It's Monday, What Are You Reading (134)



It's Monday, What Are You Reading is a fun weekly meme hosted by Sheila at Book Journey where we share what we've read and reviewed over the past week and what we plan to read next.


Books read:



I liked this prequel novella and was glad to receive an e-ARC of Mila 2.0 for review which I can't wait to start.


Summerset Abbey by T.J. Brown

I thought this book was pretty good in spite of its flaws. Though it is published for adults, I think it works well as a YA historical novel too.





Books reviewed:

Insurgent by Veronica Roth
Summerset Abbey by T.J. Brown



Currently reading:


Etiquette and Espionage by Gail Carriger

I am enjoying this book so far and hope to finish it soon. It even includes some familiar characters from the Parasol Protectorate series when they were young.


What I plan to read next:


A Prayer for Owen Meany by John Irving (reread)

This is a book discussion book that I need to reread before next Tuesday. It has been years since I first read it and I don't remember very much of it but I think I liked it...

  1. Parasol Protectorate characters from when they were younger?!?! Now I know I have to read Etiquette & Espionage! Well, I should probably finish the Parasol Protectorate first... Enjoy your week!

  4. Interested in your thoughts about The Christian World of the Hobbit by Devin Brown; I know my church had a discussion night when the movie came out but I wasn't able to attend and I read the book before I was a Christian so I don't really remember much.

  5. Enjoyed your review for Insurgent. I didn't realise Owen Meany was such a chunkster, I won't get to it anytime soon.
    Have a great week and happy reading :)

  6. Like the cover of the Summerset Abbey book. With Downton around anything to do with Abbey is a favourite of mine!
