The Monday Book Report
I am linking up with
WHAT DID I READ THIS WEEK: I didn't finish anything this week, but I have been working on a few books.
This book was written by the host of the very popular True Crime Podcast, Crime Junkie. I borrowed this from my local library.
Shanna Hatfield is one of my favorite historical fiction writers. She writes westerns with incredible characters. I borrowed this one from Kindle Unlimited.
This is the sixth and latest installment of the StillHouse Lake series. I have loved each of these books about a woman who was married to a serial killer and their children. I borrowed this from Kindle Unlimited.
WHAT BOOKS DID I BUY/BORROW THIS WEEK: From Kindle Unlimited I borrowed: Bring Hygge to Your Life, The Sund Does Shine, Christmas at Cranberry Cove, and Everyday Magic. From the Library I borrowed An Ivy Hill Christmas and Everyday Faith Magazine. I purchased Colleen Coble's Edge of Dusk

Oh, my goodness! So that is why this book has two authors! I had no idea! I'm so sad!
DeleteIt looks like your reading is fitting the spirit of the season! I like your Kindle and pen cases. You've reminded me that I need to start narrowing down which challenges I want to join. I've done the Book Voyage and the Diversity Challenge in the past and enjoyed them.
ReplyDeleteEnjoy your week!
I haven't done any challenges in the past couple of years and I really miss them! I decided I want to broaden the types of books that I read next year so that is why I picked those. I'm also a part of an online classics club so I will do a few with them as well. Thank you for stopping by!
DeleteYour library book looks to be interesting! I love that pouch, too! So handy! I’ll avhe to check out Seasons of Wonder. Your potential challenges look fun!
ReplyDeleteI really like the Crime Junkie Podcast so knew I wanted to read her book. It is good so far! I hope I receive Seasons of Wonder for Christmas. There are a couple of other similar books that look very lovely too!
DeleteYes, I want to be more focused with my reading and pretty much everything else next year! haha! Have a great week!
ReplyDeleteI've been pinning everything I can get my hands on that has "organization" in the title! But I really have some HUGE goals this year and need to get into the right mindset to achieve them!
DeleteI like to partake in a couple of Advent studies to keep myself focused. I get off track SO easily! Now to wean myself away from my true crime addiction! My fiance and I will read the story of the birth of Jesus on Christmas Eve. It's a tradition we just started together last year.
ReplyDeleteThe cover of Seasons of Wonder looks really beautiful. I keep wanting to do a book challenge, but my TBR doesn't let me do it lol.
ReplyDeleteOh wow. My TBR pile. I just let it continue to grow and keep looking the other way. It's terrible. I should be ashamed lol
DeleteGreat list this week, Sherry. Holiday Hope sounds wonderful. I enjoy historical fiction. I think I have An Ivy Hill Christmas on my Kindle.
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing and for visiting my blog.
Holiday Hope was really good! There are 4 in the series, and I started the second one. I am thinking there might be books in between with the same characters that are NOT Christmas themed, because a whole lot of time passed between these two! Hope you're finding wonderful things to read this week!
DeleteHello Sherry. Glad you linked at MM. You have good variety here. I have been eyeing An Ivy Hill Christmas in the 2 for 1 Holiday Romances at Audiobooks.com. I hope you enjoy all of your books!
ReplyDeleteI decided to go back and read the Ivy Hill books in order. I read the first one many years ago and just loved it. I started to read the Christmas one, but I couldn't remember any of the characters - so it will be put aside until next year! Hope you're finding terrific things to read this week!
DeleteI am not quite caught on with Rachel Caine's series but I am so glad to see another author helped complete her last book. I will have to get my hands on it. Happy reading, have a good week!
ReplyDeleteI'm hopeful that this new author will continue Rachel Caine's storyline. This last book they really did set it up for there to be a follow-up book! What a legacy she left behind! She has so many books and I have only read the tip of the iceberg!
