This is my first post in around ten days, as I’ve been on holiday! Go on, admit it – you didn’t even notice that I wasn’t here, did you? 😀
This month I’ve managed to read two of my backlist titles from Novel Knight’s BTB Challenge, and it’s getting to the point now where I don’t think that I’ll be able to read all of my backlist before the end of the year. 😳
- This Savage Song by V. E. Schwab – regular readers of my blog will know that I love Schwab’s novels, and this one was no exception
- The Loney by Michael Andrew Hurley – I was a little sceptical about this one as it’s had quite mixed reviews, but I really liked it
I’ll be doing mini reviews of the books I read whilst I was away, including the two mentioned above, in the next few days.

You won’t believe this but I DIDN’T BUY ANY BOOKS IN AUGUST! (And yes, that is worth shouting about!) I received a few books to review, but haven’t purchased anything. This won’t last, as I have Godsgrave on pre-order so I’ll be getting at least one book this month. Because of this incredible restraint, by TBR is continuing it’s slow but steady downward trend:

I did notice actually! 😜
Hope you had a lovely break! I too am starting to panic about the backlist challenge. I’ve read two so far and there are even five I’ve not even bought yet 😂
Well done on not buying any books for a whole month! I’m almost at a full week and getting seriously twitchy!
Ha ha! I did have a lovely break, thank you. Now trying to get back into work 😣
Hee hee – these back list challenges. Whilst I love the idea, new books are just too tempting!
Hope you had a great time 🙂 X
It was lovely, thank you! Now I need to start planning the next one! 😂
That’s the only thing, once you get back it’s like you’ve never been away 😂
I noticed!! I even visited your blog in case I accidentally unfollowed you! Even if you don’t complete the challenge, you can see from the chart alone, you’ve done amazing!
Lol! I guess it’s not too bad – all those new books are just too tempting! And, there are a few months to go… 😂
I noticed!! Hope you had a wonderful holiday!
No new books, that’s actually really awesome.
Ahhh yes, the backlist challenge, those new releases are not quitely sitting in the background waiting to be read are they?!
I had a fantastic holiday, thank you!
😂 I do find that the new books shout louder when I’m choosing my next read! Ah well, I’ll get to the backlist eventually!
