Greetings!! Strike another week off the calendar!! And another week closer to Christmas! Noticed shops are already full of Christmas decorations and even heard Christmas songs being played in a garden centre I visited the other day – TOO EARLY!!!! There is no escape!!
Hope a good bookish week has been had by you all! Been another productive one here with another 5 books finished! And only 3new books added to the TBR pile! So I’m feeling very smug with myself!! But so many more added to the wish list after reading other peoples’ reviews – it’s all your fault people!! I hope you feel suitably told off!!!
So on with the bookish news sharing!! Click on the title for links to GoodReads reviews and blurbs if you so wish to find out more .. i know you do!!!

BOOK HAUL
A restrained week on the book accumulating front which is always a good thing! Made it to a Bookshop last saturday for #BookshopDay and did hope to pick up a Tote Bag while in store, but they had NONE!!! GGRRRR!! But thankfully a lovely friend who owns a bookshop on the Isle of Bute managed to put one by for me so very happy to have my mitts on one! Guess I’ll have to go shopping again soon and fill it up with lovely books!!
While I was in a bookshop last week, I did pick up one book which is being sold to help raise funds for Oxfam with 100 % of the profits going to worthwhile projects that they run! Please click on the link below if you’d like to order your copy from Waterstones!!
The Invisible Child by Tove Jansson – Waterstones
Ahead of the Blog Tour I’m due to take part in, the copy of Whiteout arrived so really looking forward to racing through this!
The Winds of Heaven by Monica Dickens
And another lovely Persephone book arrives to add to my collection!
CURRENTLY READING
This is my current ‘bedtime’ read and I’m loving it so far! Anything related to Alice in Wonderland is fine by me, and this is a great twist to the story!!
The Book of Speculation by Erika Swyler
Still listening to the audiobook version of this and it is enjoyable BUT I do keep finding my mind wandering!! Is it me or is it the story?! Hopefully I can make it to the end with some memory of what has been going on!
Wide Awake Asleep by Louise Wise
Just about to start this ahead of another Blog Tour soon to come your way!
And that’s it! Another week wrapped up! Any of these caught your eye?! Any new books to recommend my way?!
HAPPY READING!!
