Good Monday all,

Hope you had a great week!

I have been doing well mostly, though struggling a bit with gestational diabetes. Luckily I have a great team of doctors and specialists looking out for me so that takes away some of the stress. We are getting close to the end, which is both exciting and terrifying! Looking forward to finally meeting our little boy though 🙂

I have an interesting mailbox this week! Received the Mead Mishaps series as a gift and I’m thinking they’ll be fun reads later this year when I have less time and energy for reading. I borrowed The Lord of Stariel on KU but I’m not sure I’ll have the time to read it before my subscription expires, so I might switch to the audiobook later.

Good Monday everyone,

I had a good reading week though slower than I would have hoped for, being a little more tired than usual. That third trimester is a bit brutal! But at least everything is going well so far.

I found a few good deals this week as well as got my hands on a couple books I was looking forward to reading. Currently in the middle of The Stowaway, it’s a bit more gruesome than I imagined but still a fun thriller.

This Could Be Us by Kennedy Ryan – Butcher & Blackbird by Brynne Weaver (KU) – So Let Them Burn by Kamilah Cole

The Stowaway by James S. Murray and Darren Wearmouth (audio) – A Tempest of Tea by Hafsah Faizal – The Vacation by John Marrs

Hello everyone,

Hope you had a good week. I have a fully fantasy shelf this week, and having read and enjoyed three of these authors before, I have a good feeling about all of these.

A Fate Inked in Blood by Danielle L. Jensen – Heartless Hunter by Kristen Ciccarelli

The Will of the Many by James Islington – When the Moon Hatched by Sarah A. Parker

Good Monday all!

It’s a big mailbox this week, but it counts for two weeks, so I’m fine with it! It’s an intriguing selection of horror, thriller and fiction, some strange books in there. I absolutely hate the cover for Maeve Fly, I almost didn’t include it. To be honest I would never have picked it up if it hadn’t been greatly recommended to me. We’ll see!

Monstrilio by Gerardo Sámano Córdova – Chlorine by Jade Song (audio) – Knock Knock, Open Wide by Neil Sharpson

The Wonder State by Sara Flannery Murphy (audio, library) – Maeve Fly by C.J. Leede (audio, library) – How Can I Help You by Laura Sims (audio, library)
