Oop, it’s the weekend! And today the movers are coming, so this post has been prewritten and I just need to remember to push the publish button. (I’d schedule it, but then WordPress wouldn’t send out any emails saying there was a post, because they have some kind of bug.)
Edit before posting: things didn’t work out for me to post this earlier, so wooo, the movers have been! It’s been a busy, busy day.
Books acquired this week
Two books to review this week, both of which are pretty exciting!
Thank you to Netgalley and Tor for both of them. I’m hoping to tuck into them veeeery soon.

What I’m reading
As usual, let’s start with the roundup of books read since last week…
It wasn’t a huge reading week by my standards — especially because I finished three of those last weekend and then didn’t read much the rest of the week, but it’s not too surprising, what with the move!
I’m not sure if I’ll be reading much this weekend, or what I might be reading. I guess for that we’ll have to wait and see.
Linking up with Reading Reality’s Stacking the Shelves, Caffeinated Reviewer’s The Sunday Post, and the Sunday Salon over at Readerbuzz, as usual!
