Sunday Book Share #61

 
 

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.

Last week started well but went downhill about the middle of the week on; my back gave out and then I had multiple, and expensive, car problems. My back is doing better now, and the car goes in next week for the first of several repairs. On a better note, the blog was busy last week, very busy!

    These books are all new to me...but I can definitely relate to both back and car problems! Nothing else can ruin a week as much...IMO. Although I am sure there are other disasters....

    Hope everything works out. Enjoy your week, and here's MY WEEKLY SUNDAY/MONDAY UPDATES

      Yep, car problems especially are a PITA though there certainly are worse disasters.

      Have a good week!
