It’s Monday, What are you Reading? is a weekly meme hosted by Sheila at One Person’s Journey Through A World Of Books to discuss what we are reading this week, as well as books completed the previous week.
Welcome to November! My favorite month of the year for several reasons: it’s officially fall, Thanksgiving, NaNoWriMo and the start of the holiday season. Stay tuned all month for updates on my NaNo novel!
Onto this week’s books…
Books I Completed Last Week:
Sugar and Spice by Lauren Conrad: The final book in Lauren Conrad’s trilogy. I thought this book wrapped Jane’s story up in a fun and satisfying way. (Review to come this week)
I Now Pronounce You Someone Else by Erin McCahan: I absolutely loved this book and devoured it over the weekend. It took a direction completely different than I’d ever expected. Stay tuned for an author interview and giveaway (hopefully!) (Review to come this week)
Books I’m Reading This Week:
Wanted by Sara Shepard: The final book in the Pretty Little Liars series! I cannot wait to see how this all ends.
An Abundance of Katherines by John Green: I am excited to finally read something by John Green…and um in shocking news…this will be the FIRST male author’s book that I will review on this blog. Yikes! Can’t believe I’ve been neglecting male authors everywhere for more than a year!
So, what are you reading this week?
I love INPYSE too and I am anxious to hear what you think of Green’s book. I adored Paper Town and need to read more by him. Have a great week and stop by my blog to check out Erin McCahan’s guest post about her book.
Oh, I am definitely stopping by to check out the guest post! I believe I’ll have an interview with her up in the next week or so. I’m glad you loved it too!
I’ll also definitely have to check out Paper Towns.
I have to read Lauren Conrad…have too! 🙂 Have a super week and Happy November!
It’s a good one 🙂 I really actually liked LC’s writing!
I am reading Trophy Bride
Enjoy it!
I’ll look forward to your review of Sugar and Spice. I’ve heard it’s a good book. The book I’m reading now called Voices of the Heart is a wonderful memoir (author Linda Lambert Pestana). I’ve laughed and cried as she takes me through her incredible journey and she finds her way in life. It’s reminds us that even if we fall we can still have the strength and courage to pull ourselves up and go on…a very positive book. I’m going to recommend it for my book club!
Your books look good…I’m also participating in NaNoWriMo, and isn’t that word a doozie to write? It does get a little easier every time I write it, though…LOL.
I don’t review that many male authors, either. One of my favorite male authors is Jonathan Kellerman, and I also like some of Grisham’s books (the legal thrillers).
But generally, I prefer the women authors because I like books about women’s issues, and I think those are generally written better by women. (Of course there are exceptions, and I know this sounds kind of sexist!).
I’ll have to check out the one on your list.
Thanks for visiting my blog.
Absolutely! 🙂
NaNoWriMo is such a doozie to write- that’s for sure.
I don’t think it’s sexist at all to want to read books written by women- it’s just easier for us to relate!
Thanks for visiting, Betty! The review should be coming up this weekend!
I’m glad you’re enjoying the memoir you’re reading now. Seems like it’s very moving!
Wanted looks good. May have to check it out. Have a great week! Here is mine:

I can’t wait to dig into it 🙂
I’m picking up Lauren Conrad’s book tomorrow from the library! I’m sure I will fly through it and I can’t wait. Have you checked out her style book? I bought it and really like it! She has such a great, classic style!
No, I haven’t checked out the style book! What’s it like? I do love her clothes!
