It's Monday What are You Reading? March 10, 2014.

This meme starts at Book Journey!

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 good week reading though little time to keep up with reviews.  I posted two reviews, one with giveaway and a special giveaway with Friday Pick! Got most of the usual memes. :-)

I only did a little visiting - lots of room to improve this week!
Thanks as always to all the nice people who visit me.

These were last week's posts:

A Blind Goddess
Author: James R. Benn
Narrator: Peter Berkrot
This is starting with a lot of interest. I selected this through Audiobook Jukebox.
SUMMARY
March, 1944. US Army Lieutenant Billy Boyle, back in England after a dangerous mission in Italy, is due for a little R&R—and a promotion. But the now-Captain Boyle doesn’t get to kick back and enjoy his leisure time because two upsetting cases fall into his lap at once.
The first is a personal request from an estranged friend: Sergeant Eugene “Tree” Jackson, who grew up with Billy in Boston, is part of the 617th Tank Destroyers, the battalion poised to make history by being the US Army’s first combatant all–African American company. But making history isn’t easy, and the 617th faces racism at every turn. One of Tree’s men, a gunner named Angry Smith, has been arrested for a crime he almost certainly didn’t commit and faces the gallows if the real killer isn’t found. Tree knows US top brass won’t care about justice in this instance and asks Billy if he’ll look into it.

The Long Road: A Postapocalyptic Novel (The New World Series)
by G. Michael Hopf
I was glad to see that I had selected
this at NetGalley too
so I could continue the adventure.
Book Description
Publication Date: October 30, 2013
The End was just the beginning of the new world…
Only six weeks have passed since a super-EMP attack devastated the United States, but already, life has changed dramatically. Most of America has become a wasteland filled with starving bands of people, mobs and gangs. Millions are dead and millions more are suffering, with no end in sight.
For Gordon, Samantha, Sebastian, Cruz and Barone, the turmoil and chaos they dealt with in the early weeks after the attack will seem trivial in comparison to the collapse of society that plays out before their eyes. Uncertainty abounds as they all travel different paths in search of a safe place to call home. The only thing that is definite is that The Long Road will take its toll on all of them.

Desperately Seeking Suzanna
by Elizabeth Michels
I am just a couple pages in on this and enjoying. Reviewing for Sourcebooks.
Her Cinderella Moment
Sue Green just wanted one night to be the pretty one. But a few glasses of champagne and one wild disguise later, she's in some serious trouble. Who knew the devastatingly handsome face of Lord Holden Ellis would get in the way of her foot?  And how exactly did all that high-kick dancing start in the first place? At least she blamed it all on her new persona--Suzanna. So Society's most eligible bachelor will never find out the truth.

All Holden wants is the truth. Who was that vixen who seduced him so thoroughly, then disappeared? The only one who seems to have any answers about Suzanna is Miss Sue Green. She's promised to help him find his mystery woman, but in truth she's not being all that helpful. And in truth, the more time Holden spends with Sue--witty, pretty, and disarmingly honest--the more he realizes he may have found exactly what he's been looking for all along...


I am up to date with my daily Bible reading. :-)

Line Edits: We are now finalizing formatting for two ebook re-releases, as well as working on a new children's release.

I am continuing to enjoy reading books from my own TBR. :-) I didn't get done the number of reviews I planned this week. Now my backlog is six so I plan on at least four this week... maybe five.

March Scheduled - nothing dated but I plan to look for some book hops.

  1. The Long Road sounds quite intense, I hope you enjoy it. I'm avoiding Netgalley at the moment, I need to get through a good chunk of what I have first!

    Have a great week!

  2. You read and are reading a nice assortment of books. I am eager to read some of my TBR mountain but it won't happen until April. I over-committed to review books in March. Come see my Monday Report if you get a chance. Happy reading!
