Hello, and welcome to our latest Sunday selfie!
This week there has been nothing wonderful here weather wise, just a cycle of wind, rain, hail, sun, then repeat.
One of the bright spots of the week has been our latest 'Read and Review' book: RED TIDE. This is by the wonderfully creative author, Curtis Jobling. We reviewed his recent middle grade horror story, WYRDWOOD, last October. And my what a fabulous read it was too, one worthy of Stephen King. And just look at that cover which features the three teenage protagonists.
This new read is about Vikings, Picts, and . . . vampires.
I won't spoil our upcoming review, but let me say this is a fantastically creative read, with modicum of humour too. It hasn't given us any nightmares, and is the first half of a mini series that has us now nicely poised and desperate for the grand and gripping conclusion.

So whilst Mrs H and I haven't got much editing work done, we have been happy to let the weather and world pass on by.
Moving on, this week's selfie is a picture Mrs H snapped on Thursday. I think I was dreaming of catnip toys and a plate full of nice tasty chicken. . . neither of which I got!
Oh well, maybe I will in my dreams. Hopefully your week has been better than ours, food wise if nothing else. And please do share what books you are reading, and if you would recommend.

That is a lovely selfie, and judging by your smile, it must have been a good dream.
ReplyDeleteI am really looking forward to your review of Red Tide, as Wyrdwood was one of the best books I have read in a very long time including my latest Stephen King's.
Actually, have you read Fairy Tale by him? It is a fairy tale, but a very dark one. Yes it is classed as horror, but not over scary or gory, more suspense and I couldn't put it down.
Princess ERin we are sorry to hear you did not get the chicken! But you certainly did get a good selfie. The book sounds interesting and will be able to looking forward to the review. Lynn is ready to start reading a book called The Cat Who Saved Books. The three kitties over at J-Cats recommended it. Our weather here since Easter Sunday has all of a sudden turned rather Pleasant in that it's been dry and sunny. We did have a few mornings where the bird baths were frozen solid but the last couple of days have been better than that.
ReplyDeleteERin, your selfie is stunning! We are sorry you didn't get any chick-hen or toys. Why not teleport over for Shimshi's birthday pawty later this week? We can guarantee both!
ReplyDeleteThat's a very sweet selfie, Erin! #1 has read several of your recommendations and enjoyed them very much!
