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! Although the Book Date link-up happens weekly, I don't update that often. Usually I do this around the middle of the month, and try to share my monthly bookshelf summary on the last Monday of the month. Here's what I've been working on lately.
I finished reading . . .
The Starlet Spy by Rachel Scott McDaniel - A Hollywood actress takes on the role of spy during WWII, returning to Sweden to recover top secret documents before the Nazis get them. (Read my review HERE.)
Composition As Conversation by Heather M. Hoover - When I last updated, I had finished this guidebook for writing engaging and interesting material, but hadn't yet written the review. The review was published a few days later, so you can read that HERE.
I'm currently reading . . .
A Louisiana Christmas To Remember (novella collection) - Three novellas that see members of a small town community find love and healing as they prepare for a very special Christmas celebration.
The Vanishing at Castle Moreau by Jaime Jo Wright - a dual timeline story centering around a castle and its mysterious residents who have an ominous reputation.
Up Next . . .
Garden of the Midnights by Hannah Linder - I just received this for review, so it's the next book I'll open, and since I've been slower in my reading lately, I'll have to open it in the next couple days and get going! Why do I keep volunteering to review even though it's hard to keep up with it all? Well, in this case, it's an author that has greatly impressed me so far, and come on, look at this cover - gorgeous!
On the TBR stack . . .
These are the books that I wished I'd read already, and are waiting for me on my bedside table, as soon as I get a moment to start my next good read. The stack grows faster than my ability to read it, especially lately!
Voice of the Ancient by Connilyn Cossette
A Fatal Illusion by Anna Lee Huber
Queen of Exiles by Vanessa Riley
Killers of a Certain Age by Deanna Raybourn
Murder Most Fair by Anna Lee Huber

Thanks for the heads up about these books. I've added The Starlet Spy to my want to read list! Now I just have to hope my local library brings it in!
