This week has been interesting, still on the lookout for job hunting, but I have some interviews this week. I am not too worried about jobs though, I have two more weeks of PTO coming, but I hate being at home not working, I am going stir crazy. haha But hopefully I can find something good soon.

Reading has been really great this week, really devouring audiobooks this past week. With all the job hunting, I am breezing through them right now. And I am almost finished with getting caught up on all my backlogged books to be reviewed on Netgalley.

Currently Reading

This is one of the few that are left for my backlisted books to review for Netgalley. And lucky enough I found it at my local library. And I do like these inked contemporary romance themes. And I have heard some good things about this author I am intrigued by.

Currently Listening

Highland Gladiator is a book I have been needing to read so badly, but when I saw that Brad Wills narrates this one (he is one of my favorites to listen to for historical audiobooks) I knew I wanted to listen to it.

    That’s great that you have a little cushion while you job hunt. Good luck with your interviews and your search! I am so scared to read the Hoang book. The reviews are all over the place, but maybe it will be ok for me, since I have set expectations for the type of story it is. Maybe. Hope you enjoy it

    Good luck on the interviews this week, Renee! You’re really cranking out those backlog book reviews – go you! I hope Highland Gladiator ends up being a hit for you. It’s always extra special when a favorite narrator is involved.
