I hope you all had a great weekend. I got to see some friends, did a bit of shopping and had some ice cream. It is way too hot here and ice cream is a must.
On the reading front I finished a wonderful book. One Plus One by Jojo Moyes. Have you guys read it? If you haven’t and are looking for a charming and sweet story, you need this one. On the cover it has a blurb about Bridget Jones meets Little Miss Sunshine and I can see why.
So my other books were left to the side while I read this one but now I’m back to reading Brokken Monsters by Lauren Beukes, which is quite the creepy thriller but I’m very much intrigued.
I’m also still reading Vanishing Girls by Lauren Oliver. This book is not that long but it’s not holding my attention very much. I think it’s probably because I cannot stand one of the main characters. I’m very close to finishing it though so I will report back once I’m done.
Finally on the audiobook front, I just started Notorious by Allison Brennan. This is the first in the Max Revere series. I think this will be a good one for the gym. Now, let’s just hope I put in enough hours at the gym before the book is due back at the library. Ha.
What about you, what books are you reading?
It’s wicked hot isn’t it? Of course, it is August so it’s not unexpected. LOL
I’m curious about Broken Monsters. Have seen it, but I’m not sure I’ve read any reviews. Enjoy!
I started Broken Monsters and abandoned it. Since then, I’ve seen so many positive reviews that I wonder if I gave up too quickly. Vanishing Girls and Notorious both sound good–I followed the links. 🙂
Sounds like you had a great weekend!
Ice cream is always good. Even when it’s cold out. 🙂 Unfortunately, ice cream is my guilty pleasure. One Plus One by Jojo Moyes is on my radar to try. I’ve heard such great things about the author. I haven’t read Broken Monsters yet, but I plan to. I think I put it aside for other books after hearing Jenclair gave up on it. 🙂
oh I love the idea of Bridget Jones and Little Miss Sunshine!! Maybe I’ll have to move One Plus One up on my list. 🙂
And yes…melting here too. Might go grab some coffee ice cream out of the freezer now!
I loved One Plus One! Such a wonderful book!
Also, yes! Ice cream is a must! Just had some last night and yummmmm!
Oh, my library just got a copy in of the Moyes book and I must admit it did sit on my desk for a while as I had a quick look at it. I am trying hard to not start another new book for a while, but I will definitely add the book to my wishlist. I am always in the market for a nice charming story!
