Welcome to Litsy!

#bookreport
The birthday books are winning the game at the moment!
A Sunny Place was a fabulous collection.
Drowning was a full on action thriller.
Half way through I Who Have Never Known Men and really enjoying it.

#bookreport
Sadly I‘m no longer at Gladstone‘s! Where reading is the name of the game.
Currently reading Love Kills.
Enjoyed all the others. Thanks to @MicheleinPhilly for 1983 😘 - a nostalgic working class reflective novel based in the 80s.

#bookreport
Slow reading week- hoping to fix that with many hours of peaceful reading at Gladstone‘s this week.
Love Me was good.
Blood Like Mine was an enjoyable vampire read.
About half way through The Painter‘s Daughter and enjoying it.

September wrap up.... A good reading month in part as I was in bed with flu for a week or so.

#bookreport
Enjoyed Dead Sleep, good thriller.
Loved Girls.
Started Holy Island last night, a new (to me) series that I‘ve been collecting for 99p!

#bookreport
Vastly reduced reading this week. Work 😞
Black Bird is def not my fave of the series so far, was a bit underwhelmed.
Not far into Dead Sleep yet, but definitely thrilling so far!

#bookreport
Was disappointed in the Atkinson, definitely not my favourite.
Enjoyed The Warehouse- not so far off dystopia.
Dead Friend was an entertaining read.
Loved Fate Breaker.
Just reading The Paper Palace.
A good week, been off work!!

#bookreport
Another good series addition from Rose.
Redemption was an exciting thriller/moral story.
Currently reading the new Jackson Brodie ♥️

#bookreport
Finished Storm Child- really enjoy this series
Finished Bear - discussing later
Fifteen Wild Decembers- about 50% through, it was too noisy in the train to carry on. This book needs quiet time.
Reading Buried Too Deep now.
Got another gig tonight and tomorrow and footie today so not much reading time anticipated.

#bookreport
Not a lot of reading this week. Work 😞
Tiananmen Square was really good.
Storm Child - still reading - didn‘t read the blurb and it‘s about refugees and ‘stopping the boats!‘ Not exactly an escape then after the crappy U.K. week.
I have 6 gigs in 4 days this week so not much reading time, already tired!!

#bookreport
Had a good start to the week with The Treatment and Sunburn. Most of the week spent reading The Alternatives.
Just started Tiananmen Square.

#bookreport
Loved Le Fay ❤️
Her Side of the Story - half way through, there‘s a good story in here- but the translation is clunky and there is so much detail. The first 120 pages could have been 20. I will probably return to this.
Currently reading Sunburn- recommended to me by one of our SU officers.

#bookreport
Survivor‘s Guilt was a great one in this series with a huge twist!
All Fours- not for me
Every Move You Make- entertaining read
Currently reading Le Fay and loving being in the Arthurian world.

#bookreport
Forget me Not 👍🏻 Helen had a lot to deal with in this one
Lula Dean‘s ❤️ lovely read
Any Human Power- v interesting read
Just started Survivor‘s Guilt

Finished All the Colours and loved it.
Finished James and we‘re discussing later!
Reading Forget Me Not, the new Helen Grace 😁

Reading is very slow!
Loved This is Why We Lied- new Will Trent
Under a Rock was a bit disappointing
Reading All the Colours now and loving it even though it‘s very sad!

#bookreport & #weeklyforecast
#finished: Finished two books this week and enjoyed both of them.

#currentlyreading: Didn't finish The Maid for a book club meeting but I imagine that I will be able to do so this week. Started Enough on audio and its a little more eyeopening than I expected. Also started The Summer Book Club and I probably can get that completed this week as well. I am just at a standstill with Alice Munro's Best at the moment.

#bookreport & #weeklyforecast
#finished: finished 2 books this week; wasn't wowed by them, but they were fairly easy to complete.

#currentlyreading: All the Light is for a book club meeting; the Alice Munro is a #slowbutsteady (didn't read from it this week); The Music of Bees is for a previous book club meeting and it shouldn't take a lot of time to complete it.

