A fun-filled trip to Chernobyl,
the site of one of the world's worst nuclear accidents?
Or how about a boat cruise...more

What are you reading today?!
It’s Monday! What Are You Reading? is where we share what we read this past week, what we hope to read this week…. and anything in between! This is a great way to plan out your reading week and see what others are currently reading as well… you never know where that next “must read” book will come from!
I love being a part of this and I hope you do too! As part of this weekly meme Book Journey loves to encourage you all to go and visit the others participating in this meme. Book Journey offers a weekly contest for those who visit 10 or more of the Monday Meme participants and leave a comment telling BJ how many you visited.
I just put the Chernobyl book on my hold list at the library. Sounds interesting.
ReplyDeleteIt's very sad. It would be hard to have your homeland butchered like these spots have been butchered.
DeleteNice! Those are new to me but I hope you enjoyed and enjoy them!
ReplyDeleteHere's my Monday Wrapup
