It's Monday! What Are You Reading?


I read and finished What I Saw and How I Lied, by Judy Blundell, over the weekend. It was good. It's a YA that was recommended to me by a friend. It was about the after effects of World War 2 on a New York family, anti-Semitism and tough choices. I also finished a really cool book called Heavenly Bodies, which I'll review this week. It's about the catacomb saints of Germany. I'd been reading it little by little since Christmas. It's amazing!

I'm still deep in to Hild, by Nicola Griffith, which I'm loving in one of those where-have-you-been-all-my-life ways, and I'm about to finish The Ghost Road, by Pat Barker, the Booker Prize winner from 1995.

Reading is still erratic. At least something is getting read now. Hope your week is good.

I just finished the enormously bloated Winter's Tale. It just didn't have the payoff I was hoping for. After almost 800 pages of investment in that, I'm now reading the 218 page Fight Club by Chuck Palahniuk. I'm off to read your review about Heavenly Bodies!

What I Saw and How I Lied sounds like my kind of book.

The book about the catacomb saints seems really interesting.

I loved Hild so much. I was excited to see that there will be a sequel, but so sad that it is still in the works!
