The Sunday Post - a kind of catch-up chat - is hosted by Kimba here: http://caffeinatedbookreviewer.com/ and It's Monday! What are you reading? Is hosted by Kathryn here: http://bookdate.blogspot.co.nz/
Let's see .... I blogged! And not just a Sunday post! I rattled off some very quick sanctuary musings: https://lifetheuniverseandcats.blogspot.co.nz/2016/05/sanctuary.html That's all though.
I need to do a short reviews post, as I now have .... seven, SEVEN??? books to write up reviews for. Yeah ... definitely going to do a short reviews post for those. I got sucked into the All for the Game trilogy by Nora Sakavic, and when I say "sucked in" I mean I bought the ebooks and then read the whole trilogy in three days. It's not for everyone, but I really, really enjoyed it.
I haven't picked up Royal Assassin since last weekend. Yesterday I took spawn to see Captain America: Civil War and then to the gaming store afterward. We both enjoyed the movie and it's the first truly long movie he's sat through so that's something to celebrate. :)
I'm still picking at Perdido Street Station, and also The Girl With all the Gifts, because I keep getting distracted. I do have Lord of the Shadows by Jennifer Fallon lurking in the background, and once I read that - the Second Sons trilogy will be the first series I finish in what I boldly declared in January was the Year of the Series. Ah, youth.
So that means that book three of the Dark Tower is ALSO coming up for me very soon. :D
I also got some books from Book Depository last week, including some bookmarks to be coloured in, which is a great idea with the whole colouring trend being what it is right now.
How about you?
How's your week?
What are you reading?
Nice sanctuary post. I can relate- when I played LOTRO or Star Wars The Old Republic it was nice just to visit a world that didn't involve work and RL problems. Gaming is pretty good for that. :) Plus it's a heck of a lot more imaginative than our world.
ReplyDeleteGlad to hear Captain America was good.
I enjoyed the Sanctuary post as well and could relate.
ReplyDeleteI'm usually very monogamous on the book front. One book at a time (unless it's an audio book I only listen to when travelling) but I'm about to embark on a non fiction book (which I rarely read) so it might take me a while....
Greg: That's it exactly. It was really good, I really enjoyed it!
ReplyDeleteDeborah: Thank you! I try to be but it never seems to work out for me ...
Reading the whole trilogy in one gulp is a sign of a good series, I think!

Deb: it really did hook me in!
DeleteI love to cross stitch! I haven't done it in months, I have been too busy. I need to look into this challenge...
ReplyDeleteHappy Reading! <a href="http://paulettespapers.com/?p=10777”>Dani @ Paulette’s Papers</a>
Dani: you should! Look up craftinggeek on Instagram or search the #30for30crafting hashtag on there. Lots of inspiration!
DeleteI need to do my own 30 for 30. I have an almost complete project that I need to get back to.
