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 had a busy week having to catch up from my week off. Reading was good but a little slow. I only finished two books and I did get three reviews posted, one with ARC Giveaway.
I also posted the weekly Mailbox Monday, Friday Pick Giveaway, Saturday Snapshot, Sharing Beyond Books Comment Giveaway and Sunday Words.
I had very little visiting last week. *Sigh*. I'll have to try harder this week.
Thanks as always to all the nice people who visit me.

Convict Dad
by P. Ryan Hembree
I just started this and I like the easy style.
I received this at EPICon 2013 from the publisher for review.
Book Description:
As a child, Fae Kardell stands helpless while police handcuff her father and drag him away to a police car. A jury later convicts him of murdering two young girls. Fae knows he's innocent. From behind prison walls, Royce Kardell finds a way to cope with his incarceration and maintain an active role in his family. Fifteen years later when Fae returns to her hometown to close the family home after her mother's death, she hears a deathbed confession which proves her father's innocence. As the real killer lurks nearby, details of the girls' deaths surface, but is it enough to justify her dad's release from prison? If she pushes for a new trial and she succeeds, her father could be freed-or-if she fails, he could get the death penalty.
I am really lagging but still listening to The Listener's Bible NIV read by Max McLean. [Reading and listening on MP3.] I have been remiss and not keeping up with daily reading with my DH.
Line Edits: Still working. Several more releases being prepared for the next few weeks. I am still working on new print formatting this week.
I forgot to include my September calendar last week. It is fairly open and flexible - YAY!
I did pretty good in August with only one print book and author book carried over into September.
