The Week in Books: May 6 – May 12

Not going to lie, there was a slightly fatal flaw in my reading plans this week – I bought two books in Foyles and started reading one of them – forgetting that I was going away at the weekend and that I was going to be too far through it for it to be worth carting it away with me for more than a week (I would have finished it before the end of the first day). And so there we are – a shorter list, with one book that was in contention for BotW unfinished, and no idea what I’m going to do tomorrow. Why am I so bad at organising my reading? Actually it’s not bad at organising. I know what I should be doing, it’s just that I am so easily tempted by shiny new books and then it derails all my plans!

Read:

Look to the Lady by Margery Allingham

Excellent Intentions by Richard Hull

Harbored in Hawaii by Patti Benning

Axed in Alaska by Patti Benning

Still reading:

Four books bought – two in Foyles and two at the weekend – and two preorders dropped onto my kindle!

Bonus picture: I do love a mews. And I was wandering near work one evening last week and took this one. I could fancy living in one of these. Sadly I do not have the requisite millions!
