It’s Monday! What Are You Reading?

It’s been an Ireland fest on the blog since we got home.

And, of course, Books:

Read

I finished Jasmine Nights by Julia Gregson late last night. I enjoyed the World War II time period and exotic settings. I’ll write a longer review later in the week.

Reading

I’ve started reading Food Fight: The Citizen’s Guide to the Next Food and Farm Bill by Daniel Imhoff, which was timely since the Senate passed their version last week.

I seem to have added a new reading habit recently — an e-book on my phone. My current selection is No Longer a Gentleman by Mary Jo Putney. I read in very short bursts on my phone so it has to be an easy or short book to work well for me.

Will Read

Next up is Miracle at St. Anna by James McBride — and I need to read it fast because we’re discussing it at Book Club on Thursday night. This is another World War II novel so I’m looking forward to that.

I’m carrying on the World War II theme by rewatching Foyle’s War.

Love the Ireland and Food theme! I don’t think I’ve read any books set in Ireland … yet.

Food Fight sounds very interesting. I am becoming more interested in the political and economic aspects of farming and food.

I need to see if my library has Food Fight. I currently have The American Way of Eating checked out. It’s due back this week so I really need to start reading it. I hope you enjoy the James McBride book. Happy reading!
