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.

  7. Thanks for stopping by the Lair!

    As for how I keep up? I do housework/laundry at the last minute, don't have a paying job and my kids are over 20 ;-) As for ARCs I'm being buried.

    Looking forward to seeing what you thought of Spiderwick. I couldn't get pass book 1 and never went back to try again.

  10. If you liked the book about the animals and what they can teach us, perhaps The philosopher and the woolf is also a book for you!

    And I loved the Spiderwick film, I did not know that it was based on a book, good to know.

    Kind regards,

    The week just started and I've already finished a graphic novel and My Ideal Bookshelf. Did you ever finish coming up with your ideal bookshelf? :-)

  22. I love the sheer variety of your reading week - and then there's the Spiderwick chronicles.... I read the first book to a group of third graders a couple years ago. They loved it. I should probably continue on with the series next year - we have the first through the fifth books in our library. :) Haven't seen the movie though.

    Have a great week
