I have a new system for making sure The Count of Monte Cristo doesn’t get neglected. I now read one book during the day and The Count of Monte Cristo is my read before bed, I might only be reading a few pages a night but at least I am progressing.
I hope everyone has had a nice weekend. I have spent the evening busily packaging up an order for my Etsy. The customer ordered A Book A Month for 6 months so they will be receiving 6 mystery books in the post in the next few days. I really hope they like the books as they look fab.
I’m desperately trying to finish these books because I really prefer just reading one book at a time and I feel little overwhelmed having so many books on the go.
I hope everyone is having a good weekend so far. My husband and myself only had to work this morning so we decided to go out for lunch which was a nice treat.
Blogging wise I am still up to date with all my reviews and the reading is going well.
I hope you are all having a good week so far. I am struggling with my current read but I am trying to get through it. If it wasn’t a book sent by the publisher I would DNF but I always like to try and finish a book that has been kindly given to me by a publisher.
There are so many books I intend to read this year so it has been hard to narrow the list down to 5 but here goes.
The Cicero Trilogy by Robert Harris – I bought this last year and I have been eager to read it but I sadly ran out of time in 2022 so I am determined to make time for it this year.
The Persephone Book of Short Stories – I have decided to read this book this year and to try and read one short story a day. I like dividing a substantial book up into manageable segments as it makes me see my progress whilst reading and not feeling bogged down with a book.
Meditations by Marcus Aurelius – This is one of the books I plan to read for my challenge of reading an Ancient Greek or Roman book a month.
Blood of Elves by Andrzej Sapkowski – I meant to start The Witcher series last year but again I ran out of time. This year I am determined to start the series but I probably won’t finish the series.
The Woman Who Would be King by Kara Cooney – This book was on my wish list for ages and I finally had it as a Christmas present off my wonderful husband. Now I have the book I can’t wait to get reading it.
Please drop me a comment if you have taken part in Top 5 Tuesday this week and I will head over for look.
