Good Monday everyone!

How are you all doing? 

I feel as though my blog has been mostly “Filling the Shelf” these past few months, and I keep saying I have reviews in the work (which is true) but almost never end up putting them up. But at least, I’ve been reading! Good, right? I’ve been so busy with work these past few months, and once the day is done I mostly want to take a break from the computer and read rather than work on reviews.

After a 3 weeks break, I do have a nice selection of new books to share! I actually already listened to The Other People and really enjoyed it, it was an entertaining thriller. I also wish I had waited to get my hands on Eight Perfect Murders, as I only learned after I had it in my hands that it would spoil a few thrillers I plan on reading, as well as a few more. So it won’t be the first I read, that’s for sure!

The Other People by C.J. Tudor (audio) – How A Woman Becomes a Lake by Marjorie Celona – Eight Perfect Murders by Peter Swanson

Platform Seven by Louise Doughty (audio) – You Are Not Alone by Greer Hendricks & Sarah Pekkanen

White Houses by Amy Bloom – The Sun Down Motel by Simone St. James – Seven Blades in Black by Sam Sykes

  6. I am sometimes tempted to go to bed early and not write a review but I figure getting behind would be more difficult for me.
    This looks like another good book haul for you.

    • That’s great that you manage to do it, I definitely need a bit more discipline with my reviews as I’m always behind! Thank you for stopping by 🙂
