The Brits Weekly Book Biz: 1-7 January (I was on fire this week!)

| CJRTB Books

Wbbnew1

Here we are in the first week of a new year. I went back to work on Tuesday so that was a major downer!

I was on fire with reading though, staying in for New Years Eve and Day really paid off! It feels so good to see my tbr coming down!

BOOKS I READ

 

Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone by JK Rowling

I really fancied a reread so I did! (like I don’t have a trillion books on my tbr!) To my shame I discovered that I have never written a review for it. Situation is fixed now and you can read my mini review here.

Falling Fast by Aurora Rose Reynolds

A shortie but a great shortie! (From my Beat the Backlist challenge list!) See my review here.

Darkest Temptation by Rachel Van Dyken

I wasn’t sure about this, the same as I wasn’t that sure about the other books in the series. (From my Beat the Backlist challenge list!)  See my review here.

The Hazel Wood by Melissa Albert

An arc read. I really liked this, it was dark and thrilling.

See my review here.

BOOKS/ARCS I GOT THIS WEEK


So I have been naughty – I said I would buy 2 books in January and in the first week 1 got 3!!

WHAT I WANT TO READ THIS WEEK

I don’t think I will get anywhere near the 4 books I read this week but I defo want to read a book from my Beat the Backlist challenge so think I will go for Stalking Jack the Ripper by Kerri Maniscalco and also, if I have time, The Hook Up by Kristen Ashley.

  1. I read the last quarter of ‘The Wolves of the Calla’ by Stephen King and then ‘The Night Circus’ by Erin Morgenstern. Unfortunately after that I got a really bad back, so I decided to listen to the audio book of ‘Jane Eyre’ by Charlotte Bronte
