October has been a long month where I’ve been very busy during the week and relaxed at the weekend. Half-term has been a wonderful opportunity to re-charge my batteries, catch up on lots of reading – and do some baking!
Books I’ve read:
I’ve read 18 books this month which is the most I’ve read in a while – but I did have half-term! The highlights were Midnight Treasure, Birdie and The Haunting of Fortune Farm.


















NetGalley:
My feedback ratio is at 97%. I had my feedback at 99% with one book to leave feedback on, but then I found a couple I couldn’t resist.


Books sent by publishers:
I am grateful to have been sent 6 books by publishers this month.






Books bought:
I’ve bought 9 books this month. There goes my TBR! I’m trying to read a few more adult books as well and I’m loving cosy fantasy /witchy books.









Fairyloot Adult Book
I’ve also now got a subscription to the adult book box for Fairyloot. This month’s read is one I’m really looking forward to:

How has your reading month been? Have you read any of these? Have you any of them on your TBR?
I am always amazed at the number of books you read every month Mary, despite your busy job! I’ve read a few from your selection and have to say that the Piers Torday book, Midnight Treasure was my highlight. I love his majestic writing and thought that this was a refreshing twist on the vampire theme. Have a lovely weekend 😊

I did have half term which helped this month! I totally agree that Midnight Treasure is fantastic – I’m definitely looking forward to seeing where this series goes.

I can truthfully say, no, I do not have any of the above on my shelf but I have a granddaughter of 5 who loves reading so, thank you for providing me with a few new options to read with her.
