What's On My Nightstand

I'm a little late, but decided to try it out nonetheless...

"What's On My Nightstand" was a cool blog issued by 5Minutesforbooks.com, a sister site of 5minutesformoms.com...

Here are the rules:
You can participate in What's on Your Nightstand? in several ways. Choose what's appealing to you:
1. Take a picture or simply give a list of the stack of books that you are in the process of reading or planning to read (it might be on your nightstand, on a bookshelf, or like me, under your bed).
Give short reviews of the book or books that you read that month.


2. Tell about what you are reading and why. I love to read the backstory on books. Did someone give it to you? Are you trying out a new genre at the recommendation of a friend (or website)?


3. Did you stumble across a new author in a used bookstore?

4. Fill us in on your reading habits. When are you reading these books? Is one reserved for bedtime reading? Does one stay in your car to be read while you are waiting? Do you read just one book at a time?

I hope that you'll join us the last Tuesday of each month (the first one is a week from today, July 29). You will post on your on blog (or if you aren't a blogger, please participate in the comment section), link to our site, and then link to your post here at the Linky provided for that purpose, so that we can click through and find out what everyone else is reading.
So what's on my nightstand?? Several and they change often. lol... I have books every where, my night stand is just one place. Try livingroom by the couch, bookshelves in the dining room and I constantly carry at least 1 to 2 books with me when I come to work! lol... Sometimes reading both at the same time. lol...
I also joined up with the Classic Book reading also on 5minutebooks.com. This month is Pride & Prejudice. I just got my copy from the library and I'm ready to get started!!!

Hopefully you can read the titles on these. Not much light in the bedroom.
Pride & Prejudice - Just started
Persuasion - Will read after Pride & Prejudice
Pay It Down - Going back to the library, not what I thought it'd be..
Do This - Also going back to the library
One Month To Live - Been reading on and off...
You On A Diet - been following the program and keep by the bedside to refer too.
