Week In Review

November 20 – 26

Happy Sunday! I’m feeling festive this weekend: our Christmas tree is up, our decorations are out, and I’ve been looking up Christmas baking recipes.

New books:

Penguin Random House Canada sent some goodies my way (thank you!):

Bonfire, Krysten Ritter;

The End We Start From, Megan Hunter; and

Artemis, Andy Weir.

I also did my own version of Black Friday shopping, picking up two books:

The Power, Naomi Alderman (girls around the world develop powers and men are afraid); and

IQ, Joe Ide (to keep up with my mystery/thriller kick this year).

Books read:

I finished four books:

The Knife of Never Letting Go, Patrick Ness;

Pride and Prejudice and Mistletoe, Melissa de la Cruz;

Retribution Rails, Erin Bowman; and

Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire, JK Rowling.

Current reads:

I started an e-ARC of Meg Wolitzer’s The Female Persuasion, and as part of a goal to finally read some classics, I started Jane Austen’s Northanger Abbey.

Reviews:

Two reviews this week:

The Secret Place, Tana French; and

The Knife of Never Letting Go, Patrick Ness.

Time to catch up with Coronation Street and then read by the Christmas Tree!
