Mailbox Monday and It's Monday....What Are You Reading?




Mailbox Monday 
is a gathering place for readers to share the books that
came into their house last week and explore great book blogs. 
Warning: Mailbox Monday can lead to envy, toppling TBR piles and humongous wish lists.





These two ebooks came to my Kindle via St. Martins, Sourcebooks and NetGalley. I couldn't pass up the latest Darcy book and Katie Fforde was praised as a great Brit Chick Lit writer by a fave author Trisha Ashley so I wanted to check her out. Both of these look great to me!!!

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------




Hosted by
We discuss the books that we've read 
and what we're planning to read for the week.

Read and talked about last week:
Discussion about re-defining my reading and having fun this year!
The Shadowy Horses- another stellar book by Kearsley
The Missing Manuscript of Jane Austen- loved every single page!

Bookish Thoughts to share this week:
After the Rain by Karen White
Somebody to Love by Kristan Higgins

In My Book Box:








Finished After the Rain, Somebody to Love

    I'm hanging out for your bookish thoughts on both those books this week. I just picked up a Katie Fjord book too, Staying Away At Christmas, I haven't read any of her books but I've heard good things about her writing.
    Have a wonderful week and enjoy the reads :)

    I'm glad you took the time to post how you are re-defining your reading. I've seen it a lot around the blogger world. I think we are going to see some really great posting this year because people are taking a step back. The posts will be more heartfelt and more interesting to read.

    My book club read Agatha Christie's "Murder on the Orient Express" last year and really enjoyed it. It was my first Christie read and I am looking forward to checking out more of her mysteries. She is so wonderful at weaving intricate stories. Thanks for visiting my blog and I hope you have a wonderful week!
