The Weekend Review - May 11th-13th





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!  

Happy Mother's Day to all those celebrating this weekend!  I hope you all have a beautiful day.

Another quiet week for me.  It's been very hot here so I've been staying inside with the a/c running.  I did manage to finish two books this week and loved both of them.  My TV shows are winding down so I've been keeping up with them.  In June a new Criminal Minds series returns.  I'm looking forward to that.  Plus, I have baseball to watch.

I'll just make this short and sweet this week since nothing new is going on.  I hope you all have a great week!

I finished reading ...






These are the books I hope to read in May.  A couple are carryovers from April that I'm going to try and squeeze in.







Here is this week's Kindle freebie haul. They were freebies when I got them, I don't know if they still are. Always make sure to check they are still free before buying. The prices change quickly.

  1. We made the jump to hot weather, too, after lots of rain the week before. I have enjoyed sitting on our deck in the shade. Have a good week.

  2. Love at First Book sounds like a romance for all the readers out there. Fun!

    I like having a quiet week, I think.

  10. It's nice to have a quiet week. It's been warm and sunny here too and we don't have AC.

    Good looking books.

  15. It's the opposite of hot here. I feel like it's been raining for days. I'm not complaining because work is easier when it rains. I hope you have a great week!

  18. I love Jenn McKinlay and need to look for that one. Also, how cute is that cover for Miami Mice? It's been pretty chilly here and below the average temps but today should be warmer. Hope you have another great week!

  19. Happy Mother's Day! It's sooo hot where I live as well, but we're trying not to use the A/C too often and are having trouble with coming up with ways to keep the cold air in and the hot air out. It's been driving us crazy and it's so hard to work. 😂

  20. Sounds like a good week. It was warm enough here to have the patio doors open to get some fresh air in the house for the first time since last fall. Come see my week here. Happy reading!

  24. I loved Love at First Book! I hope you enjoy it as well. We dropped cable and have had such a hard time watching Braves baseball which has been a bit frustrating - but not frustrating enough to get cable back. I hope you're having a great week!
