It's Monday! What are you reading?

It's Monday! What Are You Reading? is a weekly meme hosted by Sheila @ Book Journey where you can share what you are reading each week. Be sure to visit Book Journey to link up if want to join in! 

I am well and truly back into the swing of things at work, hence the lack of reading and posts! :( No worry though, this week I am aiming to make up for it. 

I am going to put Cutting for Stone down and come back to it later - only because I find it hard to read two pretty heavily themed books at the one time as I am also still reading All That I Am by Anna Funder. Instead of Cutting For Stone, I'm going to read The Weed that Strings the Hangman's Bag because I have been hanging out to read some more Flavia!!! If you haven't read any of the Flavia de Luce series, then you should!! lol :)

    I'm with you on not wanting to read too many heavily-themed books at the same time. I haven't read anything by Alan Bradley, yet, but his books look tempting.

    Happy reading this week!! The cover for "The Weed" reminds me of a Tim Burton movie for some reason. :)

    What a strange title -- and interesting cover! I love it when series get under my skin and make me want to read more titles.

    That title is a tongue twister. I like it. Would like to read the book.

The Friday 56

The Friday 56 is hosted by Freda over at Freda's Voice . The rules are simple: *Grab a book, any book. *Turn to page 56. *Find any sentence that grabs you. (I cheat sometimes and put a little more than a sentence!) *Post it. *Add your post URL to the Link. This week The Friday 56 is taken from The Immortal Life of Henrietta Lacks by Rebecca Skloot which is absolutely amazing so far! "The normal cells which make up our bodies are tiny objects, five thousand of which would fit on the head of a pin," he said, his voice a bit too loud and stilted. "How the normal cells become cancerous is still a mystery."

Yazmina , he thought, look at her tonight . She is like the sun in that dazzling dress, with her hair showing under her scarf...

Plus, as you all know, I do love beautiful cover art! I am really excited to start this book today so my teaser comes from the kindle  edition at 3% p.12: " And as the rain trickled down the windowpanes, Vanessa performed, letting all of the grief pour out of her...
