Historical Mysteries Reviewed – CWA Historical Dagger Awards

A few weeks ago I wrote a post about the CWA Historical Dagger Awards longlist, and my goal to read all the books on the list. By now I have actually gotten my hands on all of them, so read they will be. When, that’s the question. But here are my thoughts on the books……

CWA Historical Dagger Awards Longlist

It is starting to become a tradition… I rarely pay attention to book awards because they don’t reflect my reading taste at all. But the CWA Historical Dagger Awards do tend to get me somewhat, or at least point my attention to some new books to try out. So I check out the longlist and……

Reviews!!! The Tower of the Swallow, A Botanist’s Guide to Flowers and Fatality & The Hood

I promised more reviews, so here they are. But be warned, I didn’t really love any of these books. Some of them were fine, others not even that… I picked up The Tower of the Swallow as part of the Witcher buddyreads with Spalanz, and The Husband. And I have got mixed feelings about it.……

Reviews! The Mapmaker’s Daughter, The Fossil Hunter and Murder at Midnight

I wanted to clear my Netgalley shelf by the end of March. That is not going to happen…. but I did pick up some of the books. Which means it is review time again! I was really excited for this book (yet didn’t pick it up for months…). We follow two women in different time……

Catching up with some Netgalley reads… A Newlywed’s Guide to Fortune and Murder, Hooked and Spirit Guide

I decided that this year I won´t be doing reading goals for the whole year, but instead have shorter 3 month goals. And my first goal is to read all my Netgalley books before the end of March. Am I succeeding? Absolutely not. But I am making some progress… Which also means reviews 😀 A……

I binged the Adventures on Trains series… whilst on an Adventure on a Train!

Last Thursday The Husband and I celebrated being married for 5 years. We did so by going on holiday and wanting to make this trip a bit more special I decided to do something new: go on a sleeper train. I have been wanting to give it a go for years, Vienna has been on……

Distraction Dinsdag – 3D printed steak/Antman/Ghost of Tsushima

I’m stealing this format from The Husband… because I really should be studying right now. But I really don’t feel like it… I promised to several people to write this post, so why not use it to procrastinate? Last weekend The Husband and I gave in to the consumerist holiday that is Valentines Day and……

Some books I´ve been reading recently

This year so far hasn´t been quite what I had hoped it to be. I started it off with a holiday… which should have been lovely. But on day one I woke up with a massive headache, and I haven´t really had a headache free day since. I am also starting to stress out quite……

New year, same mess?

What’s this? A post? Yeah… don’t get used to it. December has been quite something. I DNF’ed pretty much all the books I tried to pick up, and the ones I didn’t DNF were audiobooks that ended up just being background noise. I wasn’t able to focus on anything. I also stopped tracking any of……

Hey…

So, it has been a while. I haven´t been on here for at least three weeks now, and am even further behind with reading other people´s posts. And a big part of that is lack of time… and motivation. My studies are taking over all my evenings and weekends again, and pretty anything else has……
