It’s here!
I can’t tell you how excited your enthusiasm for this new monthly carnival has made me. I think it will be a blast to read around and see what is on everyone’s nightstand: in progress, coming up soon, almost finished. . . .
The guidelines are simple:
- Write a post on your own blog (or feel free to play along in the comments if you don’t have a blog).
- You can simply post a picture, or tell us how and when these books got into your to-be-read pile, or give a mini-review of the books in progress.
- Link up to this post (please use the permalink that will take us directly to that post, not the main page of your blog).
- Read around through the links and find out “What’s on Their Nightstand?”
If you’ve followed someone else’s post over here, and it’s past Tuesday, feel free to go ahead and link up. There’s no deadline.
Come back on fourth Tuesday of next month, August 26, to do it again!

This should be great fun, to see what everyone else is reading. Not that I need to add to my ‘to be read’ list!
Trish says
Whew, I feel better! I used this link-up to clear off all the books that have been sitting around waiting for me to mention them to someone else. 🙂
Nancy says
I’ve been waiting all week for this!
My goal for next month is clear off some of the pile.
Lisa (Morning Rose) says
Great meme! It’s fun to see what everyone is reading. I wrote about the Randy Alcorn books I’ve read and am currently reading.
Iva says
There were so many choices! I’ll be sure to have a good non-fiction review completed by the next WOYN!
Alexis says
I am so excited about this carnival! Thanks!
nicole says
I love this. One more resoure for book ideas is great.
Jen E says
Well I went a bit off the deep end, but I’m up and posted: Alanna the First Adventure by Tamora Pierce, Deja Dead by Kathy Reichs and Family Tree by Barbara Delinksy is the short answer. 🙂
Rachel says

This really is a fun idea. I’ve read everyone’s comments and blogs. It was fun to see some of those nightstands.
Katy Lin says
my to-read-list grows every day, i think and i can’t seem to get through the ones i’ve started! i’ll have to post later this evening! i’ve got a lot to say, lol!
Jennifer Bogart says
This was fun, but I didn’t get links in to the books, just too many! 🙂
Sondra Santos LaBrie says
I’ve added myself to the list as well as posting a link back to your site. I’m also adding this to our blogroll.
Jane says
What a great idea Jennifer! I just discovered this blog today! I’m looking forward to having a peak at what others have on their nightstands! 🙂
Brittanie says
I love seeing what other people are reading. 🙂

“I read. A lot. And then I make lists of books I want to read. A lot. And I read most of the ones I end up getting quickly…most of the time. I find that I read fiction 50 times faster than non-fiction…”
Doll Clothes Gal says
This will be a really fun site – I’m looking forward to reading more.
Latte Mommy says
Just discovered this site today, but I can assure you that I will be back for more. I love books, am an avid reader of books of many different kinds, and I love to get recommendations from new sources! I don’t blog about books much, but I think your carnival will become a monthly “must do” for my blog.
So delighted to find you and participate in the first ever “What’s on Your Nightstand?”!
Eile says
Hi, I am very glad that you started this. I am looking forward to learning all about new books and sharing my thoughts as well.

You know I love talking books! So my carnival post is up with my current reads.
Rachel Langston says
VERY shortly after I got home from the library with my “substitute” books, I got a message saying the ones I reserved were ready.
I like the reserved ones better!
Marianne Thomas says
What a fun idea! I’ll definitely be back next month, too!
Will be back to cruise everyone else’s nightstands!
dana says
Love this idea, anything to spark a conversation about a book! Thanks.
Gwen says
Such a great idea!
Yasmin says
I love this…I participate in a Thursday meme (Thursday 13) but it’s not tailored to books…my first love after God, hubby and kids…lol. Thanks so much for coming up with this idea and I’m looking forward to participating.

This is a fun idea and I just puy a picture of mine up. Looking forward to go check what everyone else had on their nightstand.

For some reason, my laptop does not like Mr Linky widgets, but it does OK with the regular Mr Linky. I am signing up for What’s On Your Nightstand. Judy

I am interested in this “activity”, for lack of a better word. I know that you have others, too, but I just can’t find them. Judy
