It's Monday! What Are You Reading? (September 23, 2024)

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.

Other Than Reading...

This was another quiet week. While I am feeling better, I am still not feeling well. I spent most of the week coughing and laying around on the couch. Luckily, there was baseball to watch and audiobooks to listen to. 

I am almost finished with my reread of Jayne Castle's paranormal romantic suspense series set on the world of Harmony. These are fun stories, and I especially like each dust bunny character. Also, since I've read them before, if I fall asleep for a while it isn't hard to catch myself up on the story again when I awake. 

Baseball is getting to the nail-biting part of the season. My Braves are fighting for a place in the playoffs. Each game is a must win and sometimes they aren't winning. I may have to switch to watching football since I've heard that the Minnesota Vikings are doing well this year. 

There is nothing on my schedule for this week. My brother has Monday and Tuesday off. Hopefully, he'll have some ideas for cooking so that there are leftovers. Otherwise, he has three 11 - 6:30 shifts and two 3:30 - 11 shifts. We won't be eating dinner together on any of his workdays but should have late lunches together when he works until 11.
