It's Monday! What Are You Reading?


Last week was Spring Break.  I got to read a lot.  I finished two books, started one but didn't like it so I put it down and started another one that I do like.

I'm on a Fern Michaels kick.  My principal's wife told me about Michaels' series The Sisterhood.  It sounded like a series I'd like so I started it.  As I've been reading it I've been getting the feeling that I've read these books before.  Actually at this point I'm pretty sure I have read these books before.  I'm still reading them because I don't really remember them.  Ha!

I like that the books are about strong women taking care of business.  Taking care of themselves and each other.

The dialogue can be a little goofy but still fun.

There are a ton of books in this series, like 20 something books.  I've been trying to read books that aren't in the series in between books in this series so that I don't get bored with The Sisterhood.

I did that with the Stephanie Plum series by Janet Evanovich.  I read all 20 something books she had out at the time one summer.  I was kind of tired of the series by book 11 or 12 but I kept reading the books because I wanted to find out what happened and I couldn't make myself stop.

I'd like to take my time with this series.

If you like series read this one!

What are you reading?

  1. I started the Stephanie Plum series but after a time they all seemed to be repeats of the same thing. Should I have kept going? I'll have to look into Fern Michaels. And what am I currently reading? I just finished Running the Rift and loved it. Now it's library day so we'll see which book I read next!

    1. I think if you read the Plum series you should read a couple of books in between because the storyline is so similar. I really like the characters in the book which is why I keep reading them.

  2. I also have started reading books that were new to me or so I thought, but the story started sounding familiar even though I couldn't figure out how it ended and needed to finish.

  3. I've been listening to the Molly Murphy mystery series on audible lately, and I'm really enjoying it.
