Monthly Summary and Plans for the Future

It’s been a long time since I did a monthly summary post so this is a nice reminder of all the fantastic books I’ve read over the last few months. I’m sorry that I haven’t been blogging much recently – I’ve been busy embracing my new life in the countryside.

Holly, my Pyrenean Mountain Dog puppy, has grown a lot since I last posted a picture. She’s now 10 months old and is maturing into a gentle giant. Here she is “sitting” at the table!

I’m also very proud of my chickens – especially my Barbezieux cockerel as this breed of chicken is very rare in the UK. Barbezieux are supposed to produce the tastiest roast chicken in the world. I’m hoping to breed them next year, so will let you know if that is the case! The American Game chickens breed is also an excellent choice for someone looking for a free range flock of poultry.

Books I’ve Reviewed:

A Mother’s Reckoning by Sue Klebold 
The Adversary by Emmanuel Carrère 
Miss Jane by Brad Watson 
Lie With Me by Sabine Durrant 
The Castle of Inside Out by David Henry Wilson 
Eleanor Oliphant is Completely Fine by Gail Honeyman 
The Night Visitor by Lucy Atkins 
The Barrowfields by Phillip Lewis

Plans For the Future

I plan to continue blogging, but at a much slower pace than I did previously. I’m no longer reviewing every book I read; instead, I’ll concentrate on those I really love – or ones which are interesting to discuss.

Many thanks for continuing to follow my blog. I hope I can introduce you to more fantastic books over the coming years!

Came looking for you and discovered you’re busy with animals and a country lifestyle, sounds wonderful! I hope you’ve not (animals included) been suffering too much from the cold front that’s passing over.

Happy Reading and enjoy the new found freedom, in life and in reading!

Hello Claire! It’s great to hear from you. Yes, all good here – although I do prefer it when I don’t have to defrost my animal’s water every hour!!! I’ll be popping back into the blogging community every so often and I hope to see you around for many years to come 🙂
