FOR REVIEW:
THIS PAST WEEK IN REAL LIFE:
I got the news that I have been approved for the mutual exchange that I applied for a million years ago. So I am definitely moving, yay!
I haven't been up to much this week, the weather has been horrid,
which makes me feel horrid, so I just curl up in bed and watch lots of TV.
Some of that TV included new seasons of True Blood and Teen Wolf, both season premiers leaving a lot to be desired. Plus 2 whole new shows - Dominion and The Last Ship, I enjoyed both and look forward to the rest of their seasons.

Weekly Wrap-Up
WHAT I PLAN TO READ NEXT:
I am making no plans, because I hardly, if ever stick to them. I am mostly a mood reader, so I just pick up whatever I feel like reading in the moment.
NEXT WEEK IN REAL LIFE:
I will be signing papers for my new house and will hopefully finish up packing, so we will be all ready for the move date, which is July 19th.
I will hopefully get lots of reading done and reviews written and scheduled for each book, so when it comes to those busy moving days I won't have to worry about my blog.
How about you, my lovelies, did you have a great week with lots of reading and beautiful new books?
Good luck moving!! (We move a lot and I ALWAYS find it stressful. x) But bleh to bad weather...hate that. I get so unmotivated, although, heeeey not a bad thing when there are awesome TV shows calling to me. ;) I've been meaning to start Teen Wolf forever.
ReplyDeleteMy Sunday Post!
Thanks Cait and yes moving is soooooo stressful, I can't wait to get it over and done with.
DeleteI think I have a book by Emmy Laybourne to read, but not the same. The cover is catchy ! Great haul, have a great week !
ReplyDeleteOOh I will have to go look and see what else she has written.
DeleteHave a great week Iza.
OH, Salt and Storm! I also received it and can't wait to dive into. Hopefully we both will enjoy it! Tabula Rasa has a very intriguing cover. Gonna check it later. :) Good luck with the packing! I know it can be hectic, so awesome that you have planned posts for blog beforehand. :) Happy reading, Natalie! :)
ReplyDeleteI am really hoping we enjoy Salt and Storm too.
DeleteHave a great week Hilda :-)
Congrats on your exchange and good luck with the move. I have All Our Yesterdays too (on audio) but haven't gotten around to listening to it yet. Have a great week!

Sandy @ Somewhere Only We Know
Thanks Sandy. I am enjoying All Our Yesterdays so far, I bet it's a great audio experience
DeleteHave a great week :-)
Good luck with the exchange - where will you be moving? I did a high school exchange when I was in high school (moved from Finland to US for 10 months) and that definitely was one of the best experiences in my life so far :)
ReplyDeleteHave a good week!
My exchange isn't anywhere near as exciting as that. I am simply swapping my house with another family's house as I need a smaller house in town and they need a bigger house in the country.
DeleteHave a great week :-)
Salt & Storm and Tabula Rasa have been on my review stack for a while. They are getting nearer to the top. I hope you enjoy your move. The idea of packing is really daunting to me. I've lived in my house for about 13 years and am not good at throwing things away. Come see what I got this week at Ms. Martin Teaches Media and Inside of a Dog. Happy reading!
ReplyDeletePacking has been a nightmare, with 26 years of accumulated stuff and most of it trash.
DeleteHave a great week Kathy :-)
Good luck with the move! That's too bad about the awful weather but sometimes some downtime watching TV is always really nice! Have a great week!
ReplyDeleteYeah , I do love watching TV shows almost as much as I love reading ALMOST, so I shouldn't complain too much. But I love the sun and it mkes me sad when it goes away.
DeleteThanks Katherine you have a great week too :-)
I feel the same about the Bentwhistle book. I really wanted to like it, but just couldn't finish it!!!
ReplyDeleteThanks Wajiha, I am glad I am not alone about the book.
DeleteHave a great week :-)
How exciting, a new house - good luck with the move, it's always a bit unsettling.
ReplyDeleteIt's annoying when you think you should really like a book and just can't - I think we have all been there. I also like your idea of reading whatever you feel like without much of a plan, that is how it should be, enjoyable and relaxing.Peggy @ The Pegster Reads
Thanks Peggy - I am excited an dstressed about the moce, I can't wait till it is all over.
DeleteIt is summer after all, I should be enjoying reading and so I will.
Have a great week :-)
I'm totally a mood reader too, which makes it hard for me to plan my reads sometimes but whatever. LOL! Sky on Fire looks good, I've been eyeing that series for a while- and Salt and storm looks good too.
ReplyDeletePlanning or no planning - as long as we read, right?
DeleteI am hoping Salt and Storm is as good as it looks.
Have a great week Greg :-)
I loved All Our Yesterdays :)
ReplyDeleteI am really enjoying it so far.
DeleteHave a great week Ellie :-)
