Happy Sunday. Luke has just gone home with his Dad and I have done a quick sweep around the house. I found a pair of his socks halfway down the hall, and his raptor in the dining room after we had been playing dinosaur hide and seek.
We have also baked cookies, caught up with all the laundry, and read lots of stories. He is starting to make up stories of his own now. I should write them down for him and illustrate them. Something to keep in mind for his next visit. Luke turns 4 next week and we’re having a birthday party for him next Saturday.
But, on to books….. I am currently reading Sally Hepworth’s The Good Sister.
Die of Shame by Mark Billingham
And listening to Pray for Silence by Linda Castillo, #2 in the Kate Burkholder series that I had somehow missed reading.
This week I am planning on reading The Whispers by Heidi Perks.
A MISSING WIFE. FOUR FRIENDS. WHO IS TELLING THE TRUTH?
Anna Robinson hasn’t been seen since she went on a night out with her four closest friends.
She has a loving husband and a son she adores. Surely she wouldn’t abandon them and her perfect life. . .
But what has happened to her?
At the school gates, it’s not long before the rumours start. Anna’s oldest friend Grace is beside herself with worry – desperately searching for answers, and certain that someone is hiding the truth.
With each day that passes, Anna’s life is under increasing threat. And a the pressure mounts, it won’t be long before something cracks. . .
I am keeping my reading load deliberately light because of my workload, but if I can, I will add a title from my backlist.
Only two new ARCs this week: Twisted Lies by Angela Marsons
And A Family Affair by Julie Houston
What are you planning on reading this week? Have a great one.
Cheers
Sandy ❤📚

It’s always fun to have little children’s birthday parties as they are so full of wonder and happiness. Happy birthday to Luke!
I’m behind in my visiting so you’ll probably get several comments posted today. I read your blog posts when they arrive in my Gmail but haven’t taken a moment to go “visit” everyone.
We are working on a kitchen remodel & need to vacate the house soon. Yikes!

I missed this post, Sandy, but glad I am getting caught up. I think writing his stories down is a great idea. I wish I had done that with my oldest grandson, he told some great stories. I love where you found his dinosaur, so much fun.

We have him again this weekend, Carla. The weather forecast is not great so it will be inside activities. A good time to get started. 😊❤
