Top Ten Turn Offs
Review-The Clock of Life by Nancy Klann-Moren
Books Finished
I started reading The Rathbones, which I received through a Goodreads giveaway. I really like the writing, but found I was struggling to continue reading. Alas, I went to the library, and they had some lovely books on hold for me, so I put this aside and picked up a different book..Which leads me to-
Currently Reading
I am now reading The Dark Monk by Oliver Potzsch. This is a sequel to a book I read and LOVED last year called The Hangman’s Daughter. I had put a hold on it at my library. Since I never know how quickly a book will come in, I was really excited to get it so quickly! I am whipping through it as we speak.
Up Next
I have lots of books waiting for me, so I will probably hit the library books that have a return date, and the ebooks that have a read by date.
You will love THE OTHER TYPIST.
Darn on THE RATHBONES. I thought it would be good. THANKS for the info about it.

My Mailbox Monday
I am not totally giving up on it- the writing was mesmerizing, but I am just not at the right place for it. Maybe I will pick it back up on a cold blustery day.
I have to avoid the library these days, I’m too tempted to borrow when I have far too many books waiting at home 🙂
I too loved The Hangman’s Daughter and I have The Dark Monk sat on my kindle but didn’t get around to reading it yet. Can’t wait to see what you think and whether it is as much a page turner as the first one. I also have The Bones of Paris but I’m saving that one for my vacation 🙂
Heard good things about The Other Typist, enjoy!
Right now i am currently reading a book called “The secret Life.” Really good so far. I love these posts because it is so interesting to see what everyone is up to:)
I tried to look that title up and couldn’t find anything- is it interesting? I just started a mystery-I don’t usually read many of them so it is a nice change of pace!
The Other Typist is one I’ve been considering. I hate when I find myself struggling to get through a book…and usually it happens when I have to finish it because it’s a review book! sigh.
Here’s
MY MONDAY READING POST
I did get it through Goodreads-and do plan on finishing it, but it just wasn’t working for me. It is very intricate and needs more attention than I was giving it- maybe a cold, blustery day?
Those pesky library return dates are the bane of my existence too 🙂
I get super excited when the “available for pick up” e-mail comes in from the library. 🙂 I’ll be curious to hear your thoughts on The Other Typist. The ending was…interesting? Which reminds me, I still need to write my review for it!
I started The Bones of Paris first- already 20% through (hate that e readers dont give you page numbers)
