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:
This week has been a bit less of a blogging and reading week. I’m still listening to Infinity Gate by MR Carey, I’m struggling a bit with this one but I want to persevere. I completed another SPFBO finalist and I’ve also read Maude Horton’s Glorious Revenge. I also managed to squeeze in three reviews.

Woah people, I’ve been on a mission this week. I’ve been working hard and been using the opportunity to listen to some audio – this has gone really well. I completed Relight My Fire by CK McDonnell which I confess – was brilliant. I also completed the audio version of September House – another great read, seriously. So, on top of that – and get ready for this because I’ve surprised myself – I listened to two further audio books, The Heiress by Rachel Hawkins and also What Moves the Dead by T Kingfisher which is a reimagining of Poe’s House of Usher, what can I say, they were both great so I was always keen to get back on board. And, I read another of my SPFBO books. Phew. I don’t know what came over me. I’ve posted a couple of reviews this week but think I’ll have to step it up next week to catch up a bit. I’ve also started a new audio book – Infinity gate by MR Carey, I love this author, but, I’m not going to lie, this feels very hard sci-fi at the moment so I don’t know whether we’re going to be compatible or not. I’ve also picked up another SPFBO book – hoping to tuck two under my belt this month.
Next Week’s Reads:
Complete my current SPFBO book and also, fingers crossed, Infinity Gate, then maybe one of my February review books.

I’ve had a good week in reading this past week. I completed Miss Austen Investigates, the Hapless Milliner by Jessica Bull, I then picked up and pretty much breezed through The City of Stardust by Georgia Summers and I’ve made a start on Relight My Fire by CK McDonnell. I’m only about 10% into this one at the moment but I’m loving it already and feel totally committed – this will be a quick read. I’ve also started the audio for September House and this is going really well – now this is what you call a haunted house! Of course, the more you read the further you seem to get behind with actual reviews – I have posted a couple of reviews this week but I might have to step that up to three a week to catch up. In SPFBO news I will be starting my second book this week.
Next Week’s Reads:
My aim this coming week is to complete Relight My Fire – which is the last of my January review books and means I can make a start on my February line up. I imagine I’ll soon wrap up September House too. I’m then not going to pin myself down too much but choose from the three titles below. I also have an audio copy for Rachel Hawkins The Heiress which I hope to start soon.

Happy New Year’s Eve everyone. Today was the last day of my Countdown to 2024 in which I posted a book that I’m really keen to pick up in 2024. In terms of reading. I think (I hope) to complete my audio version of Jay Kristoff’s Empire of the Vampire. I also completed Voyage of the Damned which was really good. On top of that I picked up and practically dashed through Black Sheep by Rachel Harrison (so good) and I’ve made a great start on Emily Wilde’s Map of the Otherlands by Heather Fawcett (which is also so far excellent). I do have a few reviews to catch up with so will be making a start on them as soon as I’ve posted my ‘Best Of’ list and my Good Intentions Book Tag. I will also be posting a SPFBO update soon.
