I just finished a couple of Jeff Cohen mysteries, easy reading! And I'm in Laurie Lee's Cider with Rosie, wonderful writing. More serious than Cohen.

  2. I am re-reading my Charlotte Macleod series. I started with the Peter Shandy ones, but I couldn't find one and I am trying to read them in order. So I started over with the Sarah Kelling ones and today I found the Peter Shandy one I was missing. I am thinking I will either do the Laura Child tea shop ones next or China Bayles since you keep mentioning her LOL. I was also thinking about re-reading the Earlene Fowler quilt block series with Benni Harper again. I haven't seen a new one in a while and I looked it up. She hasn't written any more in quite a while.

    1. Thank you for all the suggestions! I would read Susan Wittig Albert's Beatrix Potter series...I thought it was much better than China Bayles but then I like books set in older times.

  3. I am still reading Kristin Hannah books. My other favorite author is Debbie Macomber. I read all the Maggie Sefton knitting mysteries and they were all good and quick reads. There are 18 of them so that might be something to look into to help catch up.

  9. I was trying to reread a series that I read years ago. I don't even remember the author. I couldn't get into them so I think the series will go to the thrift store. I need to find something to take back to the lake with me.
    Blessings,
    Betsy

  10. I love to read but my issue is that an open book is a 'read' book. Once I start, I cannot put it down. However, I am participating for the first in Stitching Book Club and we are ready The Secret Garden. I know, a childhood classic but it's one of my favorites :)

  12. LOVE SPELL TESTIMONY

    Thank you so much DOCTOR ODUNGA for making my ex boyfriend come back to me. I am writing this wonderful testimony in respect of this man. He made all my wishes come true. My boyfriend and I dated for more than 3 years and although we had had so many quarrels we never thought of a break up. One day, he called me over the phone telling me how he is tired of the relationship and cannot see anywhere that we are heading to. Months passed and my boyfriend did not contact me anymore and I did not hear from him anymore and his cell phone was disconnected. I knew I needed to seek help because of the love I have for him. I contacted this great spell caster because i have never contacted anyone before and i tell you that after a week of contact, my ex boyfriend called me and asked to see me and the next morning, he wore a ring on my finger. I am very happy because I am soon going to be a married girl with the help of this great spell caster. I promised to manifest your works to everyone and please contact this man to help you at

  15. I was a HIV-AIDS patient and I got it from cheating on my wife. It was sort of a payback but a week later I was told by a friend that the person who I cheated with had the HIV-AIDS virus and did not tell me. I was so stupid by not using a condom I thought since he was an old school friend he was trustworthy. But I was wrong. I cried and cried. Two days later, I got a phone call from my friend and he told me about a person who is known by another friend, who can help me. I could not let my wife know what I was going through. I finally got his email address: oseremenspelltemple@gmail.com and I emailed this man my story and he replied me immediately saying i should be calm and told me that everything will be OK. I could not come to terms with what I was hearing but then I concluded it did not matter because I was so broken I just needed help. I was going out of my mind literally. I was confused with what he was telling me, but I listened. He told me about some materials i need to buy that he needed to cast the spell and I said OK. I bought the materials to him, I sent down my picture to him and my positive result sheet and he replied me that i am going to be negative under 3days. I message Him every 2hours for 2day and I knew he thought that I was crazy but I did care I needed a shoulder. Behold, the third day he messaged me i should go for a test that i will be negative. My marriage could be broken because of a stupid mistake and my life was on the line. I remembered when I was going to get the results of my re-test I called him up again and told him that I was going to get my results today and his reply was “so" and that everything will be as he explained. I knew then that he was getting tired of me calling him, maybe I was wrong. Well I got my results and the first person I called was him - again. As he said hello I started to cry and cry. I could not believe it. I was given a second chance in life.This man is a great spiritual HIV/AIDS healer, his healing spell on aids healing is very powerful .please brothers and sister, contact Dr Ose oseremenspelltemple@gmail.com
