It’s Monday! What Are You Reading? is hosted by Sheila at Book Journey. She’s taking a bit of personal leave so I’m also linking to Kimberly at Caffeinated Book Reviewer.
Our dreadful heat finally broke this weekend. It’s been beautiful and right around 80 degrees, which is perfect for me! My husband and I spent most of the afternoon out in the hammock, reading and napping. What a perfect day.
Last night we went to our local community theater to see The Great American Trailer Park Musical. Oh my goodness, we laughed ’til we hurt! If it’s ever onstage anywhere near you, go check it out!

The Ambrose book sounds really good! And that musical sounds hysterical!

Have a great week.

I am reading Eleven Pipers Piping and it is good. The second in a series. Hot temps=pool time in FL.
I enjoyed the weekend as well. Sounds like you got a lot of reading done.
The Last Time I Saw Paris looks good. Hammocks and reading..sounds lovely. We went to a water park today and had a blast. Enjoy your week!
We're right around 80, I can handle that but when it gets muggy- no thanks! Your afternoon sounds great, can't think of a much better way to spend some time. 🙂
I love community production, just the name of that one sound good. And LAst Time I Saw PAris looks good.
Lots of new books this week:) I love our local theatre. It's small and cozy and they do a lot of fun plays. It's been muggy and wet here. Not good for anything but swimming and running inside afterwards. LOL

Have a great week,

Love the Pink Carnation series! Hope you get more of those hammock reading days! The kids will be coming over for the fourth.
Reading in a hammock sounds lovely….and so does 80 degree temp. Ours is still over 100.
I am curious about that book about the 100-year-old man, etc. Sounds fascinating.
Thanks for visiting my blog, and enjoy your week.
