It's Monday, What Are You Reading?
It has been a week. In a fun way, but in a busy way.
It started Sunday, when I went to a concert. It was the MercyMe concert, with Tim Timmons, Sam Wesley, and Big Daddy Weave as their opening acts. I had a lot of fun, although I was up in the nose bleed section. But I got home last Sunday night and didn't go straight to bed.
Then, this week, everyone who works for my director was in town for an all hands events. We had a few meetings and some team building events, like an escape room Wednesday night. It was all fun and good to see my co-workers (since none of my immediate co-workers are in the office these days), but it meant I didn't get as much work done as I needed to. This will be a very busy week coming up.
And the fun isn't over quite yet. Saturday night (tonight), I'm going to see a local theater's production of Wait Until Dark with a friend. I've seen the play before, and I'm looking forward to seeing it again. (And if you haven't seen the movie, I also recommend it.) Hopefully, it's a good production.
Joke of the Week:

This Coming Week on the Blog:
Wednesday - Book Review: Death on Cozumel Island by Cindy Qualye
Book Haul:
I've got a lot of books to talk about this week, so let's get to it, shall we?And let's start with the four books I've been teasing for the last couple of weeks. They aren't new authors to me, or you since I talk about them quite a bit around here.
I got the next two books in Liz Milliron's Laurel Highlands series - Harm Not the Earth and Lie Down with Dogs. Since I'm trying to catch up on the series as quickly as possible, I'll be reading one of them in the next couple of weeks and the other in July.
The other two books are also in series I'm trying to catch up on, but not as aggressively. They are Hot and Sour Suspects by Vivien Chien and Murder at Ochre Court by Alyssa Maxwell.
One of the artists at the concert I was at last week was selling a book, and I got it. I'm curious to see what Tim Timmons has to say since his story about fighting cancer is very interesting. Anyway, his book is Waking Up Again.
Also, my preorder of A Cute Little Murder by Molly Harper arrived. It involves two friends who are former teen detectives getting involved in a murder case as adults. Sounds like lots of fun to me.
Finally, I got an ARC via Netgalley for the newest Murder, She Wrote tie in novel, Murder Most Trivial. I'm a fan of this entry's author, Barbara Early, and I'm anxious to spend some more time with the characters I love.What I'm Currently Reading:
With all the crazy this week, I didn't have as much reading time as normal. Which means just a few hours ago, I finished up Stakeouts and Strollers by Rob Phillips. I was just about to start it when I created this post last weekend. Yes, that's slow for me. But I did enjoy the book. Full review to come in May.
And now? I'll be starting Murder Most Trivial since it comes out May 12th. It will take Jessica, Seth, Mort, and Mort's wife to Hollywood to participate in a trivia contest. Sounds like a fun premise to me. Hopefully, the execution lives up to it.
That's it for me. Have a great week!
