The Sunday Post #14

Hello readers! This has been a tough 2 weeks for me. You guys probably noticed I told you about some posts that were going out in my last Sunday Post that didn’t. I was just not feeling like writing. The only posts that went out this week and last week were pre-written ones.

I will still do the posts I missed, they will just be some time in the future. I’m not exactly feeling up to writing just yet, but I do have a few I’d like to post this week if I can. I’m not taking a big break, though!

Also, I got quite a few new followers ! Welcome if you are new here! I’ve been doing this over 3 years now and I’m almost to 250. It’s really been great being here. I’ve had some ups and downs, but I’m not going anywhere anytime soon.

The Sunday Post and the thumbnail I’m using were created by The Caffeinated Reader. In The Sunday Post, you share news each week with your audience. This can be personal, book news, blog news, or anything else you want. Click the creator’s name for more details!


Life Update:

I went to the local apple orchard. If you are in Indiana, it’s called Ditzler Orchard. We got some mutsu apples and I made it into apple cider and apple sauce. I made the cider and was thinking I didn’t want to just throw away the apples, so I made apple sauce.

I have also been quite slumpy with my reading! I read a really popular book earlier this month that just ruined my reading this month.

I got my nails done for the first time in months. I have onychophagia so it helps me to have my nails done. My husband went with me for the first time ever and he chose my nail color! He picked a glittery red because he said he wanted my nails to look like dorothy’s slippers. Here I was thinking I would go for a spooky color and they look more Christmas, but I don’t mind.

On the Blog Last Week:

Monday – Down the TBR Hole 13

Thursday – Buzzfeed Unsolved Book Tag

Friday – Let’s Talk Bookish: Nonfiction

Upcoming This Week:

On Monday, I am doing an update for my Owned TBR, Wednesday will be my November TBR, Thursday is the Halloween Song Book Tag, Friday is a Let’s Talk Bookish post, and I might do a Stacking the Shelves on Saturday, but no promises.

Reading Update:

I should be finishing The Fine Print in the next couple of days as I’m approacing the end of the month. For A Hunt So Wild and Cruel, it’s an ARC that comes out early in the month. Its the 4th book on Kenney’s Wicked Darlings series and is not connected to the others, which is unlike any of the other books.

Kill Creek is a book for a book club and I really need it done by Satufay. This book is so long though, but it’s not a bad one by any means.

On My Shelf:

I’m trying to get ahead on that GCA post I’m doing. I have decided I’m only going to read the top 10 books and I think Love, Theoretically will be up there. I just got in on Libby today, but I’m not going to start it for a few days.

After reading the first book for this project, it really put a damper on the whole thing as it made me go into a slump.

What I Watched:

As I write this, I am watching the finale of season 13 of Masterchef, so I’ll need a new show soon. I’ve also been watching the new Kitchen Nightmares show as it’s been revamped.

I’m not sure what I’ll watch next, but I’ll let you know in the next one!
