I'm currently reading an ARC of To Catch an Earl, and I'm really enjoying it. The first book in the series (This Earl of Mine) was my favorite historical romance last year, and although I don't love this one as much, it's definitely going to be a 4 star read for me :)

I'm also listening to Third Girl, which I'm not enjoying that much. There's just too much going on, and when even Poirot is complaining that it's all "too much!", you know that's true :D But still, Hugh Fraser (he played Hastings in the iTV series to David Suchet's Poirot) clearly had fun doing the narration, so it's still enjoyable for me

Jen (skipp) | 5 comments So far this week I've finished The Starless Sea and False Value
Both have been successes: The Starless Sea is my new favorite book, it completely bowled me over. False Value is my new favorite 'Rivers of London' book - I really love this series.
I've moved on to Sherlock Holmes: The Voice of Treason on Audible and I'm trying to find my copy of Sew You Want to be a Hero so I can finish that as well <3
I'm back to work today as there's no official quarantine where I live, I've been off with viral symptoms all week. Luckily my cough has gone (I think I had flu, but tests aren't being offered unless you've been abroad), still exhausted.
Pretty worried because my parents are both high risk (one's having chemo, the other only has 1 functioning lung) - so I'm at least isolating myself from them.

Got to admit, I found some of the Poirot books really annoying too ^^" - hopefully it picks up for you :)
Glad to hear you're enjoying your other read though!

message 9: by Jen (new)

Jen (skipp) | 5 comments Couldn't find Sew You Want to be a Hero (although it's gotta be one one of my shelves XD ) - so I've decided to start Children of Blood and Bone.
I also really need to finish The King of Crows - I love this series, and this is proving a good final book, not sure why I'm struggling with it so much ^^"

Trip  (shardsofromance) I'm currently reading The Hitman's Guide to Making Friends and Finding Love which is hilarious and so ott but amazing. Also about to start Get a Life, Chloe Brown which looks great for me.

I started reading Rule Breaker, and I'm really enjoying it. Although I think it will wreck me, the feels are strong with this one. But I'm enjoying the snark and sarcasm immensely.

I also started The Golden Tresses of the Dead. I'm trying to finish the series. I really loved it in the beginning, but I can't get into the more recent books. I don't know why.

I started listening to Four Arthurian Romances: Erec et Enide, Cligès, Lancelot, Yvain because I couldn't resist 16 hours of Nicholas Boulton's voice (yes, yes, I know
And I read one of the stories at University (mind you, I suffered through it in Old German, which is a special kind of torture you have to go through when you study German...), so I at least know what I'm getting into).
I also started a re-read of P.G. Wodehouse's Jeeves and Wooster books, because I need something light and fun.
I'm also reading The Priory of the Orange Tree, and I have I feeling I will solm start a review with "unpopular opinion!" But I'm not far in yet, so I'll give it a chance!

Gio Listmaker  (giohumanistlistmaker) Not sure what to read next. Maybe more rereads.


Emily Just Emily*~* | 2 comments I'm currently finishing up the Dark Hunter series with Stygian (Dark-Hunter, #27) by Sherrilyn Kenyon and reading a book called Sidewalk for my American Crime class.
I'm sad the Dark Hunter series is ending, for now, hopefully not forever:)
