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:
Wow, is this another late post. Why, yes, yes it is. What is wrong with me! Anyway I’ll make this short and sweet. As per my plans last week I have started The First Binding, it’s a night time read and I think it’s a long book so this could take a while but so far so good. I’ve also started to listen to Babel by RF Kuang and again, I think this will be a long read and, although I’m less than 10% in I would say that this is an ode to words. I’ve also started All of Our Demise by Christine Herman and Amanda Foody. Quite unplanned I also read and had a lot of fun with Liar of Red Valley by Walter Goodwater.
Next Week’s Reads:
Well, I need to complete The First Binding by RR Virdi,All of Our Demise by Christine Herman and Amanda Foody and Babel by RF Kuang, but I recognise that these might be slightly longer books so at the same time I might try and pick up Ithaca by Claire North or Signal to Noise by Silvia Morena Garcia.

Liar of Red Valley by Walter Goodwater
You’ve picked two really long books to read together, hopefully they’ll both be good! Very curious to see what you make of Babel😁
Many of your current reads are on my TBR. I’ve been curious about “Small Angels,” and I’m looking forward to reading your thoughts about the book.
Looking forward to your review of Babel. Seems like everyone is reading it right now. But I still need friends to push me to read it
I’m reading Babel right now. I’m really enjoying it, but there are some passages that make me feel a little lost. I hope that clears up before the end of the book.
BEen hearing some great things about Babel, will need to get to that one stat.
