What are you reading this week?


Mailbox Monday was created by Marcia at The Printed Page. We share books that we found in our mailboxes last week.  

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.

    I enjoyed Attachments by Rainbow Rowell...haven't decided yet on Fangirl.

    Enjoy your week, and thanks for visiting my blog.

    Good week for you.

    I have seen FanGirl around. How are you liking Transatlantic? I couldn't get into it.

    I also have Lies You Wanted to Hear.

    Have a good week.

    I've never read Rainbow Rowell, but I've been hearing amazing things about both Fangirl and Eleanor & Park. I hope you enjoy your week!

    How's Americanah so far? I'm going to check out Glitter and Glue. I've read positive things about Corrigan's writing.Have a good week.

    I agree with you, Laurel...I loved Eleanor &Park, but Fangirl was a little disappointing. A hurried ending, I thought.

    I like TransAtlantic a lot, but I loved Let the Great World Spin so much that I knew I'd love this one, too.

    I like Americanah so far. I'm about fifty pages in. I've loved her writing in the past so I feel pretty confident about this book.

    My first Rainbow Rowell read will be Eleanor and Park, everyone seems to have loved it. Have a good week and enjoy your new reads.

    I loved Eleanor and Park. I will read Fangirl with lower expectations. Have a great week.

    Hey Deb. Americanah looks fascinating. I like the cover design; it looks like it's got some Native American influences. Happy reading!

    Fangirl is on my list for this week. What did you think of it?

    I liked the first 2/5ths and then Fangirl died for me. The relationship was tidily worked out and the end seemed tacked on.
