It's Monday! What Are You Reading?

1/9/2017

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

Happy New Year! I didn't get last week's Monday post up because we were on our way back from visiting family in Chicago. It was such a fun trip, and I loved seeing my little guy with all of his second cousins. So many giggles!

What I Read in the Last Two Weeks

Terra Incognita: Travels in Antarctica by Sara Wheeler (If you're even slightly interested in Antarctica, this would be the perfect book to read about it!)
The Eyre Affair by Jasper Fforde (First book of the year! Wonderful, as always!)

What I'm Reading Now

My Life in France by Julia Child (Oh, my goodness, this book makes me hungry.)
The Picture of Dorian Gray by Oscar Wilde (I've really got to keep chipping away at my Classics Club list, and the Serial Reader app is the perfect way to do that!)

What's Coming Up Next

Slipping Into Paradise: Why I Live in New Zealand by Jeffrey Moussaieff Masson (I'm still working my way around the world for my Circumreading the World challenge. This is book 10 out of 12. Almost there!)

I'm a little bummed because I was hoping to get all twelve books read by the end of December, but I guess it doesn't matter as long as I'm still having fun with it! :)

Terra Incongnita sounds like a great read!

We had Wyatt with all of his second cousins at Christmas, it was a blast! In a strange twist of life, 5 out of 6 of us cousins had children in the same year - makes for lots of toddlers these days!

Oh, my, that is a lot of toddlers. But so much fun, I'm sure! One of my cousins had a baby just two weeks before I did, so it was fun to see them "play" together. :)

Glad you had a lovely time visiting family.

I've seen the film adaptation of Dorian Grey but not read the book - something I shall have rectify at some point. Glad you're enjoying it. Happy reading!
