September wrap up and October TBR



September has been a really poor reading month for me.

I only managed to read one book which was Where the past begins by Amy Tan of which I gave 3.5 stars.  I love Amy's writing but I found it more difficult to read this memoir than her novels which I love.

I don't know why I've struggled with reading this month other than I've been watching more TV when I get home from work.  It may be that the nights are drawing in and I just want to get cozy and relax but not to engage my brain too much.  I'm just hoping that this month is a blip in my reading.  I am one book away from hitting my good reads target of 60 books  read in 2019, so it is not as if I am feeling the pressure to hit that target.

In terms of my October TBR , I am going to try and read the books I hoped to read in September.

I have already started to read Everything Under by Daisy Johnson
English Animals by Laura Kay
Life after Life by Kate Atkinson

I also have Practical Magic by Alice Hoffman to read for the Laurenandthebooks Patreon Bookclub choice for October.

I also have a lot of Halloween themed Cozy Mystery type books on my Kindle so if I do have a good month I hope to read at least one of those by the end of the month.


Wishing you happy readings in October

Love Lesley xx

Kiwillow Reads

Let me introduce myself and my blog Kiwillow Reads. My name is Lesley and I am a 40 plus book lover with a passion for all things bookish. I am married to Mr A and we have three beautiful cats Kiwi, Willow and Eric.  Kiwillow comes from the names of my two female cats. (Sorry Eric, but couldn't find a way of incorporating you). I live in the West Midlands, England, and I work in an office for a national distribution company. I have loved books all my life and the love of books was instilled into me from a very early age.  I can remember being told that I went missing when I was about two years old and my parents found me about three streets away in our local library.  Another time, I went missing and they found me in another library about one mile away from my house.  You would have thought I would have ended up as a librarian, and sometimes I often think that should have been my career. I have thought about creating a book related blog for a long time. ...
