It’s Monday! What Are You Reading? is hosted by Sheila at Book Journey, check it out and join in the fun! This is a great way to plan out your reading week and see what others are currently reading as well… you never know where that next “must read” book will come from!

Happy Monday! I hope you had a fantastic week! It was a week of many reviews here on The Relentless Reader, yay!

Reviews:
Quick Thoughts on the books I read for the 24 Hour Read-a-Thon

The Forgetting Tree by Tatjana Soli

The Empty Family by Colm Tóibín

Why Have Kids by Jessica Valenti

The 100 Year Old Man Who Climbed Out of the Window and Disappeared by Jonas Jonasson This was so stinking good! The next two books I started were duds in comparison and ended up being DNFs for me!

Currently Reading:

The Boy in the Suitcase by Lene Kaaberol and Agnette Friis

Upcoming Reads:

I have a stack of library books to get through. I’m excited about all of them though so it’s certainly no hardship! I love my library, but I’m going to have to ban myself from requesting books so often. I’m feeling a bit overwhelmed with all of the books in my house at this time and I have to get a grip! Here’s what I have coming up next:

The Uncommon Reader by Alan Bennett

Charlotte and Emily : a novel of the Brontës by Jude Morgan

Midnight in Peking by Paul French

Never fall down : a boy soldier’s story of survival by Patricia McCormick


Have a jolly week! Cheerio!
