This wonderful weekly meme is hosted by Shelia at One Person's Journey Through a World of Books, and asks you to answer the question What are you reading?
Man did this week just fly by. I can't believe it is Monday already.
I finished three books this week:
Sea Glass by Marie V Snyder (this was an audio version)
Definitely can't wait to find out what happens in Spy Glass. Just wish I didn't have to wait till September.
The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo by Stieg Larsson
The Particular Sadness of Lemon Cake by Aimee Bender
This is definitely a crossover book as Rose the narrator is nine when the story opens and it follows through her teen years.
Make sure you enter my Time to Share Giveaway for a chance to win The Particular Sadness of Lemon Cake, Perchance to Dream by Lisa Mantchev, or a signed copy of My Name is Memory by Anne Brashares. Ends 6/24

You had a great reading week! I see some nice books.
I've got Storm Glass to read and can't wait to get around to it. Hopefully soon. I got through a chapter or two of Dragon Tattoo and thought it started slow too so it's been put aside for a while now. Glad you liked it though. Some great looking novels you have coming up!
I read The Short Second Life of Bree Tanner today. It was ok, added another dimension to the story. Hope you have a grat week!
I participated in the Bloggiesta too and agree, it is a great way to give your blog a little spring cleaning. I still have a lot I could do.... I think I need to extend Bloggiesta through the week :)
Even with Blogiesta you had a great reading week. I am looking forward to Spy Glass too. Bree Tanner and Raised by Wolves are possibilities for me this week too. Happy reading!

P.S. hope you enjoy alison dare as much as we did. also, just to let you know those pics on our blog are not contest entries--we're not eligible to enter 'cause we part of the tour. looking forward to seeing your pics :)

I just read the Glass trilogy this past week, loved them!!
I read Spy Glass on www.NetGalley.com, so if you haven't signed up there you should think about it!
Glad to hear you liked The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo. My book club read that before I joined it, but I've heard great things from everyone about it! Hope you have a great week :)
The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo is on my summer reading list...it is waiting patiently on my piano awaiting its turn. :D
Glad to know of the slow start, and also glad to know that you liked the characters.
The Particular Sadness of Lemon Cake seems interesting. I most definitely need to look into this book further.
Hope you have wonderful reading week!
Another great crossover book, if you haven't tried it yet, is The Sweetness at the Bottom of the Pie by Alan Bradley. The protag is eleven and very interested in chemistry.
I'm planning to read the Bree Tanner book this week too! Have a good week!
Storm Glass and the Stieg Larsson books are on Mount TBR so I'm glad to hear you enjoyed them.
Have a great week, happy reading!
NetGalley has SpyGlass Jan:) Needn't wait till Sept. It's full of surprises :)
