Monday Round Up (02.21.11)
These were my 5 most listened to tunes from the last week:
1. Invented by Jimmy Eat World (was perfect for Valentine’s Day: “You’re always in my head/You’re just what I wanted/I live in constant debt/To feel you invented”)
2. Soul Meets Body by Death Cab For Cutie
3. Overdue by The Get Up Kids
4. I Am Always The One Who Calls by Pedro The Lion
5. Ageless Beauty by Stars
“It’s Monday What Are You Reading” is a weekly event hosted by Sheila that lets you share books you’ve read over the past week and books you have coming up.

Currently Reading: Jane Eyre by Charlotte Bronte (rereading for Amy’s read-a-long, which is just starting)
Up next: After the first 10 chapters of Jane Eyre I’ll probably pick something quick off the TBR shelf.
What are you reading and listening to? Did any new books find their way into your possession?
I haven’t read Jane Eyre in a while.

I must confess I could not imagine reading Jane Eyre. Highschool English turned me off Eyre and Bronte.
I loved Jane Eyre! I can re-read it multiple times :)
The Book Thief is a wonderful book.
Oh a do adore Jane Eyre maybe i need to reread it again. Have a delightful week. My Monday: http://www.rundpinne.com/2011/02/its-monday-what-are-you-reading-27.html
I love the “Top Tunes”, really such a fun idea!
I’ve only heard good things about Anna and the French Kiss so I’ll be interested to hear what you thought of it.
Have a fabulous reading week and if you get a second stop by There’s A Book! :)
Love the Jimmy Eat World song! Have a super week ALita – enjoy the books and the read a long ;)
I am one of those people that really hated Jane Eyre – I only read it after reading Wide Sargasso Sea as achild and that book is still a favourite of mine but not Jane Eyre..
Thanks for the heads up on the read along, I just might drag my copy out and slowly make my way through it.
I might appreciate it more now as an adult..
Happy reading week..
:)
I loved the Book Thief, may have to revisit it some time. Thanks for visiting my blog!
I am trying to dent my TBR shelf this week too.

I’ve read The Book Thief before and I can say it’s a wonderful book, and I’m sure you’ll enjoy it. Happy reading!
Here’s what I’m reading.
It has been many years since I read Jane Eyre…I would love to reread it and see how I feel about it these days. Enjoy your reading, and thanks for visiting my blog.
I’m going to have to read the read-along posts on Jane E–I can’t imagine wanting to read it.
The Jane Eyre books is my favorite from Charlotte Bronte. Villette and Shiley are must-read from her as well. :)
I haven’t read Jane Eyre…I really need to pick it up one of these days!
