The Sunday Post is a weekly meme hosted by Kimba @ 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 for the week on our blog…
Mailbox Monday is the gathering place for readers to share the books that came in their mailbox during the last week. Warning: Mailbox Monday can lead to envy, toppling TBR piles and humongous wish lists….
Maybe TMI but in the midst of being busy with work and family these past few months, I had to have a root canal. A painful complicated one that involved two one and a half hour long visits to a specialist who gave me THREE shots of Novocain per visit, a round of antibiotics and prescription painkillers which after taking just one pill I decided to stick to Advil forever. I’m glad it’s over and done with and I hope to never have to go through that again in this lifetime or the next.
Anyway, on a good note, work announced the hybrid schedule is permanent so I am happy about that. It’s great working from home a few days a week then driving into the office a few days. I’m finding it a nice balance.
And I was finally away on vacation recently doing alot of this which was very relaxing:

Onto my bookish updates…..
recently on the blog:

I shared my thoughts on Sarana and the Dark King by Ivy Keating.

I reviewed The Four Winds by Kristin Hannah.
In my mailbox:

After loving The Four Winds by Kristin Hannah I ordered The Great Alone by the same author.
I received The Bookshop Murder by Merryn Allingham via Bookouture, The Santa Suit by Mary Kay Andrews via St. Martin’s Press and Neon Gods by Katee Robert via Sourcebooks Casablanca.



I purchased The Power by by Naomi Alderman and this fun bookish tote at the coziest little Indie bookstore I found while on vacation. It was a little book cabin and the owner was very nice.

I crocheted a coffee cup coaster and cozie for my cubicle.

I finished up my son’s blanket. I made this for him as one of his birthday gifts in May.

watching:
We watched all 3 Thor movies and are watching the Avengers films next so we can watch the new Loki series. Have you watched any of these?
That wraps up my updates, what are you up to? What are you reading? Otis says enjoy your weekend and stay safe 🙂
