What I'm Reading - May 16, 2016

It's Monday! What Are You Reading?

This weekly reading list meme is hosted at Book Date. Join in to see what others are reading and maybe get some ideas of what to read next! I'm also going to be linking up with Tales of a Pee Dee Mama for D.E.A.R. Monday (Drop Everything And Read).


I finished reading . . .

The Prophetess: Deborah's Story (Daughters of the Promised Land) by Jill Eileen Smith - There were a couple of places in early chapters where I wasn't sure how I felt about this one, but once I got going, I couldn't stop turning pages. Great book! (Read my full review HERE.)



These Old Shades by Georgette Heyer - This humorous adventure and romance entertained me right from the start with its unusual characters and clever dialogue full of dry wit. (Read my full review HERE.)

 


I'm currently reading . . .

Wuthering Heights by Emily Bronte - I'm liking this quite a bit now, but am still amazed at how little I like the characters!



The Curiosity Keeper (A Treasures of Surrey Novel) by Sarah E. Ladd - Still not very far along in this one, but having finished two novels last week I should have more time to get moving on it.



 The Scarlet Pimpernel by Baroness Orczy - I am reading this one with my daughter while working on a literature study, so I'm not treating it as a quick read.



 Next on the stack...

A Necessary Deception (The Daughters of Bainbridge House Book #1) by Laurie Alice Eakes
The Pharaoh's Daughter: A Treasures of the Nile Novel by Mesu Andrews
Swept Away (Trouble in Texas) (Volume 1) by Mary Connealy
Lady in the Mist: A Novel (The Midwives) by Laurie Alice Eakes

  1. The Pharaohs Daughter looks intriguing. I love books from that time period. Enjoy!

  2. Happy to hear you loved both those books, it bodes well for when I get to These Old Shades which I may do on audio.
