It's Monday! What are you reading? (19)

It's Monday!  What Are You Reading?  Is hosted by Sheila at One Persons Journey Through a World of Books.  It's a fun meme where we gather to share what we've read last week and our reading plans for this week.
I haven't done this meme since the end of August and I figured this was a good week to do it since I didn't do an In My Mailbox (due to Christmas).  I do hope I can get back to doing this every week though.  It's a nice way to set up a reading plan of some sort.
Last week I read:
Lily of the Nile by Stephanie Dray (releases Jan 4, 2011)
Lily of the Nile 
Finding You by Kristen Kehoe (This is a YA contemporary and my review is HERE)
Finding You
The Book of Tomorrow by Cecelia Ahern (out Feb. 1, 2011)
The Book of Tomorrow: A Novel 
The Oracle of Stamboul by Michael David Lukas (out Feb. 1, 2011)
The Oracle of Stamboul: A Novel 

I'm currently reading:
Angelfire by Courtney Allison Moulton
Angelfire (Angelfire - Trilogy) 
I plan to read next:
The Fates Will Find Their Way by Hannah Pittard (out Feb 1, 2011)
The Fates Will Find Their Way: A Novel 
These Things Hidden by Heather Gudenkauf
These Things Hidden 
Zombie's VS. Unicorns anthology
Zombies vs. Unicorns
And I want to start the Harry Potter series in January so maybe I'll read the first one.
I have a ton of other books on my shelves that I want to read next as well, but it's hard to say where my mood will take me.
Reviews I posted last week:

What are you reading?  Feel free to link me!
Oh, and how many books have you read this year?  It's not a competition or anything, but I find it interesting to see how different it is for everyone.  Today I'm at 135 1/2 books for the year. I'm very satisfied with that number and I'm not sure I'll set it higher for next year.  I want to read more adult books next year, which is longer reading, so I may not read as many.
Also, if you haven't signed up yet it's not too late to sign up for the Reading Resolutions Giveaway Hop!

  4. You did great on the number of books you read last week + the number of books for the year. I was at a sad 20+ - but will definitely improve next year!

  8. Lily of the Nile looks great! I have The Book of Tomorrow on my review shelf; it also looks great; I hope you liked it. I am re-reading the Harry Potter series with Bebe Boy James (my third time through with one of my children; I'll probably end up going back through with the grandbebes one day). Enjoy all of your reads .. (Zombies v. Unicorns looks fun!)
