The Weekend Review - January 30th-February 1st





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 Team Tynga's Reviews.


Hi Everyone!  

It's really hard to believe January is almost over.  I have no idea where the time goes, but time is sure flying.  

Not a very exciting week.  I had my wellness check up with my doctor and everything went well.  I told him about the pain I've been having in my shoulder so he is sending me for an x-ray and then, possibly, for physical therapy.  I'll know after Monday.  The pain comes and goes but he said it's swollen so there's something there...it might be bursitis.  I guess the x-ray will tell us more.

I finished reading two books this week.  Both were good and part of blog tours, so the reviews will be up in the next week or so.  

I'm a bit behind on my TV viewing, but I don't really mind.  I've been enjoying my books and I'm very happy escaping into them.  I need an escape from the craziness that continues in the world around us.  

It's been an overall quiet week and I always appreciate those.  I hope you all have a great week!

  10. I enjoyed The Perfect Guests. I'm having my left shoulder looked at when I go to the doctor for my annual checkup in a few weeks. I have arthritis in my right shoulder and I'm starting to have the same pain in my left shoulder. I hope you get some relief.

    I’m used to read so many Harlequins when I was at uni, the Intrigue and Desire were my favourite lines.

    Wishing you a great reading week
