Books read this week:
This week has been good in terms of reading – unfortunately, I seem to have caught a cold which is quite unpleasant but hopefully I’ll shake it off soon. I’ve been doing some catching up, visiting all your lovely blogs to see what I’ve missed and also responding to comments. I’ve posted two reviews this week and I probably need to post three more next week. I also need to make a start on reviewing my SPFBO books and I’m hoping to squeeze in one more title before the end of February. In books – I completed Emily Wilde’s Compendium of Lost Tales by Heather Fawcett. I’ve loved this series and this was a very satisfying conclusion (at least I think it’s the conclusion). I’ll be posting a review next week. I also read, and already reviewed, Wooing the Witch Queen by Stephanie Burgis. This was a lovely romantasy, cosy with low stakes. Check out my review here. I then picked up Black Woods, Blue Sky by Eowyn Ivey, this is quite a sad read, or at least that’s how I felt about it. Beautifully written and very atmospheric. Finally, I picked up Greenteeth by Molly O’Neill, which I’m absolutely loving and can’t wait to dive back into.
Finish Greenteeth and then I’d like to try and fit in one more review book and maybe another SPFBO finalist (perhaps one of the shorter books – there are some very chunky finalists this year).

That’s it for me this week, what have you been up to, any good books to shout out about. Let me know.




I hope you feel better soon. I can’t believe it’s the end of the month and I have SO many March review books to read!
I know, I can’t believe how quickly this year is going.

Hello Lynn, I hope you are feeling better 🙏 I am currently enjoying a comforting re-read of The Secret Garden by Frances Hodgson Burnett, with the hope of spring around the corner! 😊
Blessings, Jessica 💌
I am feeling better thanks.
Ahh, the Secret Garden – such a lovely book.

Lots of viruses and illnesses flying around. Take care of yourself!
Thanks – I’m over it now but you’re right – it’s the season for bugs.
