It's Monday! What are you reading is a weekly meme that comes to us from Sheila at Book Journey. To participate, simply post what you finished reading in the past week and what you plan to read this week. It is a good way to find other books you may enjoy reading. After you write your post, head over to Sheila's blog to leave your post's link on the link entry form at the bottom of the What are you reading? post.
Last week was a bit hectic for me since it was finals week. I am relieved to have passed everything. Reading-wise, I only just finished my fourth book since last Sunday. On top of all of that, my 2 year old decided to break my netbook screen as a Mother's Day gift, so now I am using my computer hooked up to one of our TVs, which will have to serve as a monitor until August when I can get a new one. This poor computer has been through the wringer. I've only had it for a year and already it's on its second hard drive, is missing the slider for the power switch, and now has a busted monitor. My mother keeps telling me that I'm going to have to start putting things on the ceiling. My friend begs to differ. She suggests the roof. They are probably right.
What I Finished
The Reckoning by Kelley Armstrong
Paranormalcy by Kiersten White

ReplyDeleteI'm sorry to hear about your computer woes. I know what that's like. Congratulations on passing all your classes. I am amazed that you were able to read four books while also taking finals!
ReplyDeleteYou have some fantastic books on your list. I love the Mortal Instruments series and Paranormalcy. I also really liked Hex Hall and Demonglass. I hope you will enjoy those books as much as I did. Have a great week!
I'll be looking for your review on Hex Hall! Hear some good things about it but still can't decide if I should start it or not! Need more motivation! ;)

Happy Reading!!
I am so sorry about your reader and computer. My kids are much older and together with my very sneaky husband, they bought me a new computer for Mother's Day. So as they get older, things get better, I promise.
