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 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:
Well this week hasn’t gone wonderfully well although I have been catching up with blog hopping and comments which has been great, I love seeing all the posts I’ve missed and catching up although I still have some more backtracking to do. So, why hasn’t this week gone well? Last week I started City of Dusk and although I had made a good start it still took me all week and most of yesterday to complete it (hence this post being late because I was absolutely determined to start the week with a new book). Unfortunately City of Dusk didn’t really work it’s magic for me which is a shame as I loved the concept. My review will follow shortly. As a result I didn’t manage to start my next SPFBO finalist so that will be my next endeavour.
Books read this week:
The City of Dusk by Tara Sim.
I will be reading one of my SPFBO finalists and also hoping to pick up Insomnia by Sarah Pinborough.
- Last Exit by Max Gladstone

This week I’ve been trying to push on with my reading. I did finish Last Exit by Max Gladstone and by the time this post goes live I also expect to have completed another of my SPFBO finalists. Hopefully reviews up soon. I have had a rather full week and haven’t managed to catch up with things the way I’d have liked but I’ve made a start blog hopping and hope to get back on trace and uptodate with reviews this week.
Books read this week:
1 x SPFBO book
Next Week’s Reads:
I have another SPFBO finalist lined up and also I’ve made a start on The City of Dusk by Tara Sim.
- Sundial by Catriona Ward

Last week I mentioned that I was pressing on with my SPFBO finalists and those plans managed to stay on track. I completed the book I was reading and also managed to fit in another SPFBO book which means I’m now at the halfway point. In review books I read The Paris Apartment by Lucy Foley which I really enjoyed and already reviewed earlier this week. I also read Gallant by VE Schwab and my review for that one shall be posted soon. I do have some catching up to do. I’ve not been responding to comments and I’ve not been keeping up with my buddy read or blog hopping – I thought I had to push on with my SPFBO and make some headway and also I can’t deny that recent ‘world events’ have definitely had a very negative impact. I won’t go into that on here though.
Books read this week:
Next Week’s Reads:
I shall of course be starting another SPFBO book. I’ve started Sundial by Catriona Ward and I’m also hoping to pick up Last Exit by Max Gladstone.
- The Hemlock Cure by Joanne Burn
- The Paris Apartment by Lucy Foley

Gallant by VE Schwab

So this week I’ve been continuing with my SPFBO book which I’m hoping to finish soon so I can perhaps squeeze another of the finalists in before the end of February – this would put me at the halfway point. I also finished The Justice of Kings which I had a very good time with, I read The Hemlock Cure by Joanne Burn and I picked up The Paris Apartment by Lucy Foley which I’ve almost completed.
Books read this week:
Next Week’s Reads:
Complete The Paris Apartment and another SPFBO book. I also want to read the next chapters of my buddy read which I fell behind with this past week. Then I’m hoping to start Gallant by VE Schwab.
- This Charming Man (The Stranger Times #2) by CK McDonnell
- The Justice of Kings (Empire of the Wolf#1) by Richard Swan

This week I’ve started catching up with blog hopping and I’ve been reading three books, one for SPFBO, one a readalong with my good reading buddy and one a review book. I managed to finish This Charming Man by CK McDonnell which was a good deal of fun. I also started The Justice of Kings by Richard Swan – I’m loving this book, I’m about two-thirds into this so suspect I’ll finish it tonight (but you never know, the best laid plans, etc).
