My Week in Books – 12th February 2023

MyWeekinBooksOn What Cathy Read Next last week

Monday – I published my review of crime novel Where Roses Never Die by Gunnar Staalesen.

Tuesday – This week’s Top Ten Tuesday topic was all about debut novels and I looked back at ten debut novels I enjoyed.

Wednesday – I published my review of WW2 thriller, Dead of Night by Simon Scarrow to close out the blog tour. And as always WWW Wednesday is a weekly opportunity to share what I’ve just read, what I’m currently reading and what I plan to read next… and to take a peek at what others are reading. 

Thursday – I shared my publication day review of historical crime mystery, A Gift of Poison by Bella Ellis

Friday – I published my review of dual time novel, My Mother’s Shadow by Nikola Scott

Saturday – I made another trip Down the TBR Hole – with limited success on this occasion.


New arrivals

Absolutely nothing, which will continue to be the case whilst I’m on holiday.

My Week in Books – 5th February 2023

MyWeekinBooksOn What Cathy Read Next last week

Monday – I made a quite successful trip Down the TBR Hole

Tuesday – This week’s Top Ten Tuesday topic was a freebie and I went with Books Set in the Caribbean for reasons that will become obvious if you read the post.

Wednesday – As always WWW Wednesday is a weekly opportunity to share what I’ve just read, what I’m currently reading and what I plan to read next… and to take a peek at what others are reading. 

Thursday – I shared my Five Favourite January 2023 Reads.

Friday – I published my ‘Lucky Dip’ Q&A with Glynn Holloway, author of In the Shadows of Castles, along with an extract from the book.

Saturday – I took part in the monthly #6Degrees of Separation meme forging a chain from Trust by Hernan Diaz to How to Travel with a Salmon by Umberto Eco. Yes, really!


New arrivals

Absolutely nothing, which will also be the case for the next few weeks as I’m on holiday.
