CURRENTLY READING:
The People at Number 9 by Felicity Everett – I’ve seen this has not been getting the best reviews, but I love a story about creepy neighbours, so we’ll see how this goes!
BOOKS FINISHED THIS WEEK:
Based on a True Story by Delphine de Vigan – this was a disappointing read for me. I was expecting something twisty & turny, but I didn’t get it.
The Last Sin by K. L. Murphy – I received and read this as part of a book blog tour. As a police procedural, it’s not the kind of book I often go for, but I really enjoyed this one!
BOOKS I’M PLANNING ON READING NEXT:
I’d like to get two of these read in the next week, 3 if I really push myself! I’m not quite in a slump at the moment, but I am finding myself really easily distracted from my books.
BOOKS BOUGHT THIS WEEK:
I love the cover of this and when I noticed it was only 99p on the Kindle, I had to get it!
I also bought these two BEAUTIES! I couldn’t resist picking up Tess of the D’Urbervilles and The Turn of the Screw when I saw these cover versions. Buy 1 get 1 half price at WHSmith so I got them both for just £11!
(Do you like my Clues & Reviews photo rip-offs? Hehe)
BOOKS RECEIVED THIS WEEK:
I received The Mayfly, Savage Rising and The Wardrobe Mistress on Netgalley this week!
SOME OF MY FAVOURITE BLOGS THIS WEEK:

The people at number 9 sounds good. I didn’t know there were mixed reviews. I look forward to reading what you think about this one! Nice book haul too!! I don’t know what The Mayfly is about but the cover intrigues me.

I started it this morning (even though ?I said I started it yesterday) and am already 18% through it, so it’s a quick & easy read so far. A bit ominous but not a lot has happened yet 😛
Also, my Netgalley picks post has more info about The Mayfly 🙂

I’ve just finished reading Sweet Pea and it was brilliant, I really hope you enjoy it as much as I did. I LOVE the cover on your new copy of Tess of the D’Urbervilles – it’s one of my favourite books and I already have multiple copies of it but I may have to seek out this edition too. Happy reading! 🙂
