Just two days to go. Currently around 350 pieces to go.

Not sure if it will be completed within the month – busy couple of days ahead.

Big weekend on the challenge this week.

A busy Monday and Tuesday next week means it MUST be finished this weekend.

Probably around 800 pieces to go!

‘The Bones of You’ by Debbie Howells

Found a pack of three Debbie Howells’ novels in the cupboard that I didn’t realise I had.

This was her debut novel. A pretty standard thriller: four suspects. Who did it?

Challenge: 2000 piece puzzle.

It’s been going ok – slowly getting there. I’m halfway through the month, I’m not yet halfway through the puzzle, but I’m counting on the fact that it must get easier as you complete it.

Most of the ‘green’ and ‘interesting’ bits done. Now there appears to be a lot of ‘sky’ and ‘mountains’ and ‘trees’. 😳

February’s Challenge: 2000 piece puzzle.

Five days in and I think it’s gone ok, not entirely sure exactly how I’m doing, as in will I finish it before the end of the month. There are so many pieces the biggest obstacle to completing it is all the sorting through the bits.

For example, today I’ve probably spent about an hour pootling with it, and maybe I’ve actually put 40 pieces in place.

So it looks like this after day five…

‘The Power’ by Naomi Alderman

Again, I’m a little late reading this one. I remember it being pretty popular a few years ago.

I wasn’t that impressed. Started off really well, loved the idea of women having this power that enables them to shoot electric from their hands causing them to become the dominant sex.

The story is told through the experiences of half a dozen different characters.

It took a while for me to get through this book – not sure if it is one to recommend.
