It’s Monday! What Are You Reading? a place to meet up and share what you have been, and are about to be reading over the week. It’s a great post to organise yourself. It’s an opportunity to visit and comment and er… add to your groaning TBR pile! So welcome in everyone. This meme started on J Kaye’s blog and then was hosted by Sheila from Book Journey. Sheila then passed it on to Kathryn here at The Book Date.
Jen Vincent, Teach Mentor Texts, and Kellee of Unleashing Readers decided to give It’s Monday! a kidlit focus. If you read and review books in children’s literature – picture books, chapter books, middle grade novels, young adult novels or anything in those genres – join them.
WHAT I READ LAST WEEK:
(Library/Sora)
I actually was on a roll reading Karen Marie Moning's Fever series but just wasn't drawn to read Dani's story. I may go back to it at some point but knew I had many other books on my list. I did love this series and will review them as a lot soon.
I have owned The Coldest Girl in Coldtown for a few years but to be honest, it is just easier to read on my Kindle so I checked it out from our Sora system (that is our schools library system). I will review this soon as well, it wasn't as good as I hoped but I didn't hate it.
(REVIEWS COMING SOON)
***********
WHAT I'M READING NOW:
A chilling feminist novel set in a near-future dystopia, Anna explores the conflicts between selfhood and expectations, safety and control, and the sacrifices we make for the sake of protection.
Beaten. Branded. Defiant.
Anna is a possession. She is owned by the man named Will, shielded from the world of struggles by his care. He loves her, protects her, and then breaks her. Anna is obedient, dutiful, and compliant. Anna does not know her place in the world.
When she falls pregnant, Anna leaves her name behind, and finds the strength to run. But the past - and Will - catch up with her in an idyllic town with a dark secret, and this time, it’s not just Anna who is at risk.
