Another Monday, another set of books to devour! I didn’t blog at all last week, as you may have noticed. We’re downsizing at the end of this week at work, and these last few days have felt like they fly by. So much work, so many loose ends to tie up. It’s pretty insane. So I’m taking a break to do what I love. I missed you guys.

  

Last week was Bout of Books and, although I was laid up in bed with a cold most of the weekend, I did get 4 books read! The Morning Dew by Edward Lorn is a short story that will give the shivers. I loved it. Paper Towns I listened to on audio, and fell in love with. Blackfin Sky had a ton of promise, but didn’t quite follow through with what I was hoping for. The atmosphere was great though! Call Me Grim was just okay. I loved the premise, but the execution left me wanting.

 



I desperately wanted to finish Heir of Fire this weekend, but I spent most of that time sleeping because I wasn’t feeling well. So far, this book is rather amazing! I’m hoping the ending follows suit. I’m also listening to Outlander on audio, and loving it so far! Claire definitely has some fire. I know this book will take some time to listen to, but I like the narrator enough that I don’t mind.

 

I’ve been reading a lot of YA lately, and have had a craving for some Middle Grade fiction. I saw Esther Ehrlich’s Nest on NetGalley and promptly snatched it up. A book about quiet summers, friendship, and so much more. I can’t wait to dive in.

 

That’s it for me! What are YOU reading this week? Don’t forget to leave a link so I can go and visit you too!
