It's Monday - What are you Reading? is a weekly meme hosted by Sheila at bookjourney to allow us to share with others in the book-loving cyberworld what is on our reading plates.
This week I finished one book: Crossing the Heart of Africa by Julian Smith, which I will be reviewing later this week.
Books in Progress:
- The Best European Fiction 2010 edited by Aleksandar Hemon (I'm dipping in and out of it as I have time, some of the stories so far are really good, others just aren't my cup of tea)
- War & Peace by Leo Tolstoy
This week I also prepared my reading lists for three challenges in 2011: What's in a Name Challenge 4, Back to the Classics Challenge, and the TBR Pile Challenge. With only one exception, which I can pick up at the library, these books will be from my to-read shelves. There are a few more challenges that I might join, but I need to give it some more thought.
What are you reading this week?
Oh, I didn't realise you were also reading Crossing the Heart of Africa! I read it too last week and will review later this week.
ReplyDeleteOh, challenges! It's getting hopeless, I've got so many planned. Maybe I'll drop them all. Or some. Or none. :-)
I've heard some wonderful things about The Best European Fiction so looking forward to reading your thoughts on that! Here's my Mailbox: Coffee and a Book Chick -- Mailbox Monday...
ReplyDeleteUlysses and Proust's books take a good deal of concentration. For Proust I can only manage 30 pages a week.
ReplyDeleteI was sick over the weekend but I got some reading done.
I know I am a little late, but I love these posts. I always love to see what everybody else is reading. Gives me so many ideas of books I want to add to my to-read list. I am reading "Tess of the d'Urbervilles" by Thomas Hardy.
