WHAT I HAVE READ

Ten books means I’ve gone well over my target for the year, so I’ve increased it from 52 to 80!

• Poor Stainless (The Borrowers 4.5) – Mary Norton
• Dragonfly in Amber (Outlander #2) – Diana Gabaldon
• Five Go Adventuring Again – reviewed here
• Cops and Robbers – Janet and Allan Ahlberg
• Dead in the Family (Sookie Stackhouse #10) – Charlaine Harris
• Cream Buns and Crime (A Murder Most Unladylike collection) – Robin Stevens (reviewed here)
• Immortal Nights (Argeneau Vampires #24) – Lynsay Sands
• A Touch of Dead (Sookie Stackhouse Short Stories) – Charlaine Harris
• The Secret Island – Audiobook, reviewed here
• Just One Damned Thing After Another (The Chronicles of St Mary’s #1) – Jodi Taylor

And I’ve still to finish:

• No Waste Like Home – Penney Poyzer
• Bundle of Trouble (Maternal Instincts #1) – Diana Orgain
• A Symphony of Echoes (The Chronicles of St Mary’s #2) – Jodi Taylor

WHAT I HAVE WATCHED

• Hollyoaks
• Far too much of Brodie’s new favourite, Hey Duggee, plus some Pocoyo.
• Older episodes of QI on Netflix
• The rest of Picnic at Hanging Rock
• More of season two of Outlander, and the start of season 3. Now I’ve read the second book it’s interesting to watch it with a better understanding of what’s to come.
• A little bit of Disenchantment, a Netflix original made by Matt Groening of The Simpsons.
• Series two (I think) of The Great British Menu and some of Celebrity Masterchef (though the latter is on so many nights a week it’s hard to keep up!)

WHAT I HAVE DONE

• Celebrated Brodie’s first birthday and thrown him a birthday party.
• Assembled a toy kitchen that needed 98 (!) screws.
• Enjoyed a week off work with day trips to Craigtoun Park, lunches out and a visit to family further afield.
• Found a few more penguin statues
• Taken Brodie swimming
