It's Monday, What Are You Reading?
He is risen! Happy Easter!
I'm doing better health wise than I was last week. Still have a bit of a cough occasionally, still a bit congested. It's that last lingering part that takes forever to go away. Sounds like my family has been hit much harder. And those who weren't sick last week got sick this week, too. I'm very fortunate compared to them.
Other than that, it was a quiet week. Didn't really go anywhere until Friday night when I went to my church's Good Friday service. Not that I had anything planned I skipped because of being sick. We started month end at work this week. Hard to believe the month is over already, right?

This Coming Week on the Blog:
Book Haul:
The first two are the two I teased in last week's post. I had the post office hold my mail while I was on vacation, and so I didn't actually get these until this week anyway.
The first is Never Try to Catch a Falling Knife by Skye Alexander. This series is set in the 1920's and featuring a jazz singer as the main character. I've been eyeing it for a while and finally took the plunge.
Meanwhile, I also go my preorder of A Midnight Puzzle by Gigi Pandian. This is the third Secret Staircase Mystery. With how much I loved the second in the series when I read it in January, I'm really looking forward to diving into this one.
Speaking of books I enjoyed earlier in the year, I also got the second Bee Keeper Mystery from Jennie Marts - Kill or Bee Killed. This book will be out at the beginning of June, and I'm looking forward to it.
Finally, I snagged Ready to Fumble by Christy Barritt. This book has been on my radar for a while, so when I noted that it was free for Kindle, I snagged it. Sounds like a fun fist book in a series. We'll see when I get a chance to read it.
What I'm Currently Reading:
I'm glad to hear you're feeling better and hopefully your family will soon as well! And truly, where did March go? Your books look fun , especially 'A Midnight Puzzle' looks good! Fingers crossed you enjoy it just as much as the second one in the series! I hope you have a lovely week :)

Glad to hear you are feeling better, Mark. I hope the family gets to feeling better soon as well. Have a wonderful Easter!
ReplyDeleteI'm glad you and your family are recovering. Sickness really hit your group hard. And at such a bad time.
ReplyDeleteMarch has flown by. Time speeds up so much as we get older.
Urg! So sorry to hear that the rest of the family have also been smitten:(. I hope you all recover really soon and that this coming week is a kind one, Mark.
ReplyDeleteHappy Easter! I'm glad you're feeling good enough to attend your church observances. The history of An Orphan of Hell's Kitchen sounds interesting and new to me.
ReplyDeleteI'm curious about Yosemite. Enjoy your week!
ReplyDeleteHappy Easter! I'm sorry to hear you haven't been well and that your family is also going through it. I hope everyone gets better soon and stays healthy!
ReplyDeleteI am glad you're feeling better but hope it all goes away soon. Lingering cough and stuffy head are so not fun.
ReplyDeleteI hope you feel better soon! Happy Easter.
ReplyDeleteI've been reading A Midnight Puzzle for a while now, I got it from NetGalley. I love the premise of the series, but am not sure I will continue it after the third one, unless it really pulls me in.
ReplyDeleteThere's been so much gunk around lately I think everyone has been sick. I'm glad you're feeling better and hopefully the lingering cough goes away soon. I really enjoyed A Midnight Puzzle. Have a great week!
ReplyDeleteI enjoyed A Midnight Puzzle. Glad you are feeling better.

Glad you are feeling better and hope your family bounces back quickly. I managed to finish my last March book late last night so I need to plan my April reading out today. Hope you have a wonderful week!
ReplyDeleteI have noticed that the months zip by faster now that I'm older. It is hard to believe that it is April already. I hope you and your family are all feeling better or will be soon. I liked A Midnight Puzzle but the rest of your books are new to me. Come see my week here. Happy reading!
ReplyDeleteHope you and your family are back to feeling top notch soon. Your new books sound great, especially A Midnight Puzzle. Hope you enjoy your week.
