Monthly Wrap Up/What’s on my Plate: November

I’m going to post a wrap up for the end of each month, mainly to help me to keep track of my reading and at the same time look at what I’m intending to read during the month ahead (inspired by Books Bones and Buffy’s What’s on My Plate.

October wasn’t a bad month.  I completed three SPFBO semi finalists and reviewed them all.  We also chose our finalist – which wasn’t easy because seriously, folks, some good books amongst these. This was my line up last month with an update of which books I’ve read – also obviously plus the 3 SPFBO.: 

I read and reviewed :The Pale House Devil by Richard Kadrey

The paleHouseDevil

I started Edenville by Sam Rebelein but it didn’t quite work for me atm so I’ve put it down for now.

Eden2

I read and reviewed The Waking of Angantyr by Marie Brennan

A Haunting in the Arctic by CJ Cooke – Unfortunately I haven’t managed to get to this one yet but will be intending to do so soon.

I read Red River Seven by AJ Ryan – I’ve not reviewed it yet but will be doing so shortly.  A pacy and entertaining read.

    That cover for Edenville!! I don’t think I could spend too long looking at it 😀
    Starling House sounds really good, it’s one I want to read too at some point soon.

      I’m reading Starling House now. It’s really well written, there’s a kind of beauty and the beast feel to it in certain areas and I am enjoying it – but, it seems to be taking me a while to get through which is puzzling.

    I can’t wait to read the Louisa Morgan and Constance Sayers, so many good things to check out this month😁

      The Constance Sayers was very good and well thought out. I’ll be reviewing it soon.

    You’ll be getting to A Haunting in the Arctic before me since it doesn’t releaes until next year in the US, though I do have an ARC. I look forward to your thoughts, Cooke is really good at writing atmosphere!

      Yes, that was my first thought – I’m really looking forward to an unsettling and atmospheric read.
