The month that was… October 2019

What a month!  For whatever reason, October just felt like too much.  Work has been far too busy, and wasn’t helped by me feeling awful for at least half of the month with a combination of coughs, colds, and a random sickness bug.  I’m optimistic for a better month in November, not least because it’s my birthday this month! 😀

Of the books I reviewed in October, my favourites were:

• The Vanished Bride by Bella Ellis
• You Let Me In by Lucy Clarke
• A Thousand Ships by Natalie Haynes

I also posted reviews of:

• Survivors by G. X. Todd
• Bloody Rose by Nicholas Eames
• Picnic at Hanging Rock by Joan Lindsay
• My Name is Monster by Katie Hale
• CTRL S by Andy Briggs
• Golden State by Ben H. Winters

And I took part in two blog tours, sharing reviews of:

• Cage by Lilja Sigurdardóttir
• The Dead Girls Club by Damien Angelica Walters

I took part in Dewey’s 24-Hour Readathon, and shared a round up post of the four books I read, and I re-posted my review of Wakenhyrst by Michelle Paver along with the gorgeous new paperback cover.

TBR Watch

One bonus of readathon is that my TBR takes a bit of a hit in reading four books over the course of a single weekend.  I can normally only dream of such speediness!

I may have treated myself to a few new tomes this month as well 🙂
