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 being hosted by Alyce at At Home With Books.

A very slow mailbox week which is very okay with me. I was too busy to get much done last 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 finished in the last week:

Nada it was a very slow reading week for me

Books I am reading this week:

Silver Tongued Devil - Jaye Wells
Harbor - John Ajvide Lindqvist (this one is pretty good but has been put on hold for a bit)
Romeo & Juliet - William Shakespeare (this book is taking me months to read but I expected it would)

Books to Finish This week:
Silver Tongued Devil - Jaye Wells

    Enjoy whatever you read. Better to be slow and enjoy the nuances of Shakespeare rather than rushing through it.

    I've had some slow weeks too, especially before Christmas.

    I totally understand the Shakespeare taking a long time to read - I had to reward myself when I battled George Eliot's Middlemarch. Every 10% I'd let myself read a new book!

    I haven't read Shakespeare since I was in high school but if I tried today, I wouldn't plan on finishing it soon either.

    Slow weeks are good because they allow you to play a little catch up.

    Here what came in my mailbox

    It's ok to take months for a book if you are enjoying it. Shakespeare needs to be savored. Have a good week and happy reading!

    Slow weeks are sometimes welcome; it gives you a chance to concentrate on other important things. I signed up for a Classics reading challenge and the play I chose was Shakespeare's "A Midsummer Night's Dream" - I expect it will take a wile to get through! :)

    I didn't receive anything, but that's been by design lately. I've been trying to catch up on reading from my shelves.

    I haven't read Shakespeare in years, I wonder what I would think of his work now. Hope you have a great week.

    When you're done with Romeo & Juliet you should watch Shakespeare in Love.

    With the three day weekend, I had a chance to finish a bunch of books I've been working on the last month. Please come see what I'm reading.

    A catch up week is always a good week in my book :-)

    Have a great week!
