Today I’m posting my Weekly Wrap Up and II’m linking up to The Sunday Post over at Kimberly’s  Caffeinated Reviewer.  Without further ado:

Books read this week:

Slowly but surely I’m catching up with my blogging and reviewing.  This past week I posted five reviews and I might have another intense week going forward which should then put me back on track.  In terms of reading I finished The Seventh Veil of Salome by Silvia Moreno Garcia.  It’s not my favourite book by the author but that’s more an issue of personal taste because the writing is really good (I wasn’t absolutely in love with the storyline but I think others will be).   I read Death at the Sign of the Rook by Kate  Atkinson, this is really good for lovers of cosy mystery, I had a good time with it, it perhaps wasn’t quite what I was expecting in some respects but it has good characters and a great sense of humour.  I also started Long Live Evil by Sarah Rees Brennan – which I’m enjoying, about 40% into the story so far.  Unfortunately I’ve had to set aside one of my review books as it wasn’t quite working for me.  The Girl With No Reflection by Keshe Chow.  This gets off to a really good start, with good world building and some very creepy early scenes but then we run into an instalove situation that just didnt work for me but to be fair that’s one of my pet gripes and really I’m not the target audience so don’t be put off by my grumps.  In SPFBO news I’ve completed my final batch of five books (reading the first 25%).  I shall be posting soon about the books that will be cut and those that I’m going to read fully with a view to choosing SFs.
