Guess what...Its Monday! What are you reading this week?
This meme started with J Kaye's Blog and then was taken up by Sheila from Book Journey. Sheila then passed it on to Kathryn at the Book Date. It's a meme where you share what you read last week, what you're currently reading and what you plan on reading that week.
Thanks for stopping by. First let me just say that I have been in a little bit of a reading slump (for lack of a better word)... But I have regained some much needed reading pep,
Thanks for stopping by. First let me just say that I have been in a little bit of a reading slump (for lack of a better word)... But I have regained some much needed reading pep,
and below is what I am still reading this week. But not much has changed since last week, but still enjoying these reads.
What I'm Reading:
War correspondent Jennie King thinks she s just a temporary guest in her grandmother s Amish community while she recuperates from the devastating injuries sustained in a car bomb attack that changed her world. But when she meets Matthew Bontrager, the man she had a crush on as a teenager, she wonders if God has a new plan for her. Jennie has emotional and physical scars and though she feels she has come home to this man and this place, she's not sure she can bridge the difference between their worlds.

Two years ago, the aliens made contact. Now Cara Sweeney is going to be sharing a bathroom with one of them.
Handpicked to host the first-ever L’eihr exchange student, Cara thinks her future is set. Not only does she get a free ride to her dream college, she’ll have inside information about the mysterious L’eihrs that every journalist would kill for. Cara’s blog following is about to skyrocket.
Still, Cara isn’t sure what to think when she meets Aelyx. Humans and L’eihrs have nearly identical DNA, but cold, infuriatingly brilliant Aelyx couldn’t seem more alien. She’s certain about one thing, though: no human boy is this good-looking.
But when Cara's classmates get swept up by anti-L'eihr paranoia, Midtown High School suddenly isn't safe anymore. Threatening notes appear in Cara's locker, and a police officer has to escort her and Aelyx to class.
Cara finds support in the last person she expected. She realizes that Aelyx isn’t just her only friend; she's fallen hard for him. But Aelyx has been hiding the truth about the purpose of his exchange, and its potentially deadly consequences. Soon Cara will be in for the fight of her life—not just for herself and the boy she loves, but for the future of her planet.

When Ruby woke up on
her tenth birthday, something about her had changed. Something
frightening enough to make her parents lock her in the garage and call
the police. Something that got her sent to Thurmond, a brutal government
“rehabilitation camp.” She might have survived the mysterious disease
that had killed most of America’s children, but she and the others
emerged with something far worse: frightening abilities they could not
control.
Now sixteen, Ruby is one of the dangerous ones. When the truth comes out, Ruby barely escapes Thurmond with her life. She is on the run, desperate to find the only safe haven left for kids like her—East River. She joins a group of kids who have escaped their own camp. Liam, their brave leader, is falling hard for Ruby. But no matter how much she aches for him, Ruby can’t risk getting close. Not after what happened to her parents. When they arrive at East River, nothing is as it seems, least of all its mysterious leader. But there are other forces at work, people who will stop at nothing to use Ruby in their fight against the government. Ruby will be faced with a terrible choice, one that may mean giving up her only chance at having a life worth living.' to

Season Of The Devil by Pamela Southwood
Looking for readers who are a bit wild, have a little darkness in their own life, and don't mind reading about, or wearing a handcuff from time to time...
Welcome to Palm Beach!
SEASON OF THE DEVIL:
Love & Evil In Palm Beach
MEET THE HOT/DEVILISH MILLIONAIRES OF PALM BEACH AND THE GIRL WHO LOVES THEM!
Find Rich Men, True Love, And Keep Your Soul?
Kristen Winslow was beautiful, blonde, and somewhat naïve when it came to her men. She had a knack for picking the wrong ones! She was expected to marry within her social circle; but the wealthier they were, the more secrets they had!
Palm Beach is hiding even a bigger secret as the prestigious members of the Whitestone Country Club are running amok trying to "secure" dates for their highly anticipated Black Veil soirée. At this shadowy event it is never considered a privilege to be the Guest of Honor, and poor Kristen is perched right in the center of their sight lines. And, with these edgy millionaires, their playrooms take on a whole different meaning!
It has been quite a quest for the young socialite while searching for her prince.
