wrap-up – Book Craic

I had a wonderfully relaxing break over Easter with lots of reading and catching up. I also went to Cornwall for the first time for our 10th Wedding Anniversary which was just wonderful. School, as always, is busy with the final preparations for SATs.

Books I’ve read:

I think this has been my best reading month in a long time. I read 22 books: 17 physical copies, 1 e-book and 4 audiobooks. I’ve written reviews for 13 of these.

NetGalley:

My feedback ratio is at 97%. I have requested and been approved to read one book in April.

Books sent by publishers:

I am grateful to have been sent twelve books by Publishers this month.

Books bought:

I’ve bought 9 books in March – and I’ve read read two of them: Shadow Girl and The Doll Twin.

How has your reading month been? Have you read any of these? Have you any of them on your TBR?

Where did November go! I’ve been ridiculously busy at work this month and often working late in the evening with planning, so not as much reading done as I would have liked. I’m so glad I’ve made it a rule that I don’t work at the weekend, but I have now started a Christmas Movie Sunday afternoon, so only read in the morning.

Books I’ve read:

I’ve read 9 books this month which was a lot less than when I had half-term! I enjoyed all of these – the ones that really stood out for me were The Colour of Hope, Utterly Dark and the Heart of the Wild and Stitch.

Books sent by publishers:

I am grateful to have been sent 6 books by Publishers this month as well as a copy of Ember Spark, thanks to the kindness of two wonderful authors, Abi Elphinstone and Mel Taylor-Bessent.

NetGalley:

My Netgalley ratio is at 96%. I have five books on my shelf. I have read Stitch which is amazing and will hopefully find time to write my review this weekend. I have also been sent physical copies of three of these after I had requested them.

Books bought and gifted:

It was my birthday in November so I had some book presents but, as always, I also treated myself to some new books! I tend to ask mostly for adult/young adult books for my birthday and Christmas and buy children’s books myself.
