I'm reading
I feel like this was a good reading week. I finished Poppy's Parisian Patisserie by Daisy James, and then I went back and finished reading The Stolen Hours by Karen Swan. This was my read on a theme book club book for this month, with the theme being Scotland. The third book in the Wild Isle series has just been released so I will be keen to see how the story resolves itself.
I am also trying to squeeze one more book in before the end of Paris in July, so I started reading French Windows by Antoine Laurain.
I'm watching
If you had of told me 5 years ago that I would be happy to sit and watch multiple episodes of Gogglebox I would have laughed at you. And yet, that is exactly what I have been doing a lot of this week.

Of course, we have also been watching a fair bit of Olympics. As I type this I am watching some of the men's diving. It is a bit weird to hear one of our cricket commentators doing the commentating on the diving though.
Over the weekend we also watched The Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare, which is the new Guy Ritchie WWII movie. It reminded me a lot of the TV series we watched last year called Rogue Heroes. The movie is loosely based on true events....very loosely I would suggest.
Here is the trailer

I'm trying to watch some of the Olympics too. The time shift isn't quite as difficult as it was for the last Olympics which makes it easier. Your books, though new to me, all sound interesting. Come see my week here. Happy reading!
ReplyDeleteI haven't read a Karen Swan book yet but want to. I take it that's the one with the theme Scotland and if that is where this book is set then for sure I want to read it.
