Check out the The Caffeinated Book Review for the Sunday Post
It's Monday! What Are You Reading is hosted by Kathryn at Book Date
This week has been so gross hot! I am ready for fall. Wyatt's definitely in his "terrible twos" and while is still his sweet little self, also can throw some mammoth tantrums! It's been crazy. Lol. It's all part of learning and growing, I know, but still - it doesn't make it easier at times. Lol. I am sure he doesn't like this weather either.
I had a very productive blogging week! I posted three times here on QM, and then three times on my other blog, Still Life, With Cracker Crumbs. I don't think I will get there this week, not enough prep over the weekend this weekend, but I am pretty excited.
Read Last Week:
I am still reading this book - I am about 75% of the way through it. I am taking my time with it. It is so good! And I love this cover.
Reading This Week:
Finishing up The Witches of New York. I will also be starting
Yay! I am so excited!! I love Hoffman's books - I am looking forward to starting this one!
Received this week for review:
I've paged through A Charm of Goldfinches and love it already! I loved Sewell's Owls book, so I am looking forward to this new one.
Posted Last Week:
That's about it from my world this week - how are you doing?
I really, really need to try Kristin Higgins soon! I've heard so many good things. It looks like you have lots of great reading ahead of you. Enjoy!
ReplyDeleteI have loved her last two books - I have high hopes for this one!
DeleteOh, the tantrums. My youngest was a screamer. Hang in there, mama! Great job on posting. I've been struggling with that so much lately.
ReplyDeleteLol thanks! It's always a little startling when he launches into the tears! Lol. :)
DeleteIts been crazy hot here too (90's) and I am ready for it to be over! Sorry about the tantrums. I don't know how moms and dads handle it all without losing their minds!
ReplyDeleteUgh here too! I hate it!I know in the middle of winter I will seeing all the different colors rather than white and gray, but I am so ready for fall.
DeleteAnd we do lose our minds! Lololol. :)
Ooo I've been wanting to read The Witches of New York for ages now-- I've heard such good things about it :)
ReplyDeleteIt is so good! It's a great book to end September with.
DeleteIt was way too hot this week! I want to have a tantrum too! :) I guess it's gonna be like this through Wednesday?
ReplyDeleteTerrible two's- ha- I don't miss that stage!!
Have a super week!!!
It really is disgsuting out! I will be waiting for Wednesday for sure this week - or Thursday. Bring on fall, I say!
DeleteYeah, this stage is a bit nuts! Lol.
Thanks!
I'm glad you had such a productive blogging week :) I've finished The Rules of Magic this week! I really liked it. I hope you like it too :) beautiful writing from Hoffman, as always.
ReplyDeleteHope you have a great week :)
Thanks! I have been working on trying to be more organized and slowly its all coming together.
DeleteOo I am glad to hear it!! I am pretty excited about it.
I keep seeing Now That You Mention It. I may have to check that one out. Come see my week here. Happy reading!
ReplyDeleteI never really read Higgins, and then I read her latest two, and loved them. I am looking forward to this one. :)
DeleteThe Rules of Magic is coming up next on my NetGalley ARC list. Enjoy!
ReplyDeleteI read and loved the first book in the Haven Point series, so Sugar Pine Trail is on my list.
Enjoy your week, and here are
MY WEEKLY UPDATES
We seem to be in the same cycle of books every week, back and forth! Lol. I can't wait to begin Rules of Magic, but I just need to finish Witches first. (which is really good as well)
DeleteI love the Haven Point series. There is another series she has, but HP is my favorite. :)
I'm adding A Charm of Goldfinches and Now That You Mention It to my wishlist. Come see what I'm reading
ReplyDeleteOh boy, temper tantrums. I don't miss those days. My tween was the worst. She would scream, cry, and kick the walls in her room in the SF apt until her dad opened the door and yelled at her. The youngest didn't throw tantrums; she would just stomp off. Watch out, some say 3's are the new 2's.
ReplyDeleteDo be verbal about The Witches of New York book. I'm so drawn to it as witches have a special place in my heart. Have you read Deborah Harkness's All Souls Trilogy. To me, it was like an intellectual Twilight. I loved it and is one of the very few, Kindle books I own.
How did I miss this? Sorry! Oh my goodness - these tantrums are crazy. Lol. It's so hard to be 2 and unable to express yourself! I feel for him but holy moly. Lol.
DeleteI love books about witches as well. I have read the All Souls Trilogy! I really enjoyed it too. Have you read The Thinking Woman's Guide to Magic? That is one of my favorite books ever, I think. I love it.
The Witches of New York has an intriguing cover. I've not heard about it, but I might have to go look for it. Girl Who Reads
ReplyDeleteIt was really good. I hope there is a follow up!
