This week has been another quiet week as I’m still not doing so well. It has meant that I’ve been doing lots of reading though so I’m very happy to have lovely books to escape into!
Just yesterday I finished reading The Murders at White House Farm by Carol Ann Lee, which was such a fascinating and in-depth book. I wanted to read more about this case after seeing the adverts for the new ITV drama based on the case and I’m so glad that this was the book I picked.
As usual I have a few books on the go at the moment but the one I’m focusing on is What She Saw Last Night by Mason Cross. It’s such an intriguing book that had me gripped from the opening pages and I can’t wait to find out what happened on this train!
TV wise this week I’ve been really enjoying Richard Osman’s House of Games, which is my absolute favourite game show ever! If you’ve never seen it it’s on BBC2 on weeknights at 6pm. I love that it involves a brain work out but you don’t need to know loads of stuff. I recommend it!
It’s been a busy week on the blog this week as I’ve had a new post up every day.
I posted a weekly wrap-up last Sunday and I’m hoping to keep this up as I do enjoy putting together a post of what’s been happening in the week.
On Monday I shared my review of The Choice by Claire Wade, a novel that I found both gripping and thought-provoking so I recommend it!
On Tuesday I posted my review of The Fallout by Rebecca Thornton, another book that I enjoyed. It’s all about toxic friendships plus secrets and lies, which I’m always drawn to in fiction!
On Wednesday I posted my WWW Wednesday post where I share all the books that I’m currently reading, the books I’ve read over the course of the week and what I plan to read over the next week.
On Thursday I shared a mini review posts and wrote about The Toymakers by Robert Dinsdale and It’s A Wonderful Night by Jaimie Admans. I adored both of these books, they made me happy and I now want to read everything that both authors have written!
On Friday I shared my review of The Home by Sarah Stovell. This book was stunning and I already feel like it’s going to be one of my favourite books of 2020!
Yesterday I posted another book haul! Ooops! I do want to read more of the books that I already own this year but I always find January such a hard month so I’m giving myself a pass until February!
How has your week been? I hope you’ve had a lovely week and had time to do some reading. If you’ve shared a wrap-up post please feel free to leave your link before and I’ll make sure to visit your post. 🙂
Great looking books! What She Saw Last Night is grabbing me. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you 🙂 It was a really gripping thriller.
Thank you! 🙂 What She Saw Last Night was such a gripping thriller, I enjoyed it.
Lovely wrap Hayley!
Thank you 🙂
I hope you’ll soon be doing lots better, Hayley. In the meantime, it does look as though you’ve had a good reading week, and that’s always a nice thing. I’d like to read the Lee, myself…
It was such an interesting and very in-depth book, I recommend it.
I love books for escape too. It’s how I stay sane. LOL Sorry I’ve missed some of your recent posts. I’ll do better!
No need to apologise. 🙂 I’m so behind with all things blog related at the moment so I know what it’s like. Hope you’ve been reading some good books. 🙂
I hope you soon feel better, Hayley. Thank goodness for books – and Richard Osman’s House of Games, which is required viewing in our household, too. Answersmash on a postcard…:)). I hope the coming week is a better one!
Thank you 🙂 I’ve been really poorly but am starting to feel human again now. I just need my concentration to come back properly so that I can get back to reading again. I’m so happy to find another House of Games fan! It’s my favourite TV show, I never miss an episode, it always feels like a brain workout but so much fun at the same time. 🙂
It must be a real nuisance – but all I would say is to give yourself plenty of time to recover. Thinking of youx. Yes – we both LOVE our House of Games fix:)). Like you say, it’s quirky and fun, but also quite a mental workout!
