Oh my, but I am behind in this post. With everything going on in my life in the last month, computer time has been on the bottom of the list. And reading time has pretty much been toast too. I'm still trying to finish one of my choices from last month! It's good but I'm just so tired at the end of the day that reading has been hard to focus on. At any rate, I did get a pile of possibilities together for July. I'll probably only get to one now, and that will one to fulfill the Read Your Shelf Challenge I'm doing this year. But you never know. I have a week off at the end of the month so I might be able to squeeze in some extra reading time in my day.
The Read Your Shelf Challenge Prompt for the month of July is to read a book that starts with the first letter of your first name. I looked through all the books I own and came up with these. Though a couple of them start with "the" or "a" I usually ignore those when it comes to titles. I threw in the Charles Martin book as I really, really want to get to that before I forget what happened in the first book.

What are you reading this month? I hope the reading is going better for you!
Those books all look interesting. I just finished The Secrets We Keep and it was pretty good. Now I am finishing up a really dry nonfiction. Audiobooks are helping me keep up with my reading goals. Not sure if that is cheating. ;-) Not sure what I will read next month. Have a good Sunday. See you again soon.
ReplyDeleteI love to read, but summer is such a busy time for us here, I too have trouble making time to read. Winter is more of a season of reading for me. I enjoyed seeing the books you came up with that started with the first letter of your name. That's a fun way to choose a new book to read! Have a great week :)
ReplyDeleteI finished The Scent Keeper a couple weeks ago and LOVED LOVED LOVED it. The Storyteller on the other hand was my LEAST fave of Jodi's novels.
ReplyDeleteI like Karen WHite books although I don't think I've read that.
I recently read The Sound of Glass by Karen White. I've liked several of her books, will have to look for the one you listed. I also just finished The Brilliant Life of Eudora Honeysett (good, light read). I'm currently reading Dear Mrs. Bird, a light, entertaining read about a young woman in London during WWII.
ReplyDeleteI like the ideas you've come up with for planning your reading. Fun!
