#NeverGonnaHappen

Weekly Forecast | Thomas Gibson Inc

Not sure why I even bother making up a #WeeklyForecast ~ I suck at keeping to it 🙄

However, this week‘s forecast holds promise as 2 books are from the library (Midnight Library & Let‘s Pretend) , 2 are #ARCs ( Buses & The Plot) and 2 have been sitting on my coffee table for a month ( Removed & Outlawed) & my son challenged me to read them before the month is over... #ChallengeAccepted

Kalalalatja Ha! Whatever works to keep you motivated 😉 4y
LeahBergen Yeah. Forecasts don‘t work for me, either. 😆 4y
Cinfhen I feel like a true meteorologist @LeahBergen @Kalalalatja I‘m only correct 20% of the time 😂😂and yeah, my son knows my weaknesses 😉 4y

TrishB I feel like it‘s the one area in life where going totally off plan is 100% acceptable 😁 4y
Megabooks I still think about The Removed. I wasn‘t a fan of the mythology, but I was a fan of the familial relationships. 4y
Cinfhen I‘m pretty sure I can tackle both the #BoTM @Megabooks @TrishB they are on the slim slide the others I‘m not so sure about.... 4y
Crazeedi Its awesome your son has challenged you! That always gives some motivation 4y
Cinfhen He was more teasing me then “challenging” me @Crazeedi but it‘s the push I needed 4y
rockpools Are you seriously telling me we‘re supposed to stick to our forecasts?? 😳😜 #NeverGonnaHappen. I do like the cover for Outlawed. Enjoy WHATEVER you end up reading. 4y
Cinfhen I aim too @rockpools I‘ve been listening most of the day to this one...very #Googley 4y
rockpools @Cinfhen It looks great! I‘ve never read SMK but I feel like she‘s been on my radar for ever! 4y
Cinfhen I‘ve really enjoyed ALL the books I‘ve read by her @rockpools I‘m enjoying this one!!!! 4y

Unrealistic #WeeklyForecast

Top Row: in progress
Jo Malone - surprisingly interesting.
Helen MacDonald ❤️💙❤️
P&P for #pemberlittens
Ian Rankin - we all need a grumpy ex-detective in our lives!

Bottom Row: ARCs that are/will be overdue last/this week.

Taking part in @sprainedbrain ‘s #NetGalleyReviewathon this month - I think I only need to get through 3 to get to 80%. Or maybe 4...
Then I could tackle the backlog 🤣🤣#nevergonnahappen

Cinfhen I‘m not sure what my auto approval is these days 🙄every time I get it in some sort of good standing I go ahead and mess it up 4y
rockpools @Cinfhen Review one, reward myself by requesting two - and the publishers have the gall to APPROVE them! It‘s all very odd! So yeah. 4y
Cinfhen EXACTLY 4y

TrishB I always like to have a grumpy detective in my reading life 😁 4y
rockpools @TrishB I‘m really enjoying this one! Particularly appreciating the lack of ‘ick‘ Have you read the other Rebus novels? 4y
TrishB I started them earlier this year, I think I‘m up to number 4 or 5. 4y
rockpools @TrishB Obviously I started them mid-series 😁. Can I ask - are they relatively low-gore in general? 4y
TrishB I‘m not very good at that question because gore doesn‘t generally both me. They‘re certainly not on a Karin Slaughter level. I think they‘re pretty low gore and it‘s always the investigations that are the story. Tagged @Cathythoughts because she‘s reading the series too. (edited) 4y
rockpools @TrishB Thanks. Think I‘m getting worse in my old age - can sometimes cope with it and sometimes not. I‘ll avoid Karin Slaughter and may start at the beginning with these 😊 4y
Cathythoughts Thanks @TrishB Yes I‘m meant to starting #5 in Rebus soon ... I think they are low-gore ... I think I read that he did write more gore originally, but then rethought it & decided it‘s not necessary & he wasn‘t comfortable with it anyway.... I‘m loving him ❤️ 4y
rockpools @Cathythoughts Thanks Cathy - that‘s really good to know. For some reason I‘d put him in the ‘probably best avoided‘ category, but I‘m really enjoying this one - wanted to check it wasn‘t a lucky fluke! 4y
Cathythoughts I know , I wasn‘t drawn to him at all. But, very pleasantly surprised to love him.... 4y

Here we go! My extremely well-thought out #MarchTBR.

#nevergonnahappen

It's St David's Day, so Travels in an Old Tongue has to be on there. It's been on my tbr since 2001. Maybe this will be the month...

The others may have slightly more chance of getting read!
