This is is Meme hosted by Kimba @ Caffeinated Book Reviewer and here are the rules.
It is your chance to re-cap your bookish week, what did your review last week, any new purchases, what will be coming up in your blog next week or generally anything you feel you would like to share with the blogging community.
So, What did I do last week?
February is almost over, can you believe it? This week, the children were on half-term holiday here, but luckily my children are now old enough so they don't need a childminder. Only my daughter still goes to senior school, my middle son is in college (he wants to become a civil engineer), and the eldest son is working in retail at the moment. He has applied to join the Royal Air Force and we are currently awaiting his interview.
I'm still, as ever, very busy at work. Oh, how I wish I had more time for my books. I did not get any books this week because I really wish to get ahead with some of the books, especially the review ones which I received from Twitter and via the blog. I don't apply for ARC yet, and didn't even look for free books… But I keep looking lovingly at my books from the book club, taking them out one by one and putting them back in the box. :)
My Blog last week:
