It’s Monday! What Are You Reading? From Picture Books to YA! 

It's Monday! What are you Reading? is a weekly blog hop I co-host with Kellee and Ricki from Unleashing Readers. The original IMWAYR, with an adult literature focus, was started by Sheila at Book Journeys and is now hosted by Kathryn at The Book Date.

It's a great way to share what you're reading and get recommendations. We encourage you to write your own post sharing what you’re reading, link up below, leave a comment, and support other IMWAYR bloggers by visiting and commenting on at least three of the other linked blogs.

Last Week's Adventures:

I finished listening to Hands by Torrey Maldonado. I especially liked reading the notes at the end and hearing his intentions in terms of the topic and style for this book. I started listening to Scritch Scratch by Lindsay Currie — I love that it’s a Chicago story!

This Week's Adventures:

I’ll continue listening to Scritch Scratch and plan to finish this week. I’m still reading I Am Diosa and I am going to UIC’s Super Saturday this weekend and will hear Samira Ahmed speak so I’d like to read Hollow Fires this week.

Last Week's Adventures:

Last week I finished reading The Big Leap and then I finished Promises of Gold by Jose Olivarez. It was so good. So good. I listened to some of Hands by Torrey Maldonado.

This Week's Adventures:

I’d like to finish listening to Hands and then my hold of The Body Keeps the Score just came in and I’m also reading I Am Diosa. I’m behind on my kidlit reading…something about getting through January and February in Chicago has meant more for-me adult texts.

Last Week's Adventures:

I finished listening to Unplug and started listening to Hands by Torrey Maldonado. I love that he has a new book out! I also started reading Promises of Gold by Jose Olivarez and am so close to finishing The Big Leap.

This Week's Adventures:

I’ll be listening to Hands this week and I’ll finish The Big Leap and continue with Promises of Gold. 8th grade students turned in their Mock Caldecott essays and they are so great! I’m looking forward to reading the 6th grade essays that are due this week.

Last Week's Adventures:

This week I zoned in on rereading The Big Leap by Gay Hendricks. I also listened to more of Unplug.

This Week's Adventures:

My plan is to finish my reread of The Big Leap this week and to listen to Torrey Maldonado’s new book Hands. I am in an empowerment phase with my reading after signing up for La Poderistas Book Club and discovering a book called La Diosa. This week I’m also attending an event at the Poetry Foundation in Chicago and I’m looking forward to hearing poets live and exploring their books.
