As celebration for the new Bloggers' Alliance for Nonfiction Devotees ( nonfictiondevotees.tumblr.com/), I'm cheering on every one's nonfiction reading today. So, yay for Seabiscuit, The Life and Times of the Thunderbolt Kid, and The Innocents Abroad!
Major Pettigrew has been on my wishlist for a while.
Do hope you manage that trip and if so, (and you are not here next Monday), Happy Birthday for next Monday!

I have the Big Cherry Holler with me, but because I have not read the 1st in the series and have not got that book, I have to wait!
I really want to read The Color Purple!
I think it's time for a reread of The Color Purple…and I see a Big Stone Gap book there, (I think!).
At any rate, Big Cherry Holler looks tempting!
Here's MY MONDAY MEMES POST
I will have to read Life and Times of the Thunderbolt Kid – I have always enjoyed Bill Bryson.
I really liked Stardust (I liked the movie even more).
I want to read Major Pettigrew's Last Stand and the Mercy Thompson series. I also plan to try Adriana Trigiani's books sometime too.
I hope you have a great week!
I hope you have a great Birthday getaway where ever you end up! It sounds like fun, no matter where you go!
Did you know that The Maze Runner was my very first review? Kind of funny trivia. LOL
Hope you have a fabulous reading week and if you get a second stop my to see what I've been reading at There's A Book! 🙂
This week I finished only library books and review copies. Please come see what I read.
You had a fabulous week. Enjoy your books and your week.
