I'm participating in The Sunday Post, hosted by Kimba the Caffeinated Book Reviewer; Showcase Sunday hosted by Books, Biscuits and Tea; and Stacking the Shelves, hosted by Tynga's Reviews. These memes allow book bloggers the chance to share print and digital books
they've received, and different posts and events at their blogs.
I had a lovely, quiet, restful week off. Tomorrow is our preparation week for the new school year. We'll form into our new teams, have meetings and trainings, and get the rooms ready. I'm with the same age groups as last year so that'll be good, exhausting but good. :) Caffeine, here I come! :D
The Week In Review
Odd or interesting search phrases for the blog: It was a mild week for search phrases - "thursday coffee photos" and "lucie hiscock", neither of which ring any bells for me.

*HAPPY DANCE* I was psyched when this unexpectedly showed up in my mailbox. I love this series.
I got an eGalley from the publisher a few weeks ago but I'm also participating in a blog tour and was sent a hardcover copy by the tour publicist.

I'll do my best to get around and say hi this week; the exhaustion shouldn't kick in until next week.
I really need to start the October Daye series. I've had the first book on my TBR for a while.
ReplyDeleteHappy reading.
It's an excellent series; funny, smart, tightly written, strong characters.
DeleteGreat haul, Bea! Enjoy!

Hi Shane, thanks :)
DeleteI got Death Never Sleeps and Declan's Cross this week too. I still haven't had a chance to start Seanan McGuire's series but have the first couple of books on TBR mountain. Come see what I got this week at Inside of a Dog and Ms. Martin Teaches Media. Happy reading!
ReplyDeleteAre you going to review Death Never Sleeps? I haven't decided yet.
DeleteYou really should read the Toby Daye books, they are incredible.
Ooh, tempting stack of books! That Carla Neggers book is pulling me in....I haven't read this author, but her books are everywhere!
ReplyDeleteThanks for visiting my blog. Enjoy your week.
Neggers has a couple different series and some stand alones; she's not my fave author but I enjoy her.
DeleteWhat a lovely haul. The one with the Cat on the Cover looks like a cute read. You always get some great books.
