It's Monday! What Are YOU Reading? - 2/22/16

http://bookdate.blogspot.com/
   
********************
I hope you had a great reading week.  
********************
This is a weekly meme hosted by Kathryn at BOOK DATE!

Post the books completed last week, the books you are currently reading, and the books you hope to finish this week.

 ************* 
Books Completed:

 THE PASSENGER by Lisa Lutz

A great mystery/thriller.  Loved the book.

Review is in the book's title.

 
***************
GLORY OVER EVERYTHING by Kathleen Grissom

An emotional sequel to THE KITCHEN HOUSE.

Review will be on my blog on April 5. 

 
***************
Book Currently Reading:

BLACK RABBIT HALL by Eve Chase



Books Up Next:

THE TAXIDERMIST'S DAUGHTER by Kate Mosse

 

FALL OF POPPIES by Jessica Brockmole, Hazel Gaynor, Evangeline Holland, Kate Kerrigan, Jennifer Robson, Marci Jefferson, Heather Webb, Beatriz William, Lauren Willig

 

HANGING MARY by Susan Higginbotham


WHAT SHE KNEW by Gilly MacMillan


THE AXEMAN by Ray Celestin

 
THREE STORY HOUSE by Courtney Miller Santo
GARDEN OF LETTERS by Alyson Richman
,.......,.
THE GIRL WHO CAME HOME by Hazel Gaynor

********************

The books below are not necessarily in the order I have planned to read them.  

 I normally read in order of publication or tour date.

And....these are not for reading in the upcoming week.  :)  They are books including all of 2015 and 2016.

The "list" is a means of keeping me organized.
A visual display helps a lot for organization along with my Excel list. 

They certainly look a mess when this post is published.  Not sure why...they are all in perfect order side by side when I am in edit mode.
 

   
How was your reading week?

    Black Rabbit Hall looks a little gothic and spooky. Hope it is enjoyable. Yes isn't Feb just speeding by, wish it would slow down!

    This is the second very positive review I've seen today for The Passenger, and since I've been enjoying mysteries and thrillers more lately I think I'm going to give this one. Thanks and have a great week!

    Hurray for great reading weeks! I finished The Vegetarian by Han Kang, dark and thought provoking. Then I read Mockingjay by Suzanne Collins, finishing The Hunger Games trilogy. Now I can watch the first Mockingjay movie. Finally I read William Faulkner's last novel, The Reivers. It was typical Faulkner with a little extra something.
