Weekly Reads Round Up: Favorite Read of the Week
I post reviews on Instagram and Goodreads. What have you read this week?
The Queen’s Faithful Companion: A Novel of Queen Elizabeth II and Her Beloved Corgi, Susan by Eliza Knight
About the Book:
From USA Today bestselling author Eliza Knight comes an endearing and vivid novel told from the unique multi-narrative viewpoints of a young Queen Elizabeth; Hanna Penwyck, the fictionalized Keeper of the Queen’s dogs; and Susan, the Queen’s Corgi, whose love and loyalty were boundless.
My Review:
This was an absolutely charming read. I grabbed it on audio and I loved having it in my ears. I’m a huge dog lover and I think I had a silly smile on my face. Highly recommend the author’s note at the end because it’s fun to see what is based on fact and what fictions she added. A clever and heartwarming read.
What I’m Reading & Listening to Now:
Reading: The Loathe Boat by Cindy Dorminy
Listening: Murder on the Menu (The Bad Girls Detective Agency #3) by Katie Marsh
Week in Review:
This week felt like a billion days long! Work, meetings and appointments filled our days. My daughter did get her braces off, and she’s so excited. Today we did laundry and took apart my daughter’s loft bed because she gets a new bed tomorrow. It will be so fun when it’s all finished, but we are at the stage of the project where everything is everywhere! We had a brief warm-up weather-wise this week and now it’s so cold again. I enjoyed breakfast this morning with a friend I hadn’t seen since August.
Something I’m Looking Forward To:
Sunday night our book club meets. The week ahead is full of many meetings and activities that involve me driving kids places. In my effort to be intentional about scheduling things I look forward to, I have decided to attempt making bread next weekend. I found a very basic recipe online. I’ve never tried this and thought it might be fun to set aside some time and learn. I also preordered a copy of Onyx Storm by Rebecca Yarros, which is book three in her Empyrean Series. I loved book one, Fourth Wing and am reading book two, Iron Flame bit by bit now.
