How was your week? What did you get? 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.
I didn't post last week because I have been battling the flu. I am pretty much over it but the cough is still kicking my butt. I haven't been sick like this is several years and its not fun...lol. The weather going up and down cold, warm, cold, warm doesn't help much either.
So I did a lot of lounging and watching tv and a bit of reading. Mostly I listened to audiobooks as my eyes just didn't want to read.
I have been watching a lot of Acorn TV, finished up Chelsea Detectives which was pretty good. I think a new season is coming in April so I am glad it's not over.
Books I have added
- Death at the Highland Loch by Lydia Travers - First book in a new series. I have enjoyed this authors other series so I am excited to try this one.
Books I Read
- Death at the Highland Loch by Lydia Travers - First book in a new series. I have enjoyed this authors other series so I am excited to try this one.
- You Have Gone Two Far - Third book in the County Kerry series. A gritty Irish mystery. I enjoyed it.
- The Black Ice - The second Harry Bosch book and Bosch is a bit morally grey but he gets the job done and I enjoyed it.
- First three J. P. Beaumont books - I am really enjoying J. P. Beaumont a series started in the 1980s.
- Physik - The third book in the Septemis Heap series and it was a lot better than book two!
- The Secret of the Old Mill - The third book in the Hardy Boys series and I really enjoyed it.
- Listening Woman - The third book in the Leaphorn and Chee series (Dark Winds the TV show is based on this series). I am starting to enjoy this series a bit more than I have been. It's a bit dry but getting better.
- The Silence of the Flans - Cozy mystery reread for a readalong and I didn't like this as much as I did the first time. I think my taste in cozies have changed a bit.
Currently Reading
- Mr. Zero - Trying Patricia Wentworth for the first time and enjoying it. This story is from the 1930s but I am finding the writing style very easy to read. Maybe I am starting to get use to the older books. :) I am on page 84 of 216.
- The Case of the Curious Bride - Perry Mason book five, also from the 1930s and I really like Perry Mason though he is very different in the books than TV show, the old show, not talking about that new thing they created. Almost finished! On page 141 of 182.
- Small Favor - Continuing my reread of Dresden Files and enjoying it a lot. :) 18% into the audiobook.
- The Secret Detective Agency - I am enjoying this one though I haven't read much on it lately. I am 41% into the ebook.

ReplyDeleteYeah, there was several days when I just didn't want to do anything..ugh. I am much better though the stupid cough is lingering.
DeleteI'm sorry you've been sick. I hope you are feeling better. Hope you enjoy your books.
ReplyDeleteFeeling much better, thanks.
DeleteI'm glad to hear you're starting to feel better and that you took the time to rest. I really like Patricia Wentworth and Mr. Zero is a fun one. The Miss Silver books are my favorite, but she has a lot of good standalones too. Have a great week!
ReplyDeleteMr. Zero was entertaining but that one woman was so ditzy it was annoying. I do want to try Miss Silver.
DeleteGlad you are feeling better!
