#90 Bartimeaus: The Amulet of Samarkand - Jonathan Stroud
#91 Bartimeaus: The Golem's Eye - Jonathan Stroud
Definitely not gonna make a 2/week average but still, not bad :)
#89 The Great Gatsby - F Scott Fitzgerald
#88 Another beta read for a friend so a secret for now...
#83 The Hunger Games - Suzanne Collins
#84 Catching Fire - Suzanne Collins
#85 Mockingjay - Suzanne Collins
#86 The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes - Suzanne Collins
#87 Sunrise on the Reaping - Suzanne Collins
This has also taken longer than expected. Not because it isn't glorious! It is just such a large book, my crappy arthritic hands can only hold it for about 30 mins at a time! Pretty sure this means I will definitely not hit my (self imposed) goal of averaging 2 a week but still...
#82 Jonathan Strange and Mr Norrell - Susannah Clarke
(This is a reread but it still counts, right?)
#81 Guilty By Definition - Suzie Dent
(I have been having a rare TV binge so reading has been relegated to 2nd place in my down time. It isn't that I am struggling to finish!)
#80 The Wisdom of Crowds - Joe Abercrombie
#79 The Trouble With Peace - Joe Abercrombie
#78 is a stealth book. I am being a beta reader for a friend so cannot put it out there publicly as it hasn't been published!
#77 Red Country - Joe Abercrombie
#76 Heroes - Joe Abercrombie
I really liked them. The 'magic' needed refining, started well but became muddy but overall am enjoyable read and I will be getting more of her when I am Abercrombie'd out
#75 - Best Served Cold - Joe Abercrombie
(I just bought a job lot of JA books so they are all gonna be him for a while...)
#73 Vicious - VE Schwab
#74 Vengeful - VE Schwab
#72 Last Argument of Kings - Joe Abercrombie
#71 The Familiar - Leigh Bardugo
#69 The Blade Itself - Joe Abercrombie
#70 Before They Are Hanged - Joe Abercrombie
I was hoping for two a week but I am a shade under... do I try and push it? 🤷♂️

#64 The Phantom of the Opera - Gaston Leroux
#65 Dangerous Liaisons - Choderlos de Laclos
