It's Monday What Are You Reading?

Happy Monday!!!! This meme is hosted by Sheila at Book Journey. The organizational freak in me loves this meme because it gets my reading organized for the week. However, this is the first week that I don't really have much of a plan! That's okay, because it's a busy week for me so I probably won't get much reading done anyway.

What I Read Last Week:
The Cause Within You by Matthew Barnett
Daughters-in-law by Joanna Trollope
Bringing Up Girls by James Dobson

What I'm Reading Now:
Irma Voth by Miriam Toews

What I'm Reading Next:

    I'm reading 'Life Is What You Make It' by Carl Mathis. It's off to a rocky start but I'm on a blog book tour so I have to finish it. The verdict is still out on this one.

    I haven't read anything by Joanna Trollope for ages (I used to run to the shop/library as soon as she had a new book out). Hope you enjoyed it.

    I'm doing 2 read-a-longs at the moment and still try to read some other books in between. Busy!

    I think this meme helps me get my reads organized, too. I usually plan what I am going to read next when I am writing it. :)

    I haven't heard of any of the books you've written about, though. Will have to check them out.

    I love participating in this meme because it helps me figure out a game plan for the week!

    I'm not familiar with any of your books this week - will look forward to reading your reviews.

Welcome to Willow Cottage - throw open the shutters, let in the sea breeze and make yourself completely at home.  Oh, and please do leave a comment in the Guestbook! Annie Butterworth is the landlady of Willow Cottage, a beautiful cottage in the English countryside with a colourful array of guests.  Every guest is encouraged to write their thoughts in the guestbook and do they ever!  Love, loss, happiness, sadness, guilt, affairs, births, and surprises, it’s all in there.  Even Annie’s life gets caught up in the book.

The Guestbook by Holly Martin is a lovely, sweet, and unique book.  Written in the form...
