Sunday Post #37


The Sunday Post is hosted by Kimberly @ Caffeinated reviewer book blog, and is a post to recap my bookish and non-bookish things from the last week.

After we got back from Sacramento I ended up getting sick feeling off on Monday and Tuesday and then pretty wrecked on Wednesday to the point I called in sick. Fever and body ache which turned into stuffy nose and cough.  Good times.  I slept a lot on Wednesday and worked a short day on Thursday, but I feel a lot better, but I'm still stuck with stuffiness and a cough. It's been pretty hot this weekend, but not as bad as last. I got some pool time reading at home this weekend which was really nice. 

Read:



I did a buddy read with Genesis @Whispering Chapters of Good Guy and I loved it! Hard to go wrong with Kate Meader.  I know I'll always have a good time with Carolyn Brown's romances and Cowboy Rebel didn't disappoint. It started slow, but had more suspense and danger than I've read in any of her books before. I was on the edge of my seat there for a while!  The Right Sort of Man was engaging mystery set in Post World War II.  I look forward to the next installment. 

Received/Purchased/Library Lend:



My library audio copy finally came through for Three Mages and a Margarita.  I've seen a lot of love for this series so I can't wait to start listening.  A Cowboy Under the Mistletoe sounded good. I can never resist a sexy cowboy story!  It's been a while since I've picked up Suzanne Wright, but her shifter stories are fun and hot! 

Watched:


Still binging (and laughing).

How was your week?
