It's Monday! It's Spring Break!

                 

It's Monday! It's Spring Break!      Please excuse the exclamation points and the bold print, but it is my first day of Spring Break and I'm quite happy. I've been stockpiling books for this occasion and I think it is time to dive in and read. What have I saved for this week? Here's what I've got on my bedside table:                           *The Divorce Papers (review book from Random House)                           *When I Was Puerto Rican (the book I'll be passing out on World Book Night)                           *Cuando era Puertorriquena (World Book Night book in Spanish)                           *Gilead (book group selection for later this month; a reread)                           *Black Lake by Johanna Lane (review book from Little, Brown)                           *Emil and the Detectives (book group selection for March)                           *Family Life by Akhil Sharma (review book from Norton)                           *The Shelf by Phyllis Rose (review book from Farrar, Straus and Giroux                           *Trying Not to Try by Edward Slingerland (review book from Random House)      Could I be any happier?                   UPDATE:  Well, it turns out that I CAN be happier. I was just notified that I won a copy of Off the Beaten Page: The Best Trips for Lit Lovers, Book Clubs, and Girls on Getaways! Doesn't that sound wonderful? No better way to beat the winter-y blues than by planning a book trip!

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.
