I'm participating in The Sunday Post, hosted by The Caffeinated Book Reviewer; Showcase Sunday hosted by Books, Biscuits and Tea; Stacking the Shelves, hosted by Tynga's Reviews; and Bought Borrowed and Bagged, hosted by TalkSupe. All of these memes are about sharing the print
and digital books received and/or posts and events on the blog.
Last week got off to a good start. I enjoyed my birthday celebration with my friends, then midweek life went kablooey. This week will be mop up so the blog may be quiet. Or I may hide from the real world and busy myself with the blog. We'll see.

Oh, The troublemaker next door ! Have fun reading it, it's a fantastic series :)
ReplyDeleteUgh ... I hate when life does that. Hope you get it nice and mopped up. :) The Troublemaker Next Door is really good, and so is the rest of the series.
ReplyDeleteSorry to hear life is messing you around. Do whatever makes you feel better to get through it. I find blogging can be a great way of shutting everything else out. Whatever tactic you choose, hope everything feels better soon.
ReplyDeleteThat Chesaspeake Summer looks like a lovely summery read. Enjoy your books.
I got Day Shift as well. I haven't read the first book but it's on my shelf to read this month. Happy Reading.

Happy Belated Birthday, Bea! I'll be interested in the new Charlaine Harris book. I like the cover, but I haven't read the first book! I hope this next week is better.
ReplyDeleteHappy birthday (a bit late)! I'm glad you had a good celebration, but I'm sorry to hear life went sideways this week. I hope things calm down soon. Your new books look interesting! I've been thinking I should try Mariah Stewart, but I find myself leaning more toward fantasy and mystery in the past few months, so I will probably put it off a while longer.
ReplyDeleteSometimes a nice little break weather off the blog or just behind the scenes I always a good things and HAPPY BIRTHDAY! I hope you have a fantastic day!
ReplyDeleteEnjoy all your new reads! Have a great week Bea!!!
That Chesapeake Summer looks tempting....enjoy! Thanks for sharing...and here are MY WEEKLY UPDATES
ReplyDeleteOooo, I've been meaning to read the Midnight, Texas series by Charlaine Harris. She's been missing in my life since she gave Sookie her happy ending.

ReplyDeleteThat Mariah Stewart read looks perfect for anticipating summer:)
ReplyDeleteHappy Belated Birthday!
ReplyDeleteI'm looking forward to seeing what you think of Quiche of Death and what you think of Agatha.
Have a great week!
Happy Birthday. You got some interesting books. Curious to hear your thoughts on the Charlaine Harris book.
ReplyDeleteGrace @ Books of Love
Hi loved Homefront as well. Great review! Hope this week will be better for you. :)
ReplyDeleteI love Marie Harte's series ..the brothers were yummy and the banter was fun. Hope your week is simply spectacular!
ReplyDeleteHappy birthday! Sorry to hear how crazy things have gone, and hope they sort themselves out. I'm curious to hear your thoughts on the Charlaine Harris book --- I haven't read the first one in the series yet, but I've been considering it.
ReplyDeleteI got MStewart too. Tis the season for feel good reads. Have a good week ahead!
ReplyDeleteI hope this week proves to be better for you. I also got a copy of Charlaine Harris' latest book. I read the first one and thought it was just okay so I am hoping this second one will be better. Have a great week, Bea.
ReplyDeleteSome delicious reads here, Bea! Hope you have a good week, sweetheart, enjoy all!
ReplyDeleteForever Grace sounds good, hope you enjoy and have a good weekend.
ReplyDeleteWow! A stack of review done and a heap of new arrivals. I'm behind in my reviewing so have slowed down a little so I can catch up! I was also tied up last week so only read the one book!
ReplyDeleteDeb
I hope things go better for you this week. You got some good books to read, so busy yourself with them. :)
ReplyDeleteStormi
Sorry the rest of your birthday week wasn't so great. Hope it resolves itself quickly. I used to read Mariah Stewart when she wrote romantic suspense. The Chesapeake series looks like great summer beach reads.
ReplyDeleteI listened to an Agatha Raisin series book by MC Beaton this week. THE WELL SPRING OF DEATH. It was okay - short. But Penelope Keith was an awesome narrator!
ReplyDeleteThe Trouble Maker Next Door looks like a fun read.
ReplyDeleteHope you had a great birthday... And that things settle down for you this week!
Naomi @ Nomi’s Paranormal Palace
Great haul this week. The troublemaker next door looks awesome!
ReplyDeleteI hope you enjoy :) Happy Reading!
Here's my Weekly Wrap Up
