Oh hello Nightshifts my old friend, you’re back to torture me again. Four nightshifts this week – with three more to come next week – and my reading list is essentially nice and lightweight to cope with the toll that staying up all night is taking on my concentration and brainpower!
That said, the list is dominated by Christmas novellas and special releases – I’m planning a string of posts on Christmas themed reading (of all lengths) for when we get a bit closer to the time.

I may have acquired a couple of books this week during the early hours. NetGalley is just so tempting. And I won a copy of Alexander McCall Smith’s Emma retelling too. And then I just had to buy the second Parasol Protectorate story and the prequel short story. Ahem. There’s something about being awake in the middle of the night that seems to just force you to do impulse purchasing…
