Books read this week:
This has been another busy week. We’re still coming to terms with our language lessons that are having quite a big impact on how much free time we have. That being said this hasn’t been a bad week for reading although I have quite a few reviews to catch up with now plus I need to answer some comments and check out what you’ve all been up to. So, books. This week I read The Witching by CJ Cooke which I really enjoyed. I really like this author. I also read Run by Blake Couch – this is an unusual concept and I’m still thinking about it. It was certainly gripping with no end of tension. I’m also pleased to say that phase 1 of SPFBO is complete and the ten finalists are now chosen. Check here for more information.
Next Week’s Reads:
I’ve already started You All Die Tonight by Simon Kernick which will be followed by Ink Ribbon Red by Alex Pavesi. If I can make my way through these I’m hoping to pick up one of my October reads and The Fury of the Gods by John Gwynne is really calling to me. Probably not a good idea to make too firm plans and just go with the flow though.

That’s it for me this week, what have you been up to, any good books to shout out about. Let me know.
Books and travelling with Lynn 
I’m curious to compare notes on Run. I thought it was a lot of stressful fun but not my favorite of his books.
I enjoyed it. It was tense and fast paced and actually, as I’ve not read his other books I wasn’t comparing it to those – in fact it would be good to pick up the books I do have of his and see how they compare now.
Lynn 😀
I’ve just bought a copy of Hear Him Calling so look forward to reading your review. It sounds really spooky 😀
It was definitely spooky.
