Booking Ahead/Weekly Wrap Up

Sunday Post

I’m trying to get back into the habit of doing a round-up of the week just completed and also take a look at my plans for the forthcoming week.  I rather got out of the habit of doing this last year but I would like to reinstate this type of post as I feel it keeps me on track.  So, I’m linking up to The Sunday Post over at Kimberly’s  Caffeinated Reviewer.  Without further ado:

Past two weeks:

I missed last week’s wrap up post so I’ll post two week’s worth today. Surprisingly, given the last week I had I’ve been reading quite a bit – I find that concentrating on a book takes my mind off other things.  I do need to catch up with blog hopping and comments though because all of that has gone straight to hell in a handcart.  I’ve finished my buddy read of a Darker Shade of Magic this past week.  I can’t deny I didn’t love this as much as I hoped and my review will be up soon.  I’ve also made a start on the first Discworld book that I’m also buddy reading. Early days but just up to chapter 4.  I also read Mirrorland by Carole Johnstone, The Two Faced Queen by Nick Martell, Ariadne by Jennifer Saint, Last Memoria by Rachel Emma Shaw and started The Light of the Midnight Stars by Rena Rossner.

Next Week

Hoping to complete The Light of the Midnight Stars.  Possibly one of my two remaining SPFBO finalists and The Girl and the Mountain by Mark Lawrence.

    It is good to hear from you, Lynn and that you have been able to continue reading through what appears to have been a couple of difficult weeks. I look forward to hearing more about how your getting on with your first Discworld read. Take care and happy reading in the coming week. 🙂

    I’m really curious to see what you thought of Mirrorland. I’m hoping to read it this week😁 And oh bummer that you didn’t like A Darker Shade of magic😬

    I think A Darker Shade of Magic is on my TBR, so I’m excited to see that you think of it

    I’m about to finish Mirrorland tonight, and maybe have my review up later in the week. Can’t wait to compare notes 🙂

    I really hope you are starting to feel a bit better Lynn and I am glad books have been a comfort for you during these past couple of weeks. Sending lots of hugs! I finished mirrorland last week too and loved it! Curious to see what you made of it as it was a very unusual book!

    I hope things are better for you now, Lynn. Glad to see you back online. And I am itching to get my hands on Ariadne, so I am really hoping you liked it! ~Lex
