Sunday Book Blatherings


Brrrr Baby it's been so cold outside. I didn't get any outdoor walking in during the work week, and there is one more week of these frigid temps awaiting us.  Spending more time indoors did allow for more reading time though and I've been enjoying the books I've reading. 

I've finished (4) books in the new year, but (2) were started at the end of Dec:
  1. The Hanging Judge; Michael Ponsor (arc) - 4/5 (Jan)
  2. Lost and Found; Brooke Davis (arc) - 4/5 (Jan)
  3. Red 1-2-3 ; John Katzenbach (audio) (library) 3.5/5 - (no review yet)
  4. Life Drawing; Robin Black (library) - 4/5 - (no review yet)
In progress: (both very good)
A few new books arrive by mail that sound really good.  Have you tried any of these?

Have a Great Week!

    I read Station Eleven last year and loved it! Hope you are still enjoying that one. I need to read The Girl on the Train. Sounds like a good one.

    Enjoy your new books and stay warm! I am curious about eGalley. I've read positive comments about Girl On The Train.

    I want to read THE GIRL ON THE TRAIN. Have been hearing a lot about that one. I'm still on the fence about reading STATION ELEVEN. Try to stay warm!

    There sure is plenty of Brrrrr Humbug going around these days, keep snuggly warm.

    It's frigid (for us) here too but we've been bundling up and walking. I know your frigid is far worse than ours, though. I loved The Girl on the Train!

      Almost forgot to mention how much I like your winter blog header! And the Zen Kitties are too funny. :)

    I hope to read Station Eleven sometime soon. I love Emily St. John Mandel's writing. It's FREEZING here too, and I am hoping the warm weather comes soon.

    The weather kept me indoor as well. Today the sidewalk plows went by to my cheering. I am looking forward to The Girl On The Train.

    Been chilly here, too. Supposed to be a bit warmer tomorrow and rain, but then the temps drop and the rain freezes. Horrible for driving.

    Both of your in progress books are ones I am eager to read. The Girl on the Train and Station Eleven. I'm going to try for The Girl on the Train at the library when it's available there, I think.

    I want to read both The Girl on the Train and Station Eleven! A Memory of Violets sounds interesting.
