    Looking forward to your thoughts on Water for Elephants and Bad Girls Don't Die. I have Water for Elephants on audio and Katie Alender's book is on my wishlist.

    I think I'm the only person not to have liked Water for Elephants. Maybe I will have to wait for the movie to see if it sways me one way or the other.
    Have a great reading week.
    Here is my Monday review:

    Is the audio of Water for Elephants any good? I know people love the book, but the reader can make or break an audio.

    You got some great looking books! I'm hoping to get to Water for Elephants soon - I want to read it before the movie comes out.

    Hi! My book group read Water for Elephants and loved it. I liked the audio version of the book too; I thought the reader did an excellent job.

    have a happy reading week!

    I'm anxious for your review on Water for Elephants, I've heard mixed reviews. I must be the only person who hasn't read it yet.

    Gerry Tales is one I've seen around...like the look of Bad Girls Don't Die.

    Hope you enjoy them all.

    Hi Zia,

    That's a nice stash of books you've got there. If only I'd had such a productive week in the way of reading last week. Oh well.

    Here’s my Monday

    I was all bummed, I didn't get any books completed last week. :( But I am hoping to have a big week this week. Hope you have a great week yourself. :)
