Sunday Salon: Mid-August Books

Welcome to the Sunday Salon where bloggers share their reading each week.Visit The Sunday Post hosted by The Caffeinated Bookreviewer; Also visit It's Monday: What Are You Reading hosted by Book Journey, and Mailbox Monday each week.

My granddaughter has shifted her focus from all things My Little Pony to all things Frozen. Just sent off lots of Disney picture books, coloring books, and stickers, with the story and theme. Hope that will make her birthday a lot of fun. Am on the lookout for the t-shirts.

Goodreads is down right now, so here are some amazon links to books, mostly thrillers or mysteries,  recently added to my TBR:

Last Winter We Parted
Dog Beach


Blood Lake

Deadly Bonds
Lola Montez Starts a Revolution

Click on the covers and/or titles beneath the pictures to see the book descriptions.

    Happy reading!

  10. Nice looking books. I added a bunch of mysteries too. But they won't show up until next week's Stacking the Shelves posts. I am deep into reading down my review stack before school starts and my reading drops to a more reasonable level. You can see my week here. Happy reading!
