What have you been reading this week?

After last week’s disappointment, I’ve actually had quite a productive week. Thanks to having to get through a really repetitive and boring task at work, I’ve finished 3 audiobooks. Yes, they were quite short but that’s beside the point. In a matter of days, I have already made it over halfway through my monthly reading challenge, which is ideal. It means I might actually get to finish the two books that I have in mind for the other letters without having to rush. Hell, I might even manage another spooky book or two… but let’s not get ahead of ourselves. One good week doesn’t mean anything.

What have you been reading this week?

I’ll be honest, in terms of reading, it’s not gone well this week. I think I went too far with the blogging and just overstretched myself. I was so tired most evenings that I couldn’t face doing anything. So, I thought I’d catch up with an audiobook but that didn’t exactly go to plan either. It just means that I’ll have to work hard to catch up in order to complete my October reading challenge. Very very hard.

What have you been reading this week?

My first week back at work hasn’t been too bad I guess. It’s finally getting a bit quieter and less stressful. It’s also been easier to keep up with my reading. So, I managed to finish everything that I needed to for my monthly reading challenge. I also managed to post something on the blog every day to help get on top of my book reviews. That’s the one bad thing about reading so much in a week and something that makes a change from having nothing to write about a guess.

What have you been reading this week?

It’s the last day of my holiday and the day before I’m back at work. I’ve had such a good week that I’m really not ready for it to end. I should book off two weeks in future. I need a week away and then a week to recover. Hopefully, I won’t be going back to a load of unanswered emails and jobs that need doing. Ideally, it’ll be a stress free week to ease myself back in. When has that ever happened. As you will have noticed, I haven’t ben blogging this week. Why am I doing an rundown then? Well, I have read a lot of books. At least, a lot for me. It will be a bit of time before I get round to reviewing them all, so I figured why not update you on what I’ve got through.

What have you been reading this week?

I go away on holiday today, so this will be my last post for a while. Well, unless the weather is absolutely dreadful and I’m stuck inside all week. Then I’ll probably just write something to keep busy. Of course, I should use the time to get ahead with my reading. I had 10 books to read this month and I only finished the 5th one yesterday. If I don’t come home having read at least 3 then I don’t think there’s anyway that I’ll finish my Spell the Month reading challenge this month. I can’t get so far through the year and not manage every month.

What have you been reading this week?

I thought I was doing okay this week but I definitely tapered off towards the end. I’ve been feeling rotten all week and I reckon I’m just tired. Whatever it is, I reached a bit of a low yesterday and all I want to do today is relax. That won’t happen as I’ve got a lot to do. I just need to keep remembering that I’ve got one more week of work before I’m on holiday for a week. I cannot wait to get away and have a proper break from everything. Will I be taking plenty of books? You betcha. I’ve still got a lot to get through.

What have you been reading this week?

I’ve suddenly become very disorganised this week and haven’t been getting my posts ready in advance. It’s all just because I’ve been so busy, so I’m not that bothered. It just means that I’m behind where I should be at this point. Thankfully, I’m off tomorrow for a hospital appointment. This gives me a bit of extra time to get sorted. Although, I’ve said that so often that I’m never going to have time to get everything done. It’s all okay. I’ve only got a couple of weeks until I go away for the week. It’ll be nice to have a break from work and I’ll probably take a break from blogging too. I doubt I’ll get ahead in time, so I might not have a choice.

What have you been reading this week?

Work is absolutely destroying my spirit at the moment. There’s so much to do and everyone is so over-stretched. On Friday, I rejoiced over having an empty inbox for the first time all week even though I still had so much outstanding stuff to still do. I guess you just have to celebrate where you can. Despite having no energy all week, I’ve actually done quite well on the reading front. I’m not one book ahead and have finished my Spell the Month reading challenge early. Meaning I’m trying to squeeze one more book in before September 1st. Who the hell do I think I am?

What have you been reading this week?

August is turning out to be a funny month. Work is destroying me but I’m actually doing okay with reading. I guess I’m more motivated to read when work is getting me down. Or maybe I’m just aware that I have a lot to get through and am actually being good for once. I mean it’s possible that my entire personality has changed overnight. That I’ve suddenly become more dedicated to my bookish pursuits this month. Or it could be that I’m just reading better books? Whatever I’m doing, fingers crossed that it lasts.

What have you been reading this week?

Work is starting to get crazier but I’ve actually done more reading than normal this week. Well, until the end of the week but that’s okay. I have time. The point is, I didn’t struggle to finish a book to review on Friday so I actually managed to post 2 book reviews. This weekend feels like its been busy but I’ve had to try and get my photos for next week sorted out too. My friend just had her second baby and I’m going to see him next week. So, I’ve changes my priorities a bit. I think it’s only fair.
