Hi Everyone!
I really hope you are having a great long weekend! We had a long weekend last week, and I took 1 extra day off. It was great! I'm expecting work to be very quiet tommorow, most of my accounts are US companies and I'm looking forward to catching up on some work. I had a good reading week, so I will have some reviews to post! Thank you for being so patient with me.



Here is what I got this week for review:





The Queen's Vow by Isabella of Castile

The Chaperone by Laura Moriarty (2 copies, 2 different covers)



I also did a little ebook shopping...

Hush Hush by Becca Fitzpatrick (ebook sale)

The Bellwether Revivals by Benjamin Wood

The Gods of Gothan by Lyndsay Faye

The Jeeves Collection by P G Wodehouse

The Newlyweds by Nell Freudenberger

The Uninvited Guests by Sadie Jones

    I've heard The Chaperone is really good. The Queen's Vow was in my mailbox as well! Enjoy your quiet day :)

    The Chaperone cover definitely catches my eye. From a distance I can't tell if she's very Marilyn Manson or 1920s flapper.

    The Chaperone looks intriguing, and so does The Queen's Vow. Enjoy all your new reads!

    Quite a lot of reading ahead of you. The Queens Vow and The Chaperone book look so good.

    The Chaperone is so fantastic! I love that cover to the right for the book - it fits the protagonist!

    Oooo you got Hush, Hush, I'll be interested in your thoughts on that one. I think it's one of those love it or hate it type of books. I really enjoyed book 1, but book two posed a few problems for me. I still need to read book 3!

    Nice list of books this week. I liked Hush Hush although I wasn't a fan of the books after that but I still like the first one.
    Happy reading,

    You are going to love The Gods of Gotham. It's an amazing book! I am also looking forward to The Queen's Vow as well. I love great historical fiction, and this title has been intriguing me for ages!

    I hope you enjoy The Chaperone - I read her previous novel, The Rest of Her Life, earlier this year and really liked it. The Bellwether Revivals looks great - I have it too and hope to get to it next week. And Jeeves; how absolutely spiffing!
