It's Monday! What Are You Reading?

12/21/2015

This weekly chance to add to your reading list is hosted by Kathryn at Book Date.

We had a few flakes of snow over the weekend, and it's gotten a lot colder. But that's about it, winter weather-wise. I've got my fingers crossed for a white Christmas, but it's not looking that promising!

What I Read Last Week

Grave Consequences by Lisa T. Bergren (Just as good a sequel as I had hoped!)
Brainiac: Adventures in the Curious, Competitive, Compulsive World of Trivia Buffs by Ken Jennings (I've loved every book I've read by Jennings, and this one is no exception!)

What I'm Reading Now

Return to Me by Lynn Austin (I've been hoping for awhile that someone would write about this era of Biblical history, and now my favorite Biblical fiction author has! Bookish wishes come true!)

What's Coming Up Next

I'm not entirely sure, and that doesn't happen to me all that often. It's a very nice feeling, though!

Interesting variety of books. The one by Ken Jennings sounds especially good to me since I'm a trivia buff. Come see my week <a href="http://inside-dog.blogspot.com/2015/12/its-monday-what-are-you-reading-dec-21.html">here</a>. Happy holidays and happy reading!

You've got my interest piqued with Return to Me. I love stories that focus on some of the more obscure people of the Bible.

Enjoy your books and Merry Christmas!

This series focuses on the Israelites' return from the Babylonian exile. I don't know why I've always found that period fascinating, but I do and I'm so glad there's a fictional take on it!

Merry Christmas to you!
