Sunday Post: Weekly Wrap-Up (11/05/14)

The Sunday Post is a weekly meme hosted @ Caffeinated Book Reviewer. It’s a chance to share news. A post to recap the past week, showcase books and things we have received and share news about what is coming up on our blog for the week ahead.

THIS WEEK ON MY BLOG:

It's Monday! What are you reading?

WHAT I READ THIS WEEK:

Dreams of Gods and Monsters by Laini Taylor

I think I am in a bit of a reading slump, as Dreams of Gods and Monsters is the only book I have read this week and at the time of writing this, I am still reading it. If it wasn't such a highly anticipated read, I don't think I would be reading anything at all.

ADDITIONS TO MY TBR THIS WEEK:
Stacking the Shevles hosted @ Tynga's Reviews





PHYSICAL

Z for Zachariah by Robert C. O'Brien

This is one of the two books that I remember reading in school, the other one being Animal Farm. This book has stuck with me for the past 20ish years and I have been meaning to buy it for a while but never got around to it. It is being made into a movie, starring my future husband Chris Pine, and I am super excited about that, so I finally did buy it and I can't wait to read it again. I hope it has the same effect on me now as it did when I was a teen.

THIS WEEK IN REAL LIFE:

Finally started taking exam revision seriously and now I am scared.

On a positive note I saw both Divergent and Captain America: The Winter Soldier again and they were both equally as good the second time around. My friend who I went to the movies with, has not read the Divergent book but she really enjoyed it, loved Four and hated Peter, and she now wants to read the books.

Oh, and I finally got to see The Vampire Academy movie and haha, I am glad I did not go to the cinema to see it. I will say no more because some people loved it.

NEXT WEEK ON MY BLOG:

As this week, I don't really have the time to write reviews right now, because as you know, they take lots of brain power, thinking, writing and rewriting.  So I will just be sticking to simple meme posts and scheduling them in advance.

Waiting on Wednesday: Hansel and Gretel
