The Sunday Post was created by Kimberly @ Caffeinated Reviewer this is a post where we recap the going on's on the blog the previous week and the week coming up as well as the awesome books we have received for review, brought or gifted.
How has your week been? Mine has been eventful, setting the fire alarm off in work, having to use my first aid for real, buying all the books. An eventful week. Hopefully this week isn't as eventful. I celebrate 5 years blogging this Wednesday, 5 YEARS!!!! Where has the time gone!! Look out for a celebration post and giveaway on Wednesday. This week I had some fun posts. I especially enjoyed introducing a new monthly feature, my numbers ones which will be number ones other than bookish things I enjoyed in the month.
So let's see what happened this week on the blog:
This week:
This week I have my February wrap up, my 5 year blogoversary post with a giveaway, a long over due waiting on Wednesday, First Nights Review and a game of Kiss, Marry, Cliff.
Note: I currently have a Twitter Giveaway happening, hop over to win here
To the books:
Wildfire in his arms is the second book in a series. I won a paperback of this book VIA Headline Eternal's Twitter. It's a western romance that actually sounds pretty good. Unspeakable is one I went to buy before but never did so when I saw it again and only for £2 I had to pick it up. It sounds very emotional and is a LGBT book.
I received an ARC of Kill The Boyband VIA Macmillan this is released in the UK in May. This just sounds like such a fun read.
Fangirl I have been wanting to pick up for so, so long. I own Attachments and Carry On by Rainbow Rowell but have always been drawn to Fan girl so I am excited for Fan girl to be my first Rainbow Rowell book. How to be single I picked up because the movie looks hilarious and I really want to see if the book is the same.
Finally I picked up Room that just sounds so harrowing and intriguing. I know this is a Oscar nominated movie and is crucially acclaimed. I think this will be a tough read but worthwhile.
Let me know how your week has been in the comments below.
Hey happy 5 years! I like the sound of your Number Ones of the Month, great idea. Will have to check that out...
ReplyDeleteEnjoy Fangirl...
Congrats on five years of blogging! Doesn't the time fly when we're having fun?
ReplyDeleteI enjoyed Fangirl...and How To Be Single. I hope to love Room. The movie was excellent, IMO.
Thanks for sharing...and for visiting my blog. Happy reading!
Happy anniversary for this week.
ReplyDeleteI hope next week isn't as action-packed as this one has been for you!
BTW, I loved Room. I loved Jack's voice (as the narrator). It's possibly my favourite book ever!
Wow! Five years? Congrats! (Mines still a baby lol) When I worked at the bookstore, I constantly saw the book Room and I was at once completely intrigued but also very nervous to read it. As an only child to a single moth, I could not imagine and I think my emotions would get the better of me and I don't like that lol So while I hope you enjoy it, I do not think I would be able to handle it!
ReplyDeleteHappy 5 years! That's awesome. It sounds like you had quite an eventful week! I've read Attachments by Rowell but nothing else and I really want too. I like her voice. Enjoy all your new reads! Have a great week!
ReplyDeleteWow! It definitely sounds like your week was pretty crazy! And congrats on 5 years!! That's incredible! Enjoy your new reads! I've heard great things about Unspeakable! :D

Congratulations on five years, wow, it is a big blogging milestone! There is a lot of buzz out there about Kill the Boy Band. I hope you love it as much as everyone else seems to. I will be checking out your Number Ones feature. Have a wonderful week. :)
ReplyDeleteCongrats on five years of blogging! I enjoyed Fangirl, but haven't read any of Rainbow's other's books.
ReplyDeleteI hope you have a lovely week!
Congratulations on your five years of blogging! It's a big milestone, and one worthy of celebration. I am sorry you had such an eventful week this past week. I hope everyone is okay. I hope you enjoy your new books! I read The Room and liked it. I am not sure I'm up to seeing the movie, but I have heard it is really good. I hope you have a great week--and a calmer one!
ReplyDeleteCongrats on five years!! Wow that's huge!
ReplyDeleteI belong to the..idk probably 10% that doesn't think Fangirl is all that. To me, it was okay but not good or great. I do hope you enjoy it though!
