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 so 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:

Well, this week has been a funny one.  Mainly made up of things going slightly wrong in my bookish universe.  Although nothing too dramatic just a few non starters and formatting issues. This week I read The Pale House Devil by Richard Kadrey which I’m really hoping could be the start of a new series.  I picked up Edenville but I failed to connect with it for some reason so I had to put it down for now.  I was also really keen to dive into Elizabeth Hand’s A Haunting on the Hill but when I opened it on my kindle the formatting was a bit mixed up andallthewordsrantogetherlikethis!  I did try to read it regardless but it was just too difficult.  I’ll buy it for kindle and review it at a later date.  I also picked up The Waking of Angantyr by Marie Brennan.  I’m about 35% into this one.  It’s very different and I’m enjoying it so far.  On the plus side I managed to post three reviews this week.

    Oh no, can’t believe the formatting issue with A Haunting on the Hill. I was looking forward to your thoughts on that one. Well done for trying though, I think I would have done the same 😀

      Yeah, it was giving me a headache. Such a disappointment but I’ll pick up a copy soon hopefully.

    I would love for The Pale House Devil to become a series too. Maybe with novels instead of novellas😁

    Sorry about your bad luck with Dnfing Edenville and then having the Haunting on the Hill with all those formatting issues. Hope Waking of Angantyr will be amazing!

      Yes, that’s just the way it goes sometimes. I was a bit disappointed about The Haunting though.
