Sheila @ One Persons Journey through a world of Books wants to know what we're reading. I'm only too happy to oblige!
Although April was a hectic month for me, I had a lot of reading done this month. I hope May turns out to be the same for me, but I'm certainly counting on more downtime as well.
Books completed in the last week
The Coffins of Little Hope by Timothy Schaffert: This book has been receiving a lot of buzz lately, but for some reason it didn't work well for me. In Zanesville by Jo Ann Beard: I enjoyed this book a lot! I can't wait to review this - hopefully this week itself! Wherever Nina Lies by Lynn Weingarten: After all the heavy reading, I wanted some light reading and so I picked this one. This was a cute book but it didn't work too well for me.
News from over my blog
Reviews up!
I barely got to any of the books on my pile last week, so my reading for this week has the same set of books.
The Shadow of the Wind by Carlos Ruiz Zafón: Since I already have two review books lined for this week, I figured one non-review book might be nice to ease some pressure that I was talking of yesterday. This book has been on my shelf for ages, so I'm glad to be eventually getting to it!
The Lost Girls by Amanda Pressner, Jennifer Baggett, and Holly Corbett: I just started this one yesterday and it's wonderful reading so far. It reads like an adventure by three girls with whom I could relate so well.
Kamchatka by Marcelo Figueras: I haven't yet started this one, so I'm hoping to do so sometime this week. It sounds fascinating - set in Buenos Aires, from the perspective of a 10-year old, whose family is going into hiding.

Shadow of the Wind sound interesting and I do really enjoy Zafon's writing hope you have a great week!
Looks like you had an amazing month in April i hope it follows through.
The Lost Girls is one i cannot wait to get my hands on as well as The Kitchen Daughter - i have seen them both on several blogs and they look juicy!
Hope all is well - oh i updated my PIE!!! :D
I enjoyed Wherever Nina Lies and it's quite a hit with the girls at my school, too bad it didn't work for you. But, I really enjoyed Shadow of the wind and wanted to go to Barcelona once I was finished with it!
In Zanesville is one I've been noticing lately. It looks good!
Here's MY MONDAY MEMES POST

Wherever Nina Lies is actually a good story and my 15-year old self would have loved it! It's just this old 26-year old me who find issues.
