It's Monday! What Are You Reading?

It's Monday! What Are You Reading? Hosted by Sheila at One Person's Journey Through a World of Books. This meme allows us bloggers to get caught up on reviews on each other's blogs, find out what is upcoming, and get book suggestions to add to our (massive) TBR lists. Enjoy!

Posted last week:
Furious Love by Sam Kashner and Nancy Schoenberger
How to Be a Movie Star by William J Mann
The Hunger Games by Suzanne Collins
Catching Fire by Suzanne Collins

Upcoming this week:
Brightly Woven by Alexandra Bracken
Thud by Terry Pratchett
Stand-In Groom by Kaye Dacus
Kiss Me Deadly ed. Trisha Telep
Fairy Tale Friday

Planned for next week:
The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo by Stieg Larsson because my sister said she wouldn't try The Hunger Games unless I read this. Personally I think she's getting the better end of this because HG is a lot shorter although they're possibly equally violent. Of course now Dragon will have me thinking of Daniel Craig, which is not a bad thing but will probably prove distracting ;-)

The Girl Who Played With Fire; sadly I don't currently have The Girl Who Kicked the Hornet's Nest so that will have to wait.

Menu for Romance by Kaye Dacus, the sequel to Stand-In Groom

Half the Sky by Nicholas D. Kristof and Sheryl WuDunn, non-fiction about unleashing the potential of women in order to improve the world.

  3. I enjoyed The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo, but personally loved Hunger Games. Still I am glad I read Dragon Tattoo and hope to read the next two eventually. Hope you have a great week.

  8. Half the Sky looks like a great book and a great cause. I'm eagerly awaiting the final book in Collins' Hunger Games series after those first two. Soon! Have a great week! :)
