Today I’m taking in part in This Week in Books, which was started by Lipsyy Lost and Found! If you want to join in you just need to share what you’re reading now, what you’ve read over the last week, and what you hope to read next.
Now
The Death of Mrs Westaway by Ruth Ware
I just started reading this last night and am only four chapters in so far but it’s got me very intrigued and I’m looking forward to reading more soon.
Her Name Was Rose by Claire Allen
This is the main book that I’m reading at the moment as it’s got me gripped. I only started this yesterday too but I just don’t want to put it down.
F*** You Very Much by Danny Wallace
I haven’t read any more of this book over the last week but I definitely plan on making it more of a priority in the coming week.
Then
Girl Up by Laura Bates
I’m way older than the target age for this book and yet I still got so much more out of it than I was expecting. I wish this book had existed when I was a teenager and it’s definitely a book that I’ll be recommending for teenagers from now on.
The Afterlife of Walter Augustus by Hannah M. Lynn
This book was so wonderful, I adored it! It was different to anything I’ve read recently and I can’t stop thinking about it. I’m saving my review for the blog tour in July but I can say now that I highly recommend it.
The Craftsman by Sharon Bolton
I read this book in just a couple of sittings and I loved it. It was one of those books that pulls you in and keeps you gripped all the way to the end.
Jar of Hearts by Jennifer Hillier
This was such a great thriller and I very much enjoyed it. I read most of it in one sitting because it was so fast-paced that there just wasn’t a moment where I felt I could put it down as I just wanted to know what was going to happen next.
Next
Toxic by Nicci Cloke
I’ve had this on my TBR for a few weeks now and the stunning summery cover is really making me want to pick this up during this heatwave. It sounds like a good YA thriller too so I’m sure I’ll fly through this one!
Watching You by Lisa Jewell
I love Lisa Jewell’s writing so I was thrilled to get approved to read this on NetGalley recently and I don’t think I can wait any longer to start reading it.
Ivy and Abe by Elizabeth Enfield
This is a bit of a change from the crime fiction and thrillers I’ve been reading recently and I’m just in the mood to add this one to my currently reading. I love novels that explore the idea of fate and whether we’re destined to meet certain people in our lives.
What have you been reading this week? I’d love to hear. And if you take part in This Week in Books or WWW Wednesday please feel free to leave your link below and I’ll make sure to visit and comment on your post. 🙂
Enjoy your reading
I’ve read Watching You and it’s fab, enjoy Hayley 😊
Was about to say can’t wait to read Mrs Westaway but actually I need Ivy and Abe ! Great picks all round though!
So many tempting books! I also have The Death of Mrs. Westaway, and I’ve pre-ordered Watching You. I’ve had my eye on Jar of Hearts. Thanks for sharing, and here’s MY WWW POST
Fab collection there. I’m just getting my post together so I’ll come back with my link soon.
You have some nice books there! I’m reminded, too, that I absolutely must read some Ruth Ware. And I think you’ll like the Bolton. She’s such a talented writer, isn’t she?
Jar of Hearts was so good. Glad to see you enjoyed it, too!
The Death of Mrs Westaway is on my TBR
Her Name Was Rose looks so good!
As ever, a fascinating selection, Hayley. I’m impressed you read Jar of Hearts more or less in one sitting, given your ability to read a number of books at the same time.
