It’s Monday! What Are You Reading? is a weekly post to share what you recently finished reading, what you’re currently reading, and what you plan on reading this week. It’s hosted by Kathryn at Bookdate.
What I Read Last Week:
Delaney is the first in a new series from an author I really enjoy!
The Blackbird Season was an eerily atmospheric read, slow burning but great tension.
Snare was a really original read, I loved it!
I LOVE Sue Watson books and Snowflakes didn’t disappoint!
Christmas at Butterfly Cove was an adorable read.
Currently Reading:
I’m making my way through my backlog of Netgalley books so Under the Knife is my TBT pick this week!
Up Next:
I’m not sure what else I’ll pick this week, I had a few books published on the 3 and 10 of this month that I didn’t get too so definitely some of those!
I had such a great vacation, we went to California and hit Sea World, Legoland and had a beach day our last day there. My kids had a total blast, my husband and I did too but we both agree we need a separate adults only vacation to recuperate now 😂 Vacations with small kids are so much work y’all! My kids started asking how much longer within the first hour of an eight hour drive. 🙄 Then there’s so much stuff to pack and then unpacking and laundry totally sucks too. Fall break is officially over today and I can’t say I’m sad to send them back to school and get a little quiet time for a few hours. While I’m ranting, WTF is up with fall break anyway?! That wasn’t a thing back in my day. It seems like my kids are always off for something or other. Sigh. I do love my kids, honest I just love them more when we have a little break 😜
^^Sorry, that was rather ranty and not remotely related to reading/books but now that I’m back home and into my usual routine I’m so looking forward to catching up on my backlog. How was your week?! Anyone else suffer through fall break too?
Fall break has always been a thing here. Still to come as it’s usually the week after All Saints. Don’t have kids so I don’t really know. Or care. 😂
Enjoy the peace and quiet!

Breaks are definitely the key to good parenting. Never feel guilty!
Snare seems to be getting a lot of great reviews. I need to pick it up. I’ll be interested to hear what you think of Seven Days of Us. I don’t think I’ve ever disliked a book more, and yet somehow I still finished it.

I finished Seven and am right in the middle about it. Some things I liked and others not so much

Even colleges are doing fall breaks…I have so wondered why kids or young adults in college need a fall break?? They just started a month and a half ago😂It’s so ridiculous imo

That’s how it works here. One or two weeks off, every six weeks. Fall break, Christmas holidays, spring break, Easter holidays and almost time again for summer holidays with a few random days thrown in for no good reason whatsoever. 😄
