It’s Monday! What Are You Reading? is a weekly meme hosted by Book Date .This meme is a great opportunity for book bloggers to showcase their ‘book-ish’ habits for the week. It is a good forum to share books read in the past week, current reads and upcoming reads. It is also a fantastic way to connect with fellow bookworms and add some books to your reading wishlist. Thanks for hosting Book Date!
The holidays have finally arrived for Mrs B’s household and I couldn’t be more relieved! I’ve already indulged in some binge reading and binge TV time (Netflix – Outlander). It has been nice to sit down and relax as well as catch up with friends this week. I hope you are all winding down as the Christmas holiday break makes its appearance.
Onto my reading wrap up for the past week. My reading really picked up this week and I finished four books.I reviewed one on my blog and the others on Goodreads with a star rating only, as I consider these books holiday reads. On the reviewing front, I published two reviews. If you wish to catch up on these reviews I’ll leave the links below.
So here is my reading journey for the week. If you are reading this, I greatly appreciate you stopping by my blog. I always welcome comments, so please feel free to connect with me. Otherwise, have a festive week! Mrs B

I was attracted to the books set in Venice but then I saw that you gave them a low star rating.. Looks like The Florentine Bridge was a hit, though. Happy reading for this week!

Thanks for stopping by Laura. The Florentine Bridge is the very best of the bunch here, highly recommended. One Summer in Venice was a nice and gentle read. The Girl From Venice didn’t really work for me.
Wishing you a lovely week.
