The Sunday Post is a weekly meme hosted by Kimba the Caffeinated Book Reviewer ~ It's a chance to share news~ A post to recap the past week on your blog, showcase books and things we have received and share news about what is coming up on our blog for the week ahead.
If you'd like to participate with The Sunday Salon, it is now being hosted by Deb at Readerbuzz.
It’s Monday! What Are You Reading is a meme with a new host! It's now being hosted by Kathryn at Book Date. This is where we share what we read this past week, what we hope to read this week…. and anything in between! This is a great way to plan out your reading week and see what others are currently reading as well… you never know where that next “must read” book will come from!
I'm also linking to Stacking the Shelves which is hosted by Reading Reality.
Hi Everyone!
Another quiet week for me. The weather here has been nice. I'm not sure how long it will last, but we didn't have any rain or clouds.
I didn't finish any books this week. I think I was too caught up in my new Game of Thrones obsession. I finished the final season, and I didn't hate it as much as others did. I actually thought it was very well done although I was sad to see some of the characters being killed off. I watched the first episode of the prequel House of Dragons, but I'm not into it yet. I found it a little slow, but I thought the same thing about Game of Thrones and that turned into an obsession.
Some of my other TV shows are returning. This week I had Young Sheldon, NCIS, Blue Bloods and Fire Country. Fire Country is the only one I haven't seen yet. I also want to try the new series Tracker.
Not much else is happening here. I hope you are all enjoying the weekend. Have a great week!
I didn't become as obsessed with House of the Dragon but am still looking forward to the new series due later this year. I've never read the GOT books, have you?
ReplyDeleteNo, I haven't read the GOT books yet. They are longer than books I usually read, but I still might try at least the first one.
DeleteHouse of the Dragon is interesting, I think they should have covered more ground in the first season but still... well done. the book is wild.
ReplyDeleteIt's been snowy and cold here
I have to get back to watching House of the Dragon. I've only watched the first episode. I'll have to check out the book too. Have a great week!
DeleteThe book is different because it's more like histories so it's dryer than GT. Like he's just reciting a history.
DeleteI love good weather! I hope yours continues. I keep planning to try Game of Thrones.
ReplyDeleteEnjoy those books and your week, and here are my WEEKLY UPDATES
GOT is longer than the usual books I read so I've been hesitating but I might break down and read it anyway. Have a great week!
DeleteI've not seen Game of Thrones. Maybe one day...
ReplyDeleteI'll Fated Fortunes looks good. I hope you enjoy it.
All those Kindle freebies look good so I am quickly scrolling past as I have way too many books to read!!
Have a great week ahead!

Kindle freebies can be so dangerous. I have way too many and still many to be read. Have a great week!
DeleteLOL, Smitten with Ravioli looks cute! Have a great week!
ReplyDeleteI loved the title. It made me want Italian food right now. LOL Have a great week!
DeleteI agree with you regarding the last season of Game of Thrones - and having read several of the books, I'm not suprised that Martin didn't finish the series - it would be a monster task to round off everyone's personal story without becoming really boringly repetitive. Glad you had a quiet week and I hope the coming one is also peaceful:).
ReplyDeleteAgree about GOT. I can't imagine how it would be to wrap up everyone's personal story. I do think the way they did it was good, but I was more than ready for another season and to keep going. Have a great week!
DeleteI have not heard of Tracker. That sounds like something the hubby and I would enjoy. Have aq good week. XO
ReplyDeleteTracker stars Justin Hartley from This Is Us. They aired the first one after the Super Bowl, but I haven't watched it yet. Have a great week!
DeleteI think it really helps that you can binge a series and not have to wait a week for each episode to stay engaged and remember all the plot bits. That said, I end up reading more than watching.
ReplyDeleteAnne - Books of My Heart This is my Sunday Post
It absolutely helped me to binge GOT. After each episode I was going crazy wanting to know what would happen next. Have a great week!
DeleteGlad you enjoyed GOT.. including the ending. My husband watched House of Dragon.. I didn't feel the need.
ReplyDeleteI really need to watch Game of Thrones someday. Glad you had a great week!
ReplyDeleteHere’s my Sunday Post

Reading or watching, it sounds like you've been busy either way.
ReplyDeleteIt's great to have an obsessive show to watch. I did never follow Game of Thrones but I know that those who did really got engrossed.
ReplyDeleteI couldn’t make it mast 2 episodes of GoT, just no my thing. I’ll look into Tracker though and I’m pleased my favs are finally coming back to tv.
ReplyDeleteWishing you a great reading week
We like to have a tv series that we are caught up in. Right now we are watching Northern Exposure.
ReplyDeleteI hope you get some time for a book or two this week!
I'm glad you liked GOT! I liked the prequel, but not as much as GOT. I hope you have a great week.
ReplyDeleteI watched only the first couple of minutes of the first episode of Game of Thrones and decided it wasn't for me. I'm glad you enjoyed it. It is about time to turn my TV on for the first time in a couple of weeks because baseball is coming! Come see my week here. Happy reading!
ReplyDeleteBlue Bloods is a great show. I'll miss it. Hope you enjoy your reading week.

I have The Secret Love Letters of Olivia Morretti on my TBR. I got it out of the library but had to return it before I was able to read it. Soon though! Yay for a quiet week and nice weather. I hope this week is going well!
