For the last three years I stopped doing reading challenges because I was dealing with the challenge of starting my own business and working full time. Now that my business is well established and I've got the groove of things (well, more or less...I'm raising teens!) I've developed a desire to challenge my reading once again. So this week I've joined several challenges for the fun of it.
Mailbox Monday
Mailbox Monday is the gathering place for readers to share the books that came into their house last week. Mailbox Monday now has a permanent home on its blog. Link up to share your MM.
I received these goodies for review in my mailbox:

It's Monday! What Are You Reading? is a place to meet up and share what you have been, are and about to be reading over the week. It's a great post to organise yourself. It's an opportunity to visit and comment, and er... add to that ever growing TBR pile! So welcome in everyone. This meme started with J Kaye's Blog and then was taken up by Sheila from Book Journey. Sheila then passed it on to Kathryn at the Book Date.

ReplyDeleteI've re-discovered my love for audiobooks. :-)
DeleteSo many great looking books! I bet I Am Jackie Robinson is terrific.
ReplyDeleteYes, it is. I'll be posting my review later this week.
DeleteI hope you enjoy The Garden of Letters as much as The Velvet Hours!
ReplyDeleteSo far I'm loving it! Alyson Richman is so talented. I now want to read everything she's written.
DeleteI so loved the Orphan Train ( on audio it was) made me interested in what happened back then. The Alyson Richman book does look great too.
ReplyDeleteI'm enjoying it very much. I like stories with dual timelines.
DeleteI've heard really good things about Mark of the King! Enjoy your week and thanks for stopping by Colletta's Kitchen Sink!

I loved Orphan Train...it was the first I read from the author, and now I'm a fan and have read several of her other books.
ReplyDeleteEnjoy the challenges! I did too many a few years back, so these days I tend to stick to one per year.
Thanks for sharing your books...and for visiting my blog.
I'm loving it so far! I think I will become her next fan.
DeleteSo glad you could join the WWII reading challenge with us!
ReplyDeleteSome nice books here, Laura.
ReplyDeleteLoved the Orphan Train and The Velvet Hours.
Squash Book Beet looks good too.
ENJOY them all.

I've seen the Mark of the King at a couple of blog. I didn't realize the significance of the title until I looked up the blurb.
ReplyDeleteI had no idea that Brad Meltzer of suspense genre had a children's series. It looks very good!
I am glad you are enjoying audiobooks and joined the challenge!
Happy reading and listening!
I'm always amazed at how some authors are skillful at writing for both adults and children. Thanks for stopping by!
