Writing About Reading

When I started this blog, I did so as a way to get my Writer's badge. I've kept a diary for the last ten years and reckoned a blog could also count for the Diarist badge, along with a kind of embroidery log I'm doing this year. I set myself the challenge to post twice a week on average, always on the subject of badge progress but this week has passed by without an entry. It's been a really busy week and I just haven't had time. It's Sunday, I've had a lie-in, have got a few jobs out of the way and here I am.

I thought I'd do a little update on my progress towards my Reader Badge.

I'm wedded to my kindle (nine years before I needed to replace it - I find that staggering) and love everything about it except that I never know the title or author of what I'm reading. I've made an effort to screenshot my current list because a blog needs pictures, right?

My current reading is The Night She Disappeared by Lisa Jewellery. It's a go-to genre for me, a contemporary thriller, and comes highly recommended by some great writers. I'm really enjoying it.

I've recently read and enjoyed the three novels below - quirky, twisty and funny respectively.

My sister-in-law inspired me to read How to Kill Your Family, though she has no idea!

I have the next two books lined up to meet the badge criteria - a biog (I've gone auto) and a non-fiction.

I'll then get back to fiction and have bought a book written by a fellow Rebel, Eleanor Pattinson. Having read The Silent House, I know I'm going to enjoy this too.
