The Weekend Review - May 2nd-4th








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!  

Welcome May! Already I don't like it! This wasn't one of my quiet weeks.  I ended up getting sick. My temp has been ranging 99 through 102 all week. I've been coughing non-stop.  I tested negative for Covid and for the Flu A & B. I did go to the doctor on Friday. They gave me an antibiotic which is making me feel worse. I think I must have a respiratory infection.

I haven't felt much like doing anything. I only read one book and really couldn't concentrate on much else. The one book was early in the week and I loved every minute of it. 

Hopefully this illness will go away and I can get back to my normal life.

Have a great week everyone!

  5. Ugh. I'm so sorry that you are sick, and that, so far, nothing has knocked it out. I hope at least will run its course in 7-10 days and that you will feel much, much better.

  13. Hope this illness passes soon, when you feel off reading it says "rather unwell". I guess many of us will be chasing up the Nora Roberts book. The Jenn McKinlay book looks good too.
