It’s Monday! What Are You Reading? is a weekly post to share what you recently finished reading, what you’re currently reading, and what you plan on reading this week. I often see (and admire!) these posts; especially the ones done by my friend Amy at Novel Gossip. So, I figured I would hop on the bandwagon! It’s hosted by Kathryn at Bookdate.
I have been a completely reading psychopath the last few weeks so let’s see how this goes…
What I Read Last Week (March 19th to March 26th):
Reviews Posted:
The Cleaner by Elisabeth Herrmann: This one I thought was okay, not 100% what I was expecting.
Six Stories by Matt Wesolowski: new and completely original narrative voice; I loved it.
Wicked Game and Deadly Game by Matt Johnson: police procedural novels that had a military twist. Kind of like Jack Reacher meets I Am Pilgrim.
Lola by Melissa Scrivner Love: A gang thriller; completely different from what I usually read but I didn’t mind it.
Abattoir of Dreams by Mark Tilbury: such an emotional read, highly recommended!
Look out for my reviews:
These books I finished last week, but haven’t posted the reviews yet so you will have to be patient!
Dead Gone by TJ Bearton
The River At Night by Erika Frenerick
Yes Please! by Amy Poehler
Watching Edie by Camilla Way
Currently Reading:
Up Next:
I’ve decided that although I will continue to keep reading mystery, thriller and suspense novels primarily, that I will try to incorporate more books from other genres into my weekly rotation! I need a break (for my own sanity!) and to keep things fresh. Hopefully you guys don’t mind the change up!
This week, I have a few books in mind…and hopefully will have time to read a few more!
What are you currently reading?!
Watching Edie, Six Stories, The Abattoir of Dreams, and River at Night are all on my TBR list! So are He Will Be My Ruin and Maybe Someday!

I love that you’re changing things up, every once in awhile I like to read something different as well…sometimes it’s just hard to find just the right ‘different’ though:)

That’s what I am finding too! I figure I may as well spread out as much as I can and see what helps me break out of my funk!

You read 11 books in one week? Wow, that’s about 2 months’ worth for me sometimes! Good for you! Looks like a nice variety – believe it or not, I haven’t read any of these.
Enjoy your books this week – looks like you have another great batch coming up!

What in the world, Sam; how are you reading so many books in a week??? Teach me your amazing ways. 😂
I really want to read Six Stories soon, it sounds really good! Lola sounds interesting enough that I’m putting it on the TBR! I have an e-ARC of Gone Without a Trace I’m hoping to read next month, so I hope I enjoy it!

Well I’m usually stuck to one book at a time and right now I’m reading Harry Potter and the order of the Phoenix. Live the series so far but seem to be struggling to finish this one, I think I just wasn’t in the mood for a long book.

So diverse reads. I have read (from all of the books you listed) Six Stories and Maybe Someday. I’m a Colleen Hoover fan too so I hope you enjoy it too.I also have Will To Live, The Trophy Taker and He Will Be My Ruin to read. You’ll probably beat me to it so I look forward to finding out more about these books in the near future! Happy reading!

This will be my second Colleen Hoover book but I found the first one to be such an easy read, I had to give another one a go!
