More cold and wet so naturally more reading to be had. Though I seriously need to do some catching up with my blog posts before the mad rush of spring and summer arrive and I'm madly gardening once again.
Ahhh comfort reads. My favourite. These 3 were just the thing for the warm and cozies. Definitely something we all need, especially at this time of year.
Of course once the warm and cozies were done it was time for some thrillerish thrills courtesy of 2 sci-fi's and 1 actual thriller.
All caught up with my thrills and comfort I felt like reading something a bit different and so I did a major dive into history books and bios, something that I use to read a lot of but have steered mostly away from for the past several years.
Finding some history books that I like the sound of took a bit of hunting but in the end I came up with this selection, all of which I enjoyed in different ways.
While I've been doing all this reading I've also still been working my way through my audios. Doing jigsaws and having an audio to listen at the same time has been my latest thing this winter and a perfect way to wile away the day when it's freezing cold outside.
That. And eating cake and drinking lots of hot chocolate.Both the Ravenous series and the Stranded series have been a bit up and day with their stories.
Some stories I have really enjoyed. Others... not so much. I definitely like the more darker, scarier ones than the silly, lighthearted ones which probably says a lot about my brain.
Still the acting and the characters have been top notched so I've still liked them, just not perhaps as much as the earlier series which were so amazingly good.
I'm now curious as to how the future series will go and whether the quality of the stories will carrying on being up and down.
A tag on to these Doctor Who series was Robots featuring the always excellent Nicola Walker. As a fan of hers and her character it was great getting stuck into a series of her own and one I'm looking forward to carrying on with.
