It's Monday! What Are You Reading? #19

Hosted weekly by The Book Date.

Happy Monday!

It has been a beautiful week! Combined with a light load of homework, I was able to enjoy plenty of time with friends, out of doors (running, walking the dog, playing wiffle ball), and reading. Though I caught a bit of a cold, I enjoyed last week.

WHAT I READ LAST WEEK

The Astonishing Color of After by Emily X.R. Pan

 A great YA contemporary of a girl discovering her family, history, and culture.

Behind Closed Doors by B.A. Paris

 A fantastic thriller.

The Exact Opposite of Okay by Laura Steven

Frustrating in its timeliness and still very funny, this is a good YA contemporary.

The Fellowship of the Ring by J.R.R. Tolkien

 LOVED it! Just wonderful.

Girls on Fire by Robin Wasserman

 HATED it! Just awful.

Nerve by Jeanne Ryan

So fun! I enjoyed this crazy story.

Ten by Gretchen McNeil

A reimagining of And Then There Were None with teenagers. Petty, but thrilling.

The Walls Around Us by Nova Ren Suma

LOVED it! An intriguing and ghostly story about friendship and justice.

WHAT I'M READING NOW

The Mermaid and Mrs. Hancock by Imogen Hermes Gowar

The Wicked Deep by Shea Ernshaw

WHAT I HOPE TO READ THIS WEEK

The Alchemist by Paulo Coelho 
Escaping From Houdini by Kerri Maniscalco
