Another busy week. I am ready for a slowdown! It always seems like it takes a week to recover from vacation, doesn’t it? Lol. Today we had my niece’s birthday party, and it was a great day – lots of fun outdoors, plus delicious cupcakes. It was a good way to spend a Sunday!
Read Last Week:
I only managed to finish this book last week. I really loved it!
Reading This Week:
The Hawkweed Legacy – the sequel to Prophecy. So far it is just as good! It is a review book for Lake Union.
I’ll Be Gone in the Dark – It finally came in! Whoohoo! Now, to see if I can actually make it through it. It might scare the crap out of me. Lol.
Watching:
Red Oaks, Insatiable, Sharp Objects (addictive and mesmerizing!!), Stay Here
How about you all? How is it going for you?
I love Sharp Objects…I’m off to watch tonight’s episode.
I am still waiting for my library hold on I’ll Be Gone in the Dark.
Enjoy your week, and thanks for sharing.

We are hooked on it! We are not caught up and only get to watch an episode every couple of days, and in between I can’t wait to watch the next one. It’s been a while since I have read it too – I remember “whodunit” but not much of the unfolding of the mystery and clues.
I was laying in bed last night just thinking about that book – I feel like I might chicken out!! Lol.

The Hawkweed books look good. Not familiar with those! Love that first cover especially! And ooh Sharp Objects- I don’t have HBO, so no go there, but I’m gonna catch up to it at some point.

I had not heard of them until I received Legacy as a review book. I am so glad that I got it, I really enjoyed them both!
Sharp Objects is so good!! I wish I could binge watch it. Just the cinematography itself, the way it is filmed, is amazing. They are doing a great job with it.

It’s always a good sign when someone wants to read the next book in a series right away.

Yes – and me in particular! I can read a book then not go back to the next in the series for a whole year. So if I jump on it, then I am really liking them. 🙂

I agree, it sounds so scary! The more I think about it, the more I think I might chicken out! Lol.

I’ll Be Gone In the Dark is worth the wait. My advice? Don’t read it at night! I listened to it and was fine in the day time, but after dark some parts were just too frightening.

I will have to try it that way! I probably couldn’t handle it once the sun goes down…lol.

The birthday party sounds fun. Cupcakes are one of my favorite things ever. I’m envious that you got I’ll Be Gone In The Dark. I’m going to have to buy it because the waitlist is too long, and I’m impatient. Have a great week.
