it's monday! what are you reading? (aug. 1)

It’s Monday, what are you reading? is hosted by Sheila over at Book Journey.

Just a quick one cause it’s a long weekend. I love long weekends! But, I hate having less time to read. So busy!

But with that said, I did finish The Awakening by Kelley Armstrong. I have to say, the ending to this one was much more satisfying than the end to the first. And yet I am no less excited to read the third.

I am still working on Sarah’s Key by Tatiana De Rosnay. I am loving every page of it and can’t wait to see what happens next. But. As I think I said last week, I can only bear to read it a couple sections at a time. The second half is easier. I wouldn’t say the focus has changed, but there is more to focus on. (Curious enough to check it out yet? Heh)

So this week I am hoping to finish that one up. I have also downloaded Lord of Scoundrels by Loretta Chase for my kindle read. I thought a romance would counterbalance the sadness nicely. And so far it’s a historical romance that isn’t overwhelming so. Think I’m going to enjoy that one too.

I am hoping to start something completely different, and maybe a little fluffy, when I am done with these. I am thinking Strawberry Shortcake Murder by Joanne Fluke. I read the first in the series a while back (this is the second), and enjoyed it. So, I thought this might be a good time to give the second one a go.

What are you finding yourself reading this summer? Serious ‘thinking’ reads, or light ‘fluffy’ reads?
