Week in Review #6

 


The Week in Review is where I combine Stacking the Shelves, The Sunday Post and It's Monday! What are you reading?  If you have never joined in on these meme's you can check them out by clicking on the meme and it will take you to the host blog.

The weather is on something because earlier in the week it was super freaking, record breaking freezing with a low of 20! Then the next couple days the highs was back up in the 70s and 80s...lol.

I just can't believe that October only has one week left! I have really been having fun just having an easy fun tbr of reading spooky middle grade books instead of adult horror. :) I have read a LOT too because they are a lot shorter.

What you might have missed on my blog

Review of The Girl in White by Lindsay Currie

Books I have added

 

  • The Gentleman of Holly Street - I like historicals and that cover just called to me. :)
  • Four Parties and a Funeral - I am not a huge fan of this series but I still enjoy it and like the author.
  • Welcome to Feral - This looks like a cute graphic novel.

Books read last week

 


I got a ton done this week but just remember they are middle grade books (all but one) and so they read quicker and I listened to most on audiobook.
  • Garlic and the Witch - A Cute Graphic novel. I did enjoy book one more but it was still cute and a very autumnal read. It was 160 pages.
  • Monster Club - Not a very original book but still entertaining. 352 pages.
  • The Twig Man - This one was good, a few slow spots. 192 pages.
  • Something Wicked - This finishes up a trilogy and was good. 6 hour audiobook at 1.75x.
  • Closed for the Season - This book was kind of slow. Heard good things about the author so maybe I just got the dud. 182 pages.
  • No Parm No Foul - This was just okay. I just am not a huge fan of the MC. 8 hr audiobook at 2x.
  • No Place For Monsters - This was fun! I followed along with the ebook so I could see the fun illustrations but the audiobook had fun special effects to give a spooky feel! 4 hours on audibook at 1.75x
  • Ravenfall - This was a fun fantasy type middle grade and start to a new series. 7 hrs on audiobook at 2x.
  • How to Seize a Dragon's Jewel - This is a really fun series! Only two more books to go and I am kind of bummed. Great on audiobook! 6 hrs at 1.75x.
  • Valentina Salazar is NOT a Monster Hunter - This was an okay read. 8 hrs on audiobook at 2x.
  • Camp Murderface - This was a fun spooky camp story! 8 hrs on audio at 2x.

Currently reading

 

  • Faithless - Just started this one and it's 15 hours on audibook so about 2 1/2 hours into it. So far it's okay.
  • Murder on the Poet's Walk - I am almost finished with this one so will probably finish it up today.
  • Night Gardener - Just starting this one so only about a chapter into it.
  • Red Rover - I am about 24% into this one and Rover is a freaky dog!
  • Blood of the Witch - I am about halfway through this one and it's fun.

What might be up next

 


  • The Stars Did Wander Darkling - Middle Grade eARC.

  2. I agree about the weather. Our weather has normally cooled down by now, but it's still in the 70s or 80s. Yesterday and today, though, it cooled off a lot. We're supposed to get snow. I bet it goes back up, though. Sigh.

  4. It's been warm here too- 70's the last few days. I like it but it's been weird because I didn't see the weather forecast and had no idea it was gonna be like 77 yesterday lol!

    I haven't read middle grade in so long! I used to read a lot more and kinda miss 'em. :)
