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:

Books read this week:

I’ve had a lovely week.  Good weather and good company.  I’ve finished reading at least the first 30% of my third batch of SPFBO books and so I’m now ready to make some decisions about which books I intend to continue reading.  Hopefully I will post a couple of updates soon, unfortunately, both these posts will involve cuts which is always unpleasant but it’s the nature of the competition and in happier news I’ve a number of books to carry forward that I’m very much enjoying, so, more news about those books soon too.  This week I read and was absolutely bowled over by Daisy Darker by Alice Feeney.  Short spoiler prior to review –  brilliant.  I seriously think this is one of my favourite books read so far this year.

Next Week’s Reads:

Next week I need to continue with my catch up of review books.  My reading has definitely slowed down at the moment which is more to do with the time of year and increased socialising than the lack of desire to read or the quality of the books.  So, this week I’d really like to pick up The Retreat by Sarah Pearse and Priest of Crowns by Peter McLean.
