The three Ws are:

A similar meme is run by Lipsyy Lost and Found where bloggers share This Week in Books #TWiB.

What I’m reading now:

After I’ve Gone by Linda Green

I’ve had this on my TBR for a while now and it finally caught my eye a couple of days ago and it’s such a great read! I’m finding it really hard to put down, it’s a different take on a thriller that I’ve not read before so it’s got me engrossed.

Do Not Become Alarmed by Maile Meloy

I bought this book in the kindle sale last week and have already started reading. It’s not what I thought it was going to be but it’s got me intrigued about what’s happening and how it’s going to end so I’m keen to read more.

Baby Lost by Hannah Robert

I’ve read a lot more of this book this week and I’m finding it such a moving and also inspiring read. I’d definitely recommend it but have some tissues to hand.

The Devil in the White City by Erik Larson

I’ve finally got into this book and am finding it utterly fascinating. I’m really enjoying the way it’s written with one chapter about the men behind the Chicago World Fair and then alternate chapters about HH Holmes, it makes for a really dynamic read. I’ve only read a few chapters so far but I recommend this book.

 

What I recently finished reading:

Not A Sound by Heather Gudenkauf

I really enjoyed reading this thriller. It was refreshingly different to read a thriller where the protagonist is deaf. I’m on the blog tour for this book so will be sharing my review on the 18th July.

The End We Start From by Megan Hunter

This is such a brilliant novella! I was expecting it to be a straightforward dystopian read but it has so much depth to it and I adored it. I’ll be reviewing it once I can get my thoughts in order.

A Manual for Heartache by Cathy Rentzenbrink

I bought this book on kindle but I loved it so much that I’ve now treated myself to the hardback as well. I plan on buying copies for a couple of friends too and it’s a book I’ll be shouting from the rooftops about.

Last Seen by Lucy Clarke

I’m a huge fan of Lucy Clarke so have been eagerly anticipating this book and it exceeded my expectations! I loved it! I’ve already reviewed this book so you can read my thoughts here if you’d like to.

What I plan on reading next:

The Other Twin by Lucy V. Hay

I’ve been so excited to read this book and will definitely be reading it in the next couple of days! I’m anticipating it being unputdownable so will be sure to pick it up when I have an afternoon free.

Her Deadly Secret by Chris Curran

I’m also excited to read this book, it’s one I’ve had my eye on for a while and I can’t wait to start it!

  1. Last sen has such a beautiful cover and I am glad that to hear that it was equally a great read. The other twin has great reviews, I hope that you will enjoy it. Have a wonderful week. Happy reading 🙂

  2. You really do have some lovely books there! And I like the variety, too: non-fiction, thrillers, psychological novels, etc.. You have some good ‘uns there.

  3. A good variety of interesting books on the go there!
    I’ve recently finished Stuart Maconie’s Long Walk from Jarrow, retracing the marchers’ steps: I enjoyed it and I’m reviewing it for Shiny New Books so a post will come out on it later in the month.
    I’m currently reading Oxford Mourning, a light crime novel with a novelist heroine, and John-Paul Flintoff’s Sew Your Own, which is about a search for meaning but is quite disjointed (luckily I knew it would be) and nicely mentions some other “quest” authors I’ve read.
    Next up will be Marian Keyes’ new novel because I CANNOT WAIT.

  4. I do hope you enjoy the Other Twin! It is on my list 🙂 I see nothing but high praise. I just started See What I Have Done by Sarah Schmidt – undecided on how well I am enjoying it, but it is early.

  5. Hi Hayley,
    Great to know about your reading. I’m an Agatha Christie fan. I’m reading The Mysterious Mr Quin and planning to read One Two Buckle My Shoe. I finished The Talisman Ring by Georgette Heyer recently. Thanks for sharing about books 🙂

  6. How do you read so many books at once? It’s a skill I’ve sadly never managed to acquire, LOL. I really want to read The Other Twin too. Sounds so good!
