My Monday tradition, including a look back and a look ahead — what I read last week, what new books came my way, and what books are keeping me busy right now. Plus a smattering of other stuff too.
Life.
I am one proud mama! I attended my amazing daughter’s grad school graduation this weekend. She’s a smart, dedicated, loving, funny, quirky, intelligent woman, and I couldn’t be more impressed and proud of her accomplishments!
What did I read last week?
A Man Called Ove by Fredrik Backman: What a delight! My review is here.
Forever, Interrupted by Taylor Jenkins Reid: Beautiful and heartbreaking. My review is here.
Fresh Catch:
No new books this week… although I did indulge in Cyber Week sales by picking up several marked-down Kindle and Audible titles!
What will I be reading during the coming week?
Currently in my hands:
The Black Moon by Winston Graham: Continuing with my Poldark obsession — this is book #5 in the series.
Now playing via audiobook:
No idea! I finished my last audiobook while I was away, and haven’t had a chance to start a new one. I’ve added bunches to my Audible library recently, so maybe I’ll just choose at random!
Ongoing reads:
My ongoing reads with my book group (2 chapters per week of each):
- Written in My Own Heart’s Blood by Diana Gabaldon
- A Farewell To Arms by Ernest Hemingway
So many books, so little time…

Congrats to your daughter! Such a huge achievement.
Thank you!
Congratulations to your daughter! It sounds like she will have many successful years ahead of her. I cannot imagine how proud you are. I am so nervous that mine will be heading off to college and that is still 2 years out haha.
It’s so wonderful to see my “baby” so grown up and accomplished. 🙂 I understand how you feel with college approaching!
Aw, huge congratulations to your daughter! Quite an achievement. 🙂 I’m about to finish my current audiobook and I feel the same… I have a TON on my phone that I’ve been looking forward to so I feel a random pick will be in order. 🙂
Thank you!
