The Report: Okay, so here we are, D Day. Report day for The Hungry Readers games. Okay. So In my defence, it’s been a Bit Of A Week. I realised at the start of the week I was putting out The Greatest of Enemies and put it out, we had a mini ‘everything’s falling apart day’ in relation to homeschool, we’ve continued trying to convert the garden from being a building site, I’ve been telling the kids they can’t look at screens so I’ve tried not to be a hypocrite (didn’t work, I was called out on the fact that I sit on my Kindle/phone while they’re busy ‘at school’) … Yes, I know, I’m stalling. I’ll get on with it. So I don’t have a problem with how much I read: I read two books
- Coming Home to Heritage Cove by Helen Rolfe (242 pages) Read between the 5th and 6th of June
- When Life Gives You Lemons by Fiona Gibson (400 pages but my god did not feel like it!!! Read between the 4th to 6th June)
- Today I will be reading The Midwife Crisis by Lyndsey Gallagher which I have just started but am LOVING! I won’t get to blog it, but will tweet and instagram (is that a verb?) when I finish (216 pages)
I suppose my problem is more what I DIDN’T do.
- Download the Kindle app to track what I was reading (in my defence my phone was crammed full, it’s going to have to go onto somewhere else next week
- Learn instagram (covers eyes) Have only joined but am happy to be at 85 followers!
- Tweet/ facebook/instagram as I went
- Write a blog post for Fiona Gibson’s book (I’ll post next week about it)
- Get my you-know-what together!
So I guess I’ll aim to do better next week (although as I said I’m happy with what I read and enjoyed every last word of all books!) And I’m happy to accept my points (no roll of the dice this week!!)
