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 this last year 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:

Last week:

Another slow week –  in terms of reading and blogging (hectic in other ways) – but, although I’ve only completed one book this week it was such a good book that it has me on a book high at the moment.  I picked up Feral Creatures by Kira Jane Buxton and it was absolutely brilliant.  Better than the first imo – which I don’t see how it’s even possible but there we go.  I actually cried.  And the writing – wow.  Review to follow very soon.  I’ve also been continuing with The Empire’s Ruin which is also an amazing book, I’m about 75% in so should finish that this week.   I will also be completing my third SPFBO book – which does put me a little behind, to be honest I was hoping to do some reading this weekend but after a trip to the dentist my past three days have been all about the migraines! Not very pleasant and definitely no good for reading.

I need to finish my current SPFBO book and pick up the fourth in the batch.  I will be primarily concentrating on these for the next few days so that I can put together my update post.

Last week:

Another week of naff internet and a post a day late – my life at the moment!.  My blog looks like I’ve gone on holiday.  I’m not responding to comments or blog hopping and in fact this post is a day late!  I keep being given reassurances that things are in motion – but basically, they lie!!  I’m beginning to have a general feeling of being ‘fobbed off’.  Oh well, worse things happen.  I’ve not read much this week because I’ve been busy with other life things.  I did manage to complete Paper and Blood by Kevin Hearne – I think Iron Druid fans can also prepare to be happy with this one  I’ve also continued with Empire’s Ruin.  I feel like this is taking me a long time to get through and yet this isn’t a reflection of my enjoyment.  It seems a much chunkier book than I realised.  I absolutely love the characters.  I shall continue with this this forthcoming week but also pick up a couple of others.

Continue with Empire’s Ruin by Brian Staveley – I will finish this even if it feels like it’s turning into a saga.  I’d also like to pick up Mrs Rochester’s Ghost by Lindsay Marcott and perhaps the Maleficent Seven by Cameron Johnston. What you all reading this week ??

I managed to read a little bit more this week plus together with posting three book reviews so I did catch up a little.  I’ve failed miserably with my buddy reads this month so I need to press on with those but at the moment I’m focusing on my SPFBO reads.  I’m still reading Empire’s Ruin by Brian Staveley.  To be honest I’m loving this one but just taking my time.  Definitely a book to be savoured.  I went off plan a little and read Come With Me by Ronald Malfi which was absolutely excellent.  I also read two of my SPFBO books – I completed Stone Magus by Stephanie C Marks and also picked up and finished Book of Secrets by Claudia Blood.

Continue with Empire’s Ruin by Brian Staveley plus finish my final SPFBO read for this month.
