Welcome to Itโs Monday! What are you Reading? Itโs hosted by Kathryn from Book Date, this is a weekly event to share what weโve read in the past week and what we hope to read, plus whatever else comes to mind.ย ย
Not quite as busy this week. I had lunch a few times with different friends I hadn’t seen since Covid began, which was wonderful. I also had Hocus Pocus night where we watched both movies and went out for dinner. During the days, I had lots of time to read, relax, review and blog.
What I Read/Listened to this week: I was able to read or listen to 9 books this week. I read/listened to 4 from the TBR I set last Monday, and 5 that were not. I didn’t do very well sticking to that TBR I had hoped to read last week.ย
I worked hard at catching up on reviews with only 1 from previous weeks to post. This week I read/listened to 9 books/audiobooks, but have posted all my reviews. Yes, that means only 1 reviews that I need to get to.๐๐ฌย I am working hard getting caught up on posting them. If you click on the cover, and I have reviewed the book, it will take you to my review.
What Am I Reading Now:
What Will I Read Next? I’m not sure what I will read next, but my TBR has lots of choices. I am hoping to enjoy a few more cozy mysteries from series I follow, as well as blog tours and ARCs.ย I will also be starting my 20 Books For Christmas this week. Although I won’t read or listen to all of these books this week, I will try and choose from this list.

It’s so nice to visit friends again in person! I don’t have Disney plus, and I need to figure out a way to watch Hocus Pocus 2

We had a lot of fun. It was only 4 of us, but too many might have spoiled it. I use my son’s Disney plus because I only watch it when my grandkids are here. My friend has several streaming services as she doesn’t have regular TV.

A Hocus Pocus night, how fun! I struggle with my four reviews a week. You’re amazing putting up those numbers.

Thanks Sam. Hocus Pocus Night was fun. We watched both movies, had a meal, drank witches brew and ate way to many snacks.

Iโm reading The Winners this week. Iโm sure it will take me all week. Iโll need some lighter reads to balance it out!

Yes, I need to start it as well. It is long and will be an emotional read for sure. I hope you enjoy it, Carol.

Iโm finding I canโt read a lot at one time. His writing demands you pay close attention and read every word! No speed reading this one! I have to take breaks.

Another great haul! I canโt seem to fit in more than 2-3 books/audiobooks in a week and still have time to do the other things I enjoy doing. I read Christmas in Vermont a few years ago and I remember enjoying it – I hope you do too Carla!

Thanks Jodie. It has been on my TBR for a couple of years now, so I am looking forward to finally reading it. I have been really busy over the last few weeks, but it keeps me out of trouble.
