Reading RoundUp #31

It's Monday, What Are You Reading? is hosted by Sheila at Book Journey This is a great way to plan out your reading week and see what others are currently reading as well… you never know where that next “must read” book will come from!

My reading round-ups seem to be appearing monthly these days, you'd think this would mean more news but I'm not sure that's right! I've just spent nearly ten days away from home at my sister's where I got a pitiful amount of reading done but it was so nice to be able to spend extra time with Frem! Whilst in Reading I had a few trips up to London, I almost got to meet Sean Cummings (author of Poltergeeks & Student Bodies) but sadly didn't manage this due to time constraints and other plans. I did get to meet this author -


Patrick Ness is a genuinely nice chap, I had a great time and thoroughly enjoyed his talk and can't wait to see him again in a couple of weeks at another event. At the Patrick Ness signing I also spotted another familiar face, the lovely Laure Eve, who I've been semi-stalking on Twitter and her blog. Make sure you all buy her book, Fearsome Dreamer, due out next month and featuring on next week's WoW! Tomorrow night I'm off to Bath for an event at Toppings Bookshop arranged by SFX featuring Samantha Shannon, I can't wait to hear more about how she came up with The Bone Season and to finally pick a finished copy of the book.

Anyway, back to the books!
