It's Monday! What are you reading?

This week is the Bout of Books read-a-thon. I am really excited. Like, way more than I probably should be. This is the only read-a-thon I do, so I get into it. Here is my TBR for the week.

What are you reading this week? Are you participating in Bout of Books? Let me know in the comments. Check out more TBRs at Book Date.

April Wrap Up

Here are the books I read in April and some of my thoughts.

Truly Madly Guilty

Big Little Lies blew me out of the water. This one, not so much. Maybe I would have enjoyed it more if I had read it first. I felt like it was trying to hard to have big twists. It was okay. I used it for the place you want to visit category for the MMD reading challenge.

The Wife, the Maid, and the Mistress

This was the Modern Mrs. Darcy book club pick for April, and I loved it. It was a lot of fun and kept me guessing until the end. If you like fictionalized accounts of real life events, you would probably enjoy this one.

A Stranger at Fellsworth

I have really enjoyed this whole series. I reviewed this one here.

The Secret Keeper

I saw the twist coming in this one, but it was still really enjoyable. I'm looking forward to reading more by Kate Morton.

A Secret Courage

This was a very enjoyable WW2 mystery. I reviewed it here.

The Memory of You

I was given this one for free for review. This is a well written story with great characters. It deals with sensitive topics such as depression, mental illness, and grief. I would recommend this book if you enjoy contemporary women's fiction. A Fragile Hope I didn't like this one. Here's my review. Check out more book reviews and reading wrap ups at Modern Mrs. Darcy.

May Book Haul Week #1

Ok, there were a bunch of freebies this week. And, there are a lot of great sales this month, so I have a feeling my book hauls are going to be pretty big in the month of May. I'm trying to spread the book buying out a bit. Here's a tip: to keep track of books that are on sale that I may want to buy, I download the sample to my fire. That way I can check easily to see if it's still on sale. Anyway, here are the books I got this week.

Can't Wait for Before the Rain Falls

Can't wait for:

Before the Rain Falls

When does it release? May 16, 2017

Why am I waiting? I love books told in two time periods. This one sound like it will have a strong mystery running through it.
