Booking Ahead/Weekly Wrap Up

Sunday Post

I’m trying to get back into the habit of doing a round-up of the week just completed and also take a look at my plans for the forthcoming week.  I rather got out of the habit of doing so but I would like to reinstate this type of post as I feel it keeps me on track.  So, I’m linking up to The Sunday Post over at Kimberly’s  Caffeinated Reviewer.  Without further ado:

Books read this week:

So, update on the stomach bug.  Still not 100% unfortunately but I’m a lot better than I was so at least I seem to be on the mend. In terms of reading this week.  I read Scarlet by Genevieve Cogman, this is the first in the Scarlet Revolution series and is one of my Beat the Backlist books from last year.  I enjoyed this, it was light and charming and a good start to series.  I have number two waiting to be read and hopefully will make a start this week.  I also picked up and completed Cinderwich by Cherie Priest which I really liked and already reviewed (link below).  Finally I picked up Moonstone by Laura Purcell.  This is Purcell’s foray into YA.  I enjoyed the writing for this one and it is packed with the author’s trademark gothic style but I didn’t love it as much as her adult books.  Finally, I’ve made a good start on Hell for Hire by Rachel Aaron which is shaping up into what I hope will become a new UF that I love.
