Sunday Post/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:

What a nuisance week.  In reading terms all has been good, but, my laptop is playing up.  Basically, some of the keys are sticking, in particular the spacebar, so when I’m typing reviews or trying to comment on other posts, or reply to comments, therearenospacesinanentiresentenceorparagraph (which is intensely annoying and means everything takes so much longer. To be fair, my laptop is old.  I think I’m going to have to buy a new one.  Deep joy. Anyway, my reading.   I completed Two SIdes To Every Murder by Danielle Valentine  which I really enjoyed, maybe not quite as much as Delicate Condition but I definitely had fun.  I picked up and tore through The Daughters’ War by Christopher Buehlman. I had high expectations for this and these were surpassed.  I loved it. I’ve also completed The Cautious Traveller’s Guide to the Wastelands by Sarah Brooks, which was good, but at the same time quite slow in terms of pacing.   I’ve read 25% of two of my SPFBO books and started my third.

Next Week’s Reads:

  1. Bitter Waters by Vivian Shaw
  2. We Used to Live Here by Marcus Kliewer

We’re back from Granada.  We had a fantastic time.  It’s a lovely city.   We had great weather, the people are so friendly and there was plenty of wine and tapas.  Highly recommended.  Obviously my reading and blogging have been a little slower so I’m planning on catching up this week, fingers crossed.  In reading news.  I read Bitter Waters by Vivian Shaw.  I also read We Used To Live Here by Marcus Kliewer (which was  very chilling) and I’ve made a start on Two SIdes To Every Murder by Danielle Valentine.  I’ve also made a start on my first batch of SPFBO books.

  1. Winter Lost by Patricia Briggs

I’m going on a short break, a few days away in Granada.  I have a few posts lined up and will be back on track on Wednesday.  This week I’ve read The Midnight Feast by Lucy Foley, which I loved.  I’ve also completed Winter Lost by Patricia Briggs and made a start on Bitter Waters by Vivian Shaw.  I’ve also made a start on my first SPFBO X book.  I was hoping to post my first five books this weekend but things have run away with me so later in the week I’ll be highlighting those.

This week seems to have flown by.  I can’t even pin down what I’ve been up to it all feels like a blur.  In reading, I completed Hell for Hire by Rachel Aaron.  I can see myself being very easily pulled into this world. I also read Elusive by Genevieve Cogman (the second in her Scarlet Revolution series).  This was good and it has left us with a clear direction for what comes next (assuming there are more books planned).  I’ve just started Hera by Jennifer Saint.

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.

  1. The House That Horror Built by Cherie Priest
  2. Cinderwich by Cherie Priest
  3. The Silence Factory by Bridget Collins
