Recent Updates and Currently Reading | January 14

Hello, friends. I'm still in the middle of a ton of books which is fine. So far this year I'm on top of my reviews which is wonderful.

This week was birthday week for my oldest. We get a long weekend this weekend, and we have a winter storm coming. Some area schools are already delaying/closing in preparation. Our average snow fall here is zero. It's not even supposed to snow - just freezing rain - but I'm hoping for a snow day or two.

Posted Last Week

I posted two reviews. Is this a new me? I hope so!

Barbarian Alien by Ruby Dixon


The Reformatory by Tananarive Due


Not a River by Selva Almada Mislaid in Parts Half-Known by Seanan McGuire This Wretched Valley by Jenny Kiefer


The Tusks of Extinction by Ray Nayler

On My Wishlist | The Tusks of Extinction by Ray Nayler


Finished Reading



Barbarian Alien by Ruby Dixon

Barbarian Alien by Ruby Dixon ⭐⭐⭐★★ - This series is a good escape (Review | Barbarian Alien by Ruby Dixon).

The Reformatory by Tananarive Due

The Reformatory by Tananarive Due ⭐ - The best written worst book I've ever read. Highly recommended. (Review | The Reformatory by Tananarive Due)


Currently Reading


Children of Ruin by Adrian Tchaikovsky Mislaid in Parts Half-Known by Seanan McGuire The Priory of the Orange Tree by Samantha Shannon

My TBR jar has a lot of faith in me and gave me both Children of Ruin and The Priory of the Orange Tree for this month. Both are tomes in their genres.

Mislaid in Parts Half-Known by Seanan McGuire was released this past week. I'm slowly making my way through it. These books are so short in length, and I'm enjoying everything about it so far.


Added to the TBR


Mislaid in Parts Half-Known by Seanan McGuire


Mislaid in Parts Half-Known by Seanan McGuire is the 9th book in the Wayward Children series. I love this series and all of their heartbreak.

  1. I hope you have a great holiday weekend here and don't get too much bad weather. It's only going to get colder this week here and I'll break out the Minnesota clothes since I'm a wimp now that I've lived in NC for 9 years. Happy reading!

  2. I hope your daughter had a great birthday! And, I'm glad you've been able to keep up on your reviews. Sorry to hear about the weather. We've been getting quite a bit of snow in the last week but that's normal for us even if we don't like it, lol. Have a good week!

  3. We're in the middle of a huge snowstorm right now and everything is bad. Slippery roads.... we couldn't even get out of the driveway!

    Mislaid looks so good with those dinosaurs on the cover! :) I started the first book this week but am only a little ways in.

  4. I hope you do get a snow day or two. It's certainly cold here along the Texas Gulf Coast.

    I've been eager to hear about The Priory of the Orange Tree. Hope you will report back.

  7. You are on fire blogging-wise. Great start to the new year. I hope you had a lot of fun family time. Birthdays are always. a good time. The one thing I miss about teaching is snow days.
