::Manic Monday:: 09/22/2014
In the last week:
I participated in the #TackleTBR (Tackle your TBR) challenge hosted by Wishful Endings.
I read Oh, Africa! by Andrew Lewis Conn.
I finished the Tackle your TBR challenge with about 50% of my goal.
I wrote about Banned Books Week.
Sheila even has a giveaway for Banned Books week.
Not only is there a sequel to the Rosie project, but I get to read it before it comes out in the US in December-ish 2014!!!!! *Sorry for the run-on sentence, but I am terribly excited!!!!!
As always, it is Monday and Sheila at Book Journey is asking us what we’re reading…
Here’s What I am reading:
I have recently introduced my husband to Steve Alten’s series about the Megladon. This is the second book in the series (if you don’t count the prequel, Meg: Origins, which is currently free on Amazon). And Melissa De La Cruz’s book is definitely different than the tv show–I am finding a lot of differences. Look for my review this week.
What about you–what are you reading today?

September 23, 2014 at 2:03 pmGood for you for completing the TBR challenge! I joined a year-long TBR challenge – not doing so well though! It”s hard to get to the point where I have more books coming off the shelves than going on! Hoping to focus on my own shelves this fall.
I have The Rosie Project on my Kindle – can’t wait to read it
!Enjoy your books this week –
