Mailbox Monday & What Are You Reading

Mailbox Monday was originally hosted by Marcia at the Printed page but now it is a traveling meme. This month it is hosted by Amused by Books.

I received a couple of books this week:








































It's Monday What are you reading this week? Hosted by Sheila at One Person's Journey Through A World of Books. This is a meme to list the books completed last week, the books currently being read, and the books to be finished this week.

Books I am reading this week:

    Romeo and Juliet is not my favorite Shakespeare play but it is the first one I read and very accessible unlike some of his others like the history plays. I hope you like it!

    I can't wait to read The Future of Us. I was a teen in 96 so it will be a nice flashback in a way.

    I also want to read The Iron Knight and Want to Go Private. I've got The Iron Knight on my Kindle but haven't started it yet. I have mixed feelings about that series but I liked The Iron Queen so I am hopeful...

    Have a great week!

    Wow, I thought everyone had to read Shakespear in high school. R&J is easy to understand; unfortunately it doesn't have a happy ending.

    I hope you like Romeo and Juliet! I've always loved it, but Midsummer's Night Dream is my favorite Shakespeare play.

    I can't wait to see what you thought of The Iron Knight. I recently read The Iron King and have books 2 and 3 ready to go!!

    I really enjoyed Romeo and Juliet - hope you do too. It's a classic in the truest sense.

    New follower here!

    The Future of Us looks like a great book.

    Not a big fan of R&J. I'm more of an Othello and Richard III fan...they have better villains ;)

    Romeo and Juliet isn't my fav. either. My favorite tragedy is Hamlet. But my all time favorite of the Bard's plays is Much Ado About Nothing.

    Three-quarters of what I read this week was in the form of children's picture books. Please come see what they were.

    Interesting cover on Hades. I hope you enjoyed Kagawa's book. I've got that one on the Nook and just haven't gotten around to it yet. Have a great week and enjoy your new books!

    Hades looks so good!

    A Midsummer's Night Dream is the best Shakespeare play in my opinion. I love it!
