Inspired by Celine from Nyx Book Reviews, I've decided to combine several weekly wrap-up memes into one post. Showcase Sunday is hosted by Vicky at Books, Biscuits and Tea. Stacking the Shelves is hosted at Tynga's Reviews, and Sunday Post is hosted at Kimba the Caffeinated Book Reviewer. Letterbox Love is a special British book-haul meme hosted by Lindsey at Narratively Speaking.
Last Week:
Since I've been so busy the previous weeks, this last week I've been playing catch-up with all my emails, visiting other blogs, updating pages on this blog, and trying to get down to the NaNo writing properly (bit behind!). Have also managed to fit in some video game time again, which feels amazing, stayed up way too late the past few nights reading The Eternity Cure, and spent almost an entire evening talking to my husband about the nature of the Force. All in all, a good week! :-)
Last week's posts:
Book Review - The Other Half of the Sky, edited by Athena Andreadis

DeleteI want to read The Eternity Cure! Hope you're enjoying it! I love the colors on the Enchanted Glass cover. Reminds me of stained glass. Thanks for stopping by today!
ReplyDelete-Melissa @ Harley Bear Book Blog
The colours are gorgeous aren't they? I always feel that DWJ covers should be colourful, so I'm glad this one is. :-) Ooh The Eternity Cure is really good - hope you enjoy it when you do read it!
DeleteOh, I loved Enchanted Glass! And I admit to being slightly jealous -- I wish I could go to the London Book Fair! Seriously, I hope you have an absolutely wonderful time.
ReplyDeleteAhh I can't go to the Book Fair this year, was just wishing everyone else who is going a good time. Hopefully next year though! :-) It looks fantastic doesn't it? I'm rather jealous of those who are going too! Oh I'm glad you enjoyed Enchanted Glass - I'm really looking forward to reading it!
