Nothing. I didn’t quite finish The Grapes of Wrath before our book club meeting today, but I gave it a good shot.
The Grapes of Wrath by John Steinbeck
The Little Giant of Aberdeen County by Tiffany Baker, read by Carrington MacDuffie
I may try to re-read The Great Gatsby by F. Scott Fitzgerald before the movie comes out. I haven’t decided yet though. The sunshine and warmer weather have left me wanting to read lighter fare!

I haven't read The Great Gatsby yet. Shame on me! I was supposed to have read it in college…
I am curious about The Little Giant of Aberdeen County. I love that title and I've heard it is a good book club book.
Justed finished reading Knots and Crosses and started Haunted Ground.
Why do they keep making movies that I need to read the books for? Fortunately, that isn't the case with The Great Gatsby, but still!
I just saw the movie trailor, cool. I enjoyed your memoir review.
Have fun at book club! I loved The Grapes of Wrath – hope you like it too and that you have a good discussion about it.
Have a good week!
I do enjoy Mary Kay Andrews, and The Summer Rental was such fun. Have a great week!
Here's MY MONDAY MEMES POST
I read the book when I was about 13 and I was disappointed, but I think I should reread it now and see if I get more from it – my tastes were very different back then. The trailer for the new movie looks INCREDIBLE! Totally going…
I'm sure The Great Gatsby will be a popular read over the next few weeks – I hope you enjoy it!
Have a great reading week!

I also have the The Great Gatsby on my list to read this week as well!! Nice selection of books you have!
I agree about weather and books. Here its hot and humid. No inclination to read at all.
I didn't finish any books this week either but you are lucky to have some reviews stored up, review-wise my blogging week was a dust bowl.
I have been thinking about rereading The Great Gatsby before the movie too. As much as I want to see it, I fear that Hollywood will blow the Daisy/Gatsby affair out of proportion. Or maybe I'm just a pessimist?
Have a great week in reading!
Just read a light one this weekend too as I didn't make it to the conference due to snowstorm! yikes! glad I was home safe and could read something enjoyable 🙂
Happy reading week even if it's less than you hope for..
Ha! I just watched the promo for Great Gatsby on my TV!! 🙂 Fantastic timing.
Have a lovely reading week!! 🙂 What are you reading this week @ the Brunette Librarian’s Blog
I am with you – sunny days make me want to read lighter stuff as well. And I love Mary Kay Andrews!
And I am definitely going to read Bliss soon!
