Hey everyone how has your week been so far? Mine has been ok. In all honesty I haven't had the motivated jump out of bed every morning week I was hoping for after my post on Monday, but sometimes life, and your body get in the way of that and just demand one more hour of sleep. And my sleeping pattern is generally a lot better than it was at the beginning of the year, thanks in no small part to a spate of really good books. So today I thought I'd share with you some of the tales I've been reading lately.

I've been saying FOREVER that I wanted books to feature a bit more on this old blog of mine, but writing full reviews just doesn't come naturally to me, and over the past couple of years reading hasn't been a daily habit. I was always a book worm as a child, and if I pick up a good book, that's it you've lost me for the next day or two. Getting into a book isn't generally a problem for me, it's more having the intention to put the time aside to read. I get distracted by blogging, or netflixing or pinteresting. And while all these things have their own merit, nothing makes me switch off like an hour or two of reading.

So lately I've made a conscious decision to make reading something offline a daily habit (thanks habit tracker) and I've built it into my night time routine. While only putting one hour aside on an evening , means I don't devour books at the speed of yesteryear (providing I stick to a strict lights out time!) it does mean they are a more regular feature in my life, and hopefully this blog too. So here is what I've been reading lately!
