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 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:
This week has been a lovely week and also a little bit lazy so I’ve managed to pack in quite a few books and visit a few blogs. I’m making good progress and have started to backtrack with my own comments.
Books read this week:
I completed my blog tour book which will be posted on Tuesday. This is the latest Rachel Aaron book : The Last Stand of Mary Good Crow which I had a very good time with. Also, as planned, I completed the three books that I outlined last week plus an extra one: The third in the Stoker-Wilde series : Land of the Dead. I read and loved Sea of Tranquility by Emily St John Mandell. I picked up Elektra by Jennifer Saint which transported me back to a time of Trojan wars and Greek myth and finally I had an absolute blast with KC Jones Black Tide which is a dark and tentacled day at the beach. So, I have lots of reviews to post.
Next Week’s Reads:
Well, I have made good progress on the review books I’d got behind with. I do still have some catching up but I feel a bit more relaxed now I’ve made some inroads. This week I’m going to read some of my forthcoming review books for June and maybe still try and sneak in one of my books from the catch-up list.

Wow, you did read a lot. I have a long weekend and I’m hoping to finish Black Tide, which starts out very promising! So glad you loved Sea of Tranquility, and really looking forward to your review of the new Rachel Aaron😁
Sea of Tranquility was literally brilliant. I don’t know how ESJM does it – if I was to describe the book to someone right now I’m sure that I’d make a terrible job of making it sound good.
Lynn 😀
I’m so glad to hear Black Tide is good! Can’t wait to read that. And I’ve heard good things about Rachel Aaron too.
I hope you get a chance to pick them both up. Highly recommenced.
Lynn 😀
