Today I’m posting my Weekly Wrap Up and I’m linking up to The Sunday Post over at Kimberly’s Caffeinated Reviewer. Without further ado:
Weekly Update
The weather is still very rainy and blustery although to be fair we did have sunshine today. It’s the kind of weather that quickly turns your garden into a nightmare as everything grows for fun with this combination of wet and warm. Anyway. I’ve had another good reading and blogging week – long may it continue – I managed to complete The Storm by Rachel Hawkins, which was very good. I will be reviewing that in the next week. I also decided to pick up my Backlist Book – Traitor in the Ice by KJ Maitland. It was a strong addition to the series. Finally, I read A Forest Darkly by AG Slatter which I adored. Review tomorrow.



Next Week’s reads
I’ve already made a start on the latest Heather Fawcett book and so far I’m enjoying it and making good progress. I have an audio copy of Boudicca’s Daughter which I’m hoping to start and I’d then like to move on to another review book, I’m thinking next will be Temple Fall by RL Boyle.

I am curious to read your review of the new Slatter’s book!! And I hope to get started with Agnes Aubert’s.. soon! 🤞
I noticed two of my fruit trees have buds already, which is crazy! It’s warmed up here lately but will most likely get really cold again. Looks like you had a productive week😁
