What Are You Reading? ~ Jan. 16th, 2019

What are you Reading?  Let me know what your current read is, what you recently finished reading, and what you plan on reading next! 

Hello, my friends! The last few days have been raining here in Southern California! I love the rain! It's perfect for curling up on the couch and reading a good book. If only I could read all day! Now, that would be lovely! :)

Here's my list: 

I'm currently reading The Outlaw's Mail Order Bride by Linda Broday. I'm so fascinated by the thought of mail-order brides, and I love reading about them! I'm sure they didn't really turn out as wonderful as these stories turn out to be. I imagine it was a pretty scary proposition. Anyway, I'm enjoying this one! :)

I'm about 35% finished with Sense & Sensibility by Jane Austen. I have to have 50% read by this Saturday for reading group. I should be able to do that. :) 








Recently Finished

I recently finished reading Praying with Jane: 31 Days Through the Prayers of Jane Austen by Rachel Dodge. I loved it! I didn't get to it daily, so it took me a while to finish. I loved reading Jane's prayers. Rachel broke these down into a 31-day devotional. It's really a lovely book. 

I also finished re-reading Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire by J.K. Rowling. Of course, I loved it. I had to stop myself from grabbing the next one in the series (which is my favorite!) because I have some books I need to read for review. 



The week before, I finished re-reading Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban by J.K. Rowling. Loved!








What's next? 

I still need to read The Last Letter by Rebecca Yarros for review. I was going to read this one first, but I looked at my list and saw I needed to review The Outlaw's Mail Order Bride first. :) The Last Letter looks good! I'm excited to start on it!

  1. I just finished The Outlaw's Mail Order Bride and loved it. They had such a hard time of it in the past that I was really rooting for them. I agree that the romanticized idea of 'mail order' as a trope is better than reality. :)

    Cheering you on to being ready for your book club discussion and yay for finishing Prayers.

    Hope the Yarros is a good one for you.

    I'm reading through My Very Austen Valentine anthology at the moment.
