It's Monday! What Are You Reading? From Picture Books to YA


Not surprisingly, I have a lot of bookish friends. Through social media I see what they're reading, which can be inspirational and intimidating at the same time. I love finding new titles based on what they're reading, but I'm often discouraged at my very slow reading pace compared to them. I know that compared to the general population I read more than most people, but it's hard not to wonder how my friends -- who are employed full-time, blog often, and network online -- still manage to read more than I do! I know it's not a race, but instead of feeling inadequate, I need to feel motivated by them and do the best that I can to read as much as I can.

[To rehash the concept :: post what you read last week, what you're reading now, and what you plan to read this week. If you have a review of the book(s), great! If you have a picture of the book(s), wonderful! If you have a book giveaway, fantastic! If you just list the title(s) of the book(s), not a problem! Make it as simple or as complex as you need it to be. At least, that's the message I got. This version of the meme is hosted by Jen and Kellee of Teach Mentor Text, which, in turn, was inspired by Sheila over at Book Journey, who hosts the original It's Monday! What Are You Reading?]