#bookreport
Guilty Mothers ✔️
Time is Running Out 😳 roller coaster ride
Sandwich ♥️ real life problems and challenges
The Bone Season- started the new authors preferred versions in preparation for number 5 early next year - love this series.

#bookreport & #weeklyforecast
#finished: Nothing so far, but I am almost done with The Awakening.

#currentlyreading: The Awakening should be completed fairly soon; Alice Munro's Best is a #slowbutsteady and I am hoping to work and complete The Music of Bees

#upcomingreads: Need to start All the Light and The Maid for book clubs about a week from now; The Essex Serpent is a restart

Happy reading 📚❤️

#bookreport
How to say you had a couple of days off work…
King new short stories 👍🏻
Clear for #camplitsy24
Trust in Me- entertaining thriller that I‘ve mostly forgotten!
Live Wire- continuing the Myron series
Guilty Mothers- new Kim - current read.

#bookhaul
Double points at Waterstones! Top two are my daughters others are mine.
Not read a word most of this week with work stuff, but more books of course!

#bookreport
Enjoyed The Coast Road
Was highly entertained by The Passengers
Currently reading The List- interesting read so far.

#bookreport
‘Enjoyed‘ In Defence
Ordinary Human Failings was very sad
Stolen Children was the usual action packed detective outing
Reading The Instruments of Darkness at the moment and loving it. Definitely one of my fave series.

#bookreport
24 Hours was an all action thriller
Virgin Widow was to satisfy my R3 obsession this week
Whale Fall was a beautifully written quiet read
Just started In Defence this morning

#bookreport
Enjoyed the new Keyes, always a pleasure.
The Gathering was a good vampire read.
Dipping in and out of The Feminist Killjoy
Reading 24 hours this morning and it‘s all action!

#bookreport
A not much reading week: a work trip to Bahrain that was an adventure (or a nightmare depending on your approach to life)
The weather going out there, multiple changes of flight times/paths etc as we were supposed to fly into Dubai.
Then the worry about missiles/war etc flying back.
I read The Murder House on outgoing flight & started the Keyes coming back. Was too exhausted by then to read much. Have a great weekend ♥️

#bookreport & #weeklyforecast
#finished: I finished quite a number of books this past week, due in large part to #deweysreadathon that was held on Saturday and the fact that I had two book club meetings last week (finished my other book last week). Reviews of these books will be forthcoming this week.

#currentlyreading: still plugging away at The Kingdom and will be picking up The Essex Serpent again this week (just a really busy reading time)

#bookreport & #weeklyforecast
#finished: I finished A House in the Sky and really liked it (I will be posting a review in the next couple of days)

#currentlyreading: Read quite a bit this past week, as I spent the wee hours of Saturday morning finishing up A House in the Sky. I also spent quite a bit of Saturday reading The Kingdom, The Power, and The Glory and feel like this will need a reread at some point. I hope to either finish or continue

Empire was a big book and took most of the week with work commitments as always! Loved it.
Cheater was a good Rose book- not as gruesome as some of hers, enjoying this series.
Just started VC so I can give back to the lovely Helen next week!

#bookreport & #weeklyforecast
#finished: A very successful week; finished Evidence of Things Unseen and Hamnet. Enjoyed Hamnet more.

#currentlyreading: I am reading quite a bit. Cutting is almost done; Northwoods should be a few reads until I completed; will work on the other three to get them done this week, but I can guarantee nothing.

#upcoming: A House & Fried Green Tomatoes are #bookclub reads and Wolf Hall is a #buddyread.

According to my IPad my screen time was up 20%, I‘ve watched a ton of Friends episodes and haven‘t read very much at all. Love, Theoretically was #52Bookclub24 #WomeninStem and just ok for me. I am behind on both buddy reads and decided to DNF #TheBros. Enjoying The Biography of X. And have still only read one of the stories from Florida. 🤞🏼 for a better reading week. Next up Hello Beautiful and Let Us Descend.

#bookreport
Fabulous week for me in the quality of the books.
Christ on a Bike and Greta and Valdin were brilliant.
Outside Looking In was a good 2nd one in a series.
I‘m loving The List of Suspicious Things, hopefully finish over the weekend but have a lot of work stuff to do.
