I continue to feel rather overwhelmed and worn out, but I did manage to actually make some posts last week, so it’s time for a catchup that covers the last two weeks!
Acquired:
Books read in the last two weeks:
Reviews posted:
–Silver in the Wood, by Emily Tesh. A retelling of a less well-worn myth than some, with lots of loveliness. 4/5 stars
–A Short History of Europe, by Simon Jenkins. Rather meh. 2/5 stars
Other posts:
–WWW Wednesday. The usual weekly update!
–A June TBR. I wanted to keep up some of my momentum from last month in keeping up with series, reading stuff I’ve meant to read for ages, etc — but with a lower (easier) threshold, to allow me to include extras. Tahdah, the chosen to-read list!
Out and about:
–NEAT science: ‘Hummingbirds and migration.‘ I was asked specifically about feeding species of hummingbird local to Argentina, and whether it might perturb their natural feeding, migration, etc. The answer is no!
–NEAT science: ‘Wireless charging.‘ Ever wondered how it works? I explain some of the principles.
–NEAT science: ‘You are what your microbes eat.‘ On some of the proof for how your microbiota — the bacteria in your gut — impact your mental health.
And that’s it for this week — all caught up. Except for all the comments and posts I still need to answer… I’m getting there, I swear!
Wow, looks like you had a great week of reading! Curious to hear what you thought of The True Queen and Traitor Baru Cormorant (loved that book).
Well, that was two weeks. 🙂 Reviews to come! The Traitor Baru Cormorant was a reread, so predictably I loved it all over again. 🙂
