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:

This week I’ve had less time for reading and blogging – life ‘things’ keep getting in the way –  in particular the freezer going on the blink involving lots of running around cleaning up and cooking things that I wouldn’t otherwise have been cooking plus overall very bad weather and storms and wind blowing things into places they shouldn’t be.  Still, I managed to  complete The Classified Dossier – Sherlock Holmes and Dorian Gray by Christian Klavier.  I then went off track slightly and picked up Murder Road by Simone St James which I loved and in fact have already reviewed. Finally I picked up Oracle by Thomas Olde Heuvelt.  I was hoping to complete this by the end of the day but I’ve been side tracked again so probably one to complete next week now.

Complete Oracle by Thomas Olde Heuvelt.  I then have one final review book for March, Play of Shadows by Sebastien de Castell.  After that I’m going to see if I can complete the rest of my SPFBO finalists.  I’m also hoping to provide an update next week followed by reviews – one to be posted every few days (once I’ve drawn up my schedule).

Reviews Posted:

I’m a little bit behind (story of my life so it seems).  We’ve been away for a week to the beautiful city of Madrid.  We had a fantastic time there amongst all the hustle and bustle.  It’s a very friendly city, great tapas, delicious wine, plenty to see and do.  I highly recommend it.  I have managed a few reads which is good but I’m behind with reviews (obviously I wasn’t writing these up on holiday – I’m such a slacker!) so now I have to give my head a wobble and schedule a few in this week to try and catch up.  I’ve also not been blog hopping or responding to comments so I’ll be getting back on track with that also.  In reading news I’ve managed to complete three of my review books.  I went off schedule a little.  I started with The Trials of Empire by Richard Swan which was an excellent conclusion to the series – lots of action and horror in this grand finale.  I then picked up AG Slatter’s The Briar Book of the Dead which is just wonderful.  I’m loving her work and so I went into the read with high expectations and I’m pleased to say these were easily met with this deliciously witchy tale.  I then picked up T Kingfisher’s What Feasts at Night which was a very quick read.   My next read will be another of my SPFBO finalists, I’m hoping to fit two in this month to keep me on track.

This week I’ve been away for a few days and in fact I’m still away.  So, I’ve had a few posts scheduled but not written many reviews or done much blog hopping or chatting with everyone.  Next week, hopefully, normal service will be resumed.  This week I managed to stay on track. I’ve read Only If You’re Lucky by Stacy Willingham and Everyone Who Can Forgive Me Is Dead by Jenny Hollander and enjoyed both of these titles – my only regret is reading one on the back of the other – because they’re both mysteries that flit back and forth between the ‘then’ and the ‘now’.

This past week, I’ve still been quite busy with friends and family so slightly less reading time.  I have managed to start my reviews and will be trying to catch up some more this week also.  I finished Emily Wilde’s Map of the Otherlands by Heather Fawcett and I picked up Miss Austen Investigates, the Hapless Milliner by Jessica Bull and I’m about a third of the way into this one.

What a crazy and hectic week this has been.  There’s been lots going on and on top of that in the last few days we’ve all fallen prey to the dreaded lurgy.  I think the Grinch has stolen Christmas for us – but, it matters not, we’ll just put a slight delay on things.  Hope everyone else is keeping well?  My listening to Empire of the Vampire by Jay Kristoff (about 7 hours left) has not progressed this week – mainly because I’ve been ill.  I did manage to complete my first SPFBO finalist and I’ve made a great start on Voyage of the Damned by Frances White – what a fantastic story this is so far, I’m absolutely loving it and can’t wait to pick it back up – 30% in so far.  Seriously, loving it.
