It's Monday What Are You Reading?

It's Monday! What are you reading? is a weekly event to celebrate what we are reading for the week hosted at Book Journey, Post the books completed last week, the books you're currently reading, and the books to be read this week. Please comment or leave a link to let me know what you're reading this week!

Read This Week

  

Ghost and the Goth by Stacey Kade - Read in one sitting. Was thoroughly charmed and can't wait for the next one.
Angel Burn by L. A. Weatherly - Overall, really liked. Found the romance stuff a bit too over the top but that could be personal taste. Review probably coming later.
Addie on the Inside by James Howe - Really liked it. A fitting tribute to Addie. Review coming Thursday. 

Currently Reading

I am between books! I literally just put down Ghost and the Goth, so now I need to find something else to sink my teeth into.

Up Next:

 

I still have these two lovely ARCs to read. I've heard such good things about both that I'm rather excited.

What have you been reading?

Read This Week


  

Other Words for Love by Lorraine Zago Rosenthal - It was pretty good. A little different than what I was expecting but good. 

White Cat by Holly Black - I started this last year when it first came out but didn't finish it. I really like Holly Black's books and I had a feeling at the time that I would pick it up later and really enjoy it and I was right. I actually listened to this one on audiobook, narrated by Jesse Eisenberg who did a really good job. Review coming later in the week, I think.

Red Glove by Holly Black - Read pretty much in one sitting. Was completely spoiled getting to read White Cat and Red Glove back to back. I hate that I have to wait for the next one.  

Currently Reading

Got distracted by the genius that is Holly Black but I am still reading these two: 


  
Addie on the Inside by James Howe - It's my book at work and I've been busy enough that I haven't touched it much since last week.

Angel Burn by L. A. Weatherly - Really interesting premise and a good start so far. About halfway through.



Up Next:

 

The Ghost and the Goth by Stacey Kade - I just picked this up at the library after having looked forward to it for a long time. Sometimes it's fun to read something light and I think this will fit the bill nicely. 

Leap by Jodi Lundgren - I got this Canadian book a little while ago and it's been sitting sadly on my TBR pile so I'm hoping to get to it this week or next.

What are you guys reading?

Read This Week


The Gathering by Kelley Armstrong - Really good! Review coming! 

Currently Reading

  
Addie on the Inside by James Howe - Totally Joe is one of my very favourite GLBTQ books, and actually one of my favourite books period so I was looking forward to another book in this 'verse and James Howe does not disappoint!

Angel Burn by L. A. Weatherly - Another angel book? I wasn't going to read this one until I read about the angel assassin. Just started it today and already really loving it. 

Up Next:

I honestly have no idea. I have an embarrassment of ARCs right now so it will be whatever snags my attention next. Here are some in the running:

  

Beauty Queens by Libba Bray - looks super hilar and fun.
Ten Miles Past Normal by Frances O'Roark Dowell - I've heard nothing but good things about this book.
Abandon by Meg Cabot - I'm on book three of the Princess Diaries and really sort of loving Meg Cabot!

Read this week:


Perfect Chemistry by Simone Elkeles - Really, really liked this one. Talk about a love story to swoon over. Review coming later this week.

If I Stay by Gayle Forman - I knew it was going to be a tear-jerker and it lived up to its name. Really fantastic book. 

Dust City by Robert Paul Weston - Fantastic urban fantasy with a fairytale twist. Review coming tomorrow.

Currently reading:


Seven Kinds of Ordinary Catastrophes by Amber Kizer is pretty hilarious so far. I'm loving the narrative voice and the highschool-ness of it all. 

Up Next: 

I'm in Florida this week on vacation (yayayay!) so I'm just taking my Kobo and not any actual print books. We'll see how I do. These are what I have in e-book to read next (amongst other things):

 

Body at the Tower by Y. S. Lee - I adored the first Agency book and am definitely looking forward to this!
This Girl is Different by J. J. Johnson - I've read the first bit of this a little while ago so am looking forward to picking it up again.
Boyfriends and Girlfriends by Alex Sanchez - I miss reading GLBTQ romances and Alex Sanchez always delivers.

What are you guys reading next?

It's Monday - What Are You Reading?

Read this week:


 

Darkness Becomes Her by Kelly Keaton - Paranormal Romance type of thing with a mythological twist. I liked it and have a review ready to go for Thursday.

Her and You and Me by Lauren Strasnick - Contemporary drama/romance. I really really loved this one. My review is here!

The Lover's Dictionary by David Levithan - short snippets of a love story in alphabetical order. Adored it.

Currently Reading:


Dust City by Robert Paul Weston - Henry's dad was the Big Bad Wolf and is in prison for the double-homicide of Little Red Riding Hood and her grandmother. Henry himself is on the run from a juvenile detention center and trying to figure out the truth about his dad and the mysterious Fairy Dust that people use to solve all their ailments. So far it's an awesome fractured fairy tale action-adventure. I think it would be  good recommended read for boys.

Up Next: 

I didn't get to two of my reads from last week, so I'd still like to read Perfect Chemistry & Radiance but am also looking forward to...

 

I still haven't got around to reading If I Stay and with the sequel around the corner I decided I should really read it.

Infinity looks like a fun action-adventure type read and sometimes I need those in my life :D

It's Monday What Are You Reading?

New weekly meme time! It's Monday What Are You Reading? is hosted by Book Journey.


Post the books completed last week, the books you're currently reading, and the books to be read this week. Please comment or leave a link to let me know what you're reading this week!

Completed Last Week

 

Finished Library Wars today (liked it! Lots of freedom of information makes my inner library dork happy) and read Angelfire by C. A. Moulton last week. Review coming soon.


Currently Reading



I kept picking up books this week, getting halfway through and then putting them down, so only reading one book at the moment. So weird to just be reading just one book. Will probably change that soon... Darkness Becomes Her is fairly typical Paranormal fare so far but I'm hoping it'll pick up.


Books to be Read



Perfect Chemistry for the POC challenge, Radiance because I think it will be a good one to booktalk for grade 7's and Her and Me and You because I've been wanting to read it since I first saw it. 

What are YOU reading?
