3. Sixteen Sixty-One by Natalie Lucas £0.99

Books Swapped:
I only Swapped one book this month. Head to Readitswapit.co.uk if you’re in the UK and want to join. My username is Lipsyp1
Swap #1: Murphy’s Law by Colin Bateman for Trainspotting (never read this!) by Irvine Welsh.
ARCs/Giveaways:
I had waaaaay too many books in my NetGalley library for a while there so I’ve stayed well clear of requesting anymore.
I did receive Orbital Kin by James E. Parsons however. I follow James on Twitter and he was looking for reviewers. Looking forward to it!
*BOOK (AND COVER) OF THE MONTH*
I hope you guys enjoyed Horror October as much as I did. It’s nice to have a theme!
Glad you got Sixteen Sixty-One, I hope you find it as fascinating as I did 🙂
Thanks 🙂 It’ll probably be a while until I get round to it but looking forward to it!
