The Monday Agenda 3/17/2014

MondayAgendaNot a lofty, ambitious to-be-read list consisting of 100+ book titles. Just a simple plan for the upcoming week — what I’m reading now, what I plan to read next, and what I’m hoping to squeeze in among the nooks and crannies.

How did I do with last week’s agenda?

Real life interrupted my reading and blogging plans this week in a big way… but here’s what I did manage to accomplish in my bookish life this past week:

Sunrise (Ashfall, #3)Night Broken (Mercy Thompson, #8)

Sunrise by Mullin: Done! A great conclusion to an action-packed trilogy, Sunrise will definitely satisfy fans of the Ashfall series. Check out my stop on the blog tour here, and be sure to enter the giveaway!

Night Broken by Patricia Briggs: I’m absolutely loving this newest installment in the Mercy Thompson series — and just wish I’d had the time to devote to reading it. I hope to finish in the next day or two!

Fresh Catch:

Here’s what the kiddo and I brought home from the library this week:

  1. I tried reading the Mercy Thompson series, but I just couldn’t get into the first book and ended up not liking it.

    I really did enjoy Over Sea, Under Stone, and would have loved it as a kid. I hope you two will like it, too!

    • I guess Mercy may not be for everyone (but I really, really love her!). Funny, my son and I have pretty much given up on Over Sea, Under Stone. I know the series is supposed to be terrific, but after about 4 or 5 chapters, neither of us felt engaged or like the story had taken off yet — so for now at least, we’ve put it aside and moved on to something else.
