Weekly roundup: Showcase Sunday #3

I'm linking up with Vicky at Books, Biscuits and Tea again this week, to take part in Showcase Sunday.



Just one book this week, Follow The Blue by Brigid Lowry, which I borrowed from the library.


The turtle's name is Nora. She lives with Eddie the dolphin, Alan the shark and Rory the triceratops at the end of the bed.
I was away this week, but managed to finally catch up on some blog reading over the weekend. I also did quite a bit of reading throughout the week: I finished Avalon High by Meg Cabot, and started and finished Agatha Christie's Cat Among The Pigeons. 


I have also (finally) re-opened my copy of A Feast for Crows, book #4 of A Song of Ice and Fire, which I put to one side a few weeks ago when I was battling against a big deadline and had no brain power left come the evening. Hopefully I can enjoy the adventures of Westeros more fully now a long weekend is stretched out in front of me!


I also read Timothy Corrigan's American Cinema of the 2000s, for a review that is pending for the academic journal I am editor of.


Reviews posted this week:
E. Lockhart, Fly On The Wall (7/10)
Meg Cabot, Avalon High (3/10)

    Hope you enjoy A Feast for Crows. It was my least favourite of the series so far but brilliant nonetheless. Hope you enjoy it! :) Happy Reading!

    Follow the Blue looks really good. A small haul is good for catching up on other books ;)

    Follow the Blue doesn't seem like my cup of tea but I'll have to admit, the cover looks adorable! Any book with mermaids sound good :)

    I love turtles too, but I adore octopuses even more. I have 3 octopuses on my bed :D

    If you are looking for some new reads, drop by my very first giveaway *urges*. There are 16 titles up for grabs :) Hope to see you there!

    Cat Among The Pigeons is such a great book! I read it twice and I thoroughly enjoyed it :) Nora is such a cutie, by the way :) x
