Weekly Roundup

Posted February 22, 2020 by Nicky in General / 4 Comments

Welllll, that was an anxiety-inducing game and a very disappointing outcome. If any of you visiting here are French and follow rugby… let’s not talk about it.

Anyway, it’s been a quiet week around here, but I got some new books!

Books acquired:

Cover of When the Dogs Don't Bark by Angela Gallop Cover of The Great Pretender by Susannah Cahalan Cover of The Five by Hallie Rubenhold

Reviewed this week:

Small Robots, by Thomas Heasman-Hunt. Just delightful. 5/5 stars
Heartstopper vol. 3, by Alice Oseman. Adorable as ever, though not pure fluff; the boys have a lot to deal with. 5/5 stars
One Corpse Too Many, by Ellis Peters. Love the historical setting and the way it shapes the mystery; loved a character I did not expect to love. 4/5 stars
When the Dogs Don’t Bark, by Angela Gallop. Interesting, though a bit unfocused. 3/5 stars

What’s everyone been reading?

  1. All three of your Books Acquired sound right up my alley and I am adding to my Want To Read shelf asap! I’ve been seeing the Heartstopper volumes floating around blogs, Goodreads and YouTube and I am interested in picking them up eventually 🙂

    I hope you have a great week!

    • I’ve read two of them and they were really interesting! Particularly The Five. 🙂 Oh, and Heartstopper’s totally adorable! If you ever want to give it a try before you buy, it’s actually originally a webcomic and there’s tons of it available online.
