It's Monday! What Are You Reading? (August 10, 2020) - New

 

It's Monday, What Are You Reading? is now hosted by Kathryn at The Book Date.

It’s Monday!  What Are You Reading is where we gather to share what we have read this past week and what we plan to read this week.  It is a great way to network with other bloggers, see some wonderful blogs, and put new titles on your reading list.

I will be combining my YA and adult reading and purchases on this one weekly roundup.

Other Than Reading... 

I had a pretty quiet week except for an unexpected dentist appointment after I lost part of a filling on a front tooth. I had a couple of days of discomfort before my appointment mainly because the remaining tooth was sharp and I kept catching it on my lip. But all is well now with my new filling.

I also took a couple of long walks early in the week since the temperatures had dropped out of the "very hot and humid" range. Late in the week the heat and humidity were back and I stayed at home. Otherwise nothing new and different happened where I live. 

Read Last Week

If you can't wait until the review shows up on my blog, reviews are posted to LibraryThing and Goodreads as soon as I write them (usually right after I finish reading a book.)

• Death at High Tide by Hannah Dennison (Review; August 18) - First in a new cozy series starring two sisters. My review will be posted on August 12.
• Every Step She Takes by Kelley Armstrong (Mine) - A real page turner of a thriller which has hints of the #MeToo movement with intriguing characters and a very fast paced plot. My review will be posted on August 15.
• The Silence by Kendra Elliot (Review; August 25) - A return engagement for Agent Ava McLane and Detective Mason Callahan has them searching for a murderer and ending up deep inside a conspiracy. Lots of action and lots of plot twists and turns. My review will be posted on August 18.

• At All Costs by David Weber (Mine; Audiobook) - Book 11 in the Honor Harrington series was 32 hours of political intrigue and space battles. My review will be posted on Dec. 16.
• Storm from the Shadows by David Weber (Mine; Audiobook) - This is the second in the Honor Harrington - Saganami Island spinoff and stars Honor's best friend Michelle Henke who is also an admiral in the Manticoran Navy. She has been posted to the Talbot Quadrant and needs to fend off Manpower's plots in order not to begin a war with the Solarian Navy. My review of this 30 hours story will be posted on October 22.
• Torch of Freedom by David Weber and Eric Flint (Mine; Audiobook) - This is the second book in the Torch spinoff to the Honor Harrington series and stars Anton Zilwicki and Victor Cachat along with a host of others.
