Weekly Catch Up: 06.02.22

Here is my weekly post each Sunday to catch up from the week before.

I will be sharing what I have been up to, what I have read, am reading and what’s up next along with other weekly catch up news.

What I have been up to this week:

I have struggled during the week with reading as I have been so tired and also had two migraines which knocked me out. Luckily I managed to catch up yesterday, so I am still on track with my plan. Work wise, there may be a chance I can still stay with my team & hopefully I will find out this week 🤞.

Reading wise, I have completed 5 books including 3 review requests/ARCs, a short story and a Children’s Book ARC.

Hoping to continue with the reading in the evenings this week, as long as I don’t fall asleep. (As always 😂).
