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 Flight Attendant by Chris Bohjalian
I’ve been wanting to read this book ever since I first heard about it so I was thrilled when I discovered it on audio during my current free trial of Scribd! I’m very much enjoying this and am intrigued to find out where it’s going.
The Conviction of Cora Burns by Carolyn Kirby
I’ve only read a couple of chapters of this so far as my eyes are struggling again but I loved what I’ve read and can’t wait to read more.
White Lies by Lucy Dawson
This is another audio book that I’m mid-way through and I’m enjoying it. There are lots of lies happening and now I’m keen to find out what the truth of the matter is!
The Innocent Man by John Grisham
This is my current kindle book so I’m reading it with the font huge to try and help my eyes. I’ve only managed one chapter this week but I’m back engrossed in this book and am keen to read more.
Then
The Flower Girls by Alice Clark-Platts
I knew I was going to love this book but it was even more brilliant than I was expecting it. My mind is spinning at the moment as I only finished it shortly before putting this post together but I definitely recommend it. I hope to review this one soon… once I get my thoughts in order.
Salvage the Bones by Jesmyn Ward
I’ve shamefully had this on my NG shelf for almost a year unread but when I spotted the audio book on Scribd I decided to half listen and half read. I really enjoyed this novel, it’s one that is staying in my mind. This was my first book by this author but it definitely won’t be the last.
Goodnight Malaysian 370: The Truth Behind The Loss of Flight MH370 by Ewan Wilson
This was an interesting read that I got as part of my free trial of kindle unlimited.
Next
The Point of Poetry by Joe Nutt
I’m really keen to read this book, it sounds like it might be just the thing to give me some of my confidence back to read more poetry.
Call Me Star Girl by Louise Beech
This book has been calling to me ever since it arrived a week or so ago and I just can’t wait any longer to read it. Eyes permitting it’s top of my list for the coming days!
Sleep by C. L. Taylor
I’ve been so eager to read this one too so it’s a definite for this week!
Chickens Eat Pasta by Clare Pedrick
This is an audio book that I’ve been sent to listen to for a forthcoming blog tour so I think now will be the perfect time.
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. 🙂
Love the title of Chickens Eat Pasta!
Cora Burns is slowly inching its way closer to the top of my TBR and I can’t wait to get to it!
Wow some great books, quite a few that I want to read as well!
I’ve finished my Iris Murdoch for the month, I’m currently reading a fun novel about a man whose mother’s dying wish is for him to build a mosque in his very monocultural Warwickshire village, and I’ll be getting back to Janet McNeil’s intriguing “The Maiden Dinosaur” after that. Hope your eyes feel better again soon.
You have a nice lot of books there, Hayley! I keep hearing good things about The Conviction of Cora Burns. I know I want to read that one. And, of course, Grisham doesn’t disappoint. I look forward to your review of that one!
Great list of books, Hayley! I hope your eyes are feeling better this week and I look forward to what you think of all of these, but especially the Louise Beech!
I really liked The Flight Attendant. I hope you do as well 🙂
I shall be reading Cora Burns and Call Me Star Girl before too long for blog tours. Both look like fabulous books.
Here’s my WWW link: https://whatcathyreadnext.wordpress.com/2019/03/20/www-wednesdays-20th-march-19/
So many tempting books! I loved The Flight Attendant, and I’m curious about Sleep. White Lies is calling to me. Thanks for sharing, and here’s MY WWW POST
I really liked White Lies. It was a great book!
I enjoyed it too. 🙂
I have an ARC of Cora Burns- I really need to get reading it!
Cora Burns is such a good novel – I really hope you enjoy it as much as I did.
I’ve heard so many wonderful things about Call Me A Star Girl and Sleep! I hope you will enjoy your books this week and happy reading.
I finished Call Me Star Girl and I adored it, it is so good! I’m hoping to start reading Sleep over the weekend. Happy reading to you too 🙂
I can’t wait for my preorder of Call Me A Star Girl to arrive now! I hope you will enjoy Sleep as I have that one ordered as well. 😉 Have a wonderful weekend!
Gutted I haven’t been able to get to Cora to read with you! Can’t wait to hear what you think! So excited to read your review on The Flower Girls I knew you would love it! That ending does take some adjustment!
It’s such a shame the timing didn’t work out for us to read Cora Burns together. We must pick another book to buddy read. 🙂 I’ll try and get my review finished for The Flower Girls for next week. My head is still spinning when I think of it but it was so good!
Yes we will, we will have to see what we have coming up! Oh yay I love it when books do that! x
So many good ones! Sleep sure caught my attention.
Loved The Flower Girls and I’m so excited for Sleep and Star Girl
The Flower Girls was brilliant and so was Call Me Star Girl. I’m hoping to read Sleep this weekend, I can’t wait. 🙂
Started listening to Star Girl.today. very interesting character.
Flower Girls had one heck of ending.
I love CL Taylor but I didn’t get an ARC so I’m wsitimg for release
I feel so guilty that I haven’t had the time to read The Conviction of Cora Burns by Carolyn Kirby yet! I think I’m gonna get The Flower Girls by Alice Clark-Platts in audiobook! Happy reading! xx
I hope you’ll love Cora Burns as much as I did when you get to it, it’s such a brilliant novel. 🙂 xx
