Sunday Summary – 30th March 2025
Happy Sunday friends – happy Mother’s Day to all you wonderful and amazing women out there… But especially to my mum! Yes, I’m biased, but this is my corner of the Internet so I’m allowed to be…Today’s Sunday Summary post comes after a bit of a break. I decided to take most of this week off from blogging so I could enjoy the end of some annual leave I had taken from work. However, it was also so I had time for some of my other hobbies. Overall, reading progress has been a bit slower, with today being a bit of an exception to the rule.
Shall we take a look?
Books Read
Calamity
The only book I’ve progressed with this week is my audiobook listen of Calamity by Brandon Sanderson.
I didn’t pick up this book until around midway through this week once I was back to work. Before today I had only listened to a little less than two hours of this audiobook. Today, however, I’ve listened to over five hours solid!
In fact, as of this Sunday Summary post I only have 50 minutes left of this audiobook until completion. Given where we’re at in the storyline too, this will absolutely be finished in the next day or so! I’m at the final confrontation, or so I gather, so I’m excited to see how the book ends!
Books Discovered
On Thursday this week, I received a recommendation for a book called The Marriage Portrait. It has a bit of a feminine emphasis, or to use the recommender’s words, was more of a woman’s story. Having looked at the book, I’m familiar with some of the characters from history and I’m intrigued to take a look at it for myself.
Coming Up…
It feels like only five minutes ago we were starting 2025. However, next week it’s the beginning of April already. I’m going into a busy period at work, which is why I wanted a bit of a break from the blog beforehand. That’s not going to stop me from my usual schedule now I’m back.
Firstly, I’ll be sharing my monthly wrap-up for March 2025 on either Tuesday or Wednesday next week. In this post, I look back at the books I’ve read throughout the month just gone and catch you up with my reading progress versus my monthly TBR.
Next on the agenda will be my monthly TBR for April, which will go live on Friday. If you’re keen to see which books I intend to pick up in the next month, this post is to look out for.
On Sunday, there’s a slight change of schedule in that Sunday’s post will be a blog tour for Enemies of the Crown by Peter Gibbons. Taking part in this blog tour was a natural choice, as I’ve already read the prior books in the series to date and I would want to keep up with it anyway.
Then, in the early hours of Monday morning, I’ll schedule my Sunday Summary post to go live.
That’s all for me in today’s Sunday Summary – I hope you’ve had a good one and thanks for reading!
