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
Well, the weather has cooled down a little which is a bit more comfortable. The house was like an oven for the past week even with all the doors and windows open and with the ceiling fans on. We’re off on our travels again in a few days. I’m hoping to write up a few reviews beforehand that will drop whilst we’re away – that’s the plan at least. I went off at a tangent with my reading this past week and didn’t stick to the plan at all. I did start listening to This Blade of Ours by Shalini Abeysekara but I wouldn’t say it’s gripping me so far, hopefully that improves. I read The Winter Folk by Jen Julian which I really enjoyed and I’ve now picked up The Witch Below the Dreaming Wood by HG Parry. I’m about a quarter of the way in with this one and, to be honest, I’m already hooked, I can’t wait to settle down later and tuck in again.
Next Week’s Reads
Hopefully complete This Blade of Ours by Shalini Abeysekara and The Witch Below the Dreaming Wood by HG Parry. Then I’d like to pick up The Eye of Leviathan by M. A. Carrick .

Books and travelling with Lynn 
Have fun on your trip! I have way too many review books this month and my head is spinning with what to read next. Sigh. Glad you loved The Winter Folk, maybe I’ll try it next.
Yes, I think I had a funny turn because I also seem to have a lot of books for this month and August and September. I am going to try my best to keep on top of them all though because there are such a lot of great books coming out. I can’t get my head around it tbh.
Lynn 😀
Glad it has cooled down for you! We’ve been suffering in the heat, too! 🥵 I hope you enjoy your upcoming reading and your trip away! 😊
Thanks, I hope you have a great week and the weather cools down for you too.
Lynn 😀
Hope the traveling won’t be too exhausting, Lynn! Stay safe and far away from all the heat! Happy reading!
Thanks, the travel was fine and the weather too.
Lynn 😀
Yay so glad to hear you’re already hooked on The Witch Below The Dreaming Wood I’m going to make a major effort to get my next ARC and a couple of library titles read over the next week or so then get on and put myself in the library queue for that one. I hope you have a wonderful time on your travels and am glad to hear that its cooled down where you are. Here we still seem to be stuck in a furnace 🥵
Good luck with your next reads and your library queue.
Lynn 😀
Thank you 🥰🥰
