It’s been raining incessantly over the past week, so the sun hasn’t been out all that much. On the upside, that means temperatures have been more moderate at 25 to 27°C. Thankfully, the sun still shines through the clouds every now and then, adding some much needed cheer.
Hot off the Press – May 9, 2016
After last week’s massive round of new releases, this week is much more manageable. There hasn’t been too much hype around any of these books. If you’re looking for a low-pressure read, after the incredible hype that’s been surrounding A Court of Mist and Fury, here’s your chance.

Back in January I took part in Bout of Books for the very first time. While the outcome of that read-a-thon wasn’t all too stellar for me, I’ve since picked up my reading groove and am looking for a little bit of extra motivation. With that, I’m in again this round.
Project 52 – Mother’s Love
In honour of Mother’s Day, this week’s book photo challenge theme is Mother’s Love.

It’s been more than a year since I read it but what has left an impression on is the focus on women from three generations — Ava, her mother and her grandmother. It traces Ava’s present day as well as the magical history that preceded her through her mother and her mother’s mother.

On the other hand, being spoilt for choice means that we’re pretty much guaranteed to find a favourite or even a few among these.
