The Sunday Post (8 May)


The Sunday Post is a weekly meme hosted by Kimberly of Caffeinated Book Reviewer. It’s a chance to share news. A post to recap the past week on your blog and showcase books and things we have received. Share news about what is coming up on our blog for the week ahead.

It's been a really quiet week this week which has made me so happy considering I spent the better part of two weeks ill. I'm not quite caught out with my reading or blogging but I'm getting there. In other news, I went to the hairdressers yesterday and went for the first major hair change in two years just because I really felt I needed the change. I went from being quite blonde to quite a dark brunette and I love it!

No picture this week, but I've been carrying on watching the latest Game of Thrones episode. That ending! I cannot wait for Monday night now! I've also been continuing with Shadowhunters and I think I'm up to episode 11 now. So I may be finishing that series pretty soon. :( I'll need to decide what to watch next now.

  1. 18 years! Wow, time does fly. Hard to believe... Thanks for sharing those discussions, I missed those and will check them out. The Neverland Wars looks interesting.

    I'm looking forward to Game of Thrones. :)

    1. I know! It really does fly. I can't wait to read The Neverland Wars. I've never read a Peter Pan retelling before.

Top Ten Tuesday: Characters I'd Love to Check in With

Top Ten Tuesday is a weekly meme hosted by  The Broke and The Bookish .  This week's topic is the top ten characters you'd like to check in with.  I really struggled with this one, my brain just went blank and I couldn't really think of anyone besides pretty obvious choices.

Discussion: The Problem With My Local Library

I used to use my local library all the time when I was in school.  Source I even spent every lunchtime in my school's library. My friends and I were pupil librarians and we practically had the run of the whole library. And then, when I started University, the only library I had time for was the University library. And that wasn't an enjoyable experience. However, last summer I started going to my local library again. (I then had to stop again when I got my job.) And unfortunately, I was pretty disappointed.  Source The availability sucks. I can deal with books I want that are already out on loan. It's the complete lack of decent books the library has on its system that gets to me. All those months I went to the library last year and I never left with a book that was already on my TBR. I walked around that place looking at my Goodreads trying to find any book on that list. And I couldn't find any at all (except for the Classics). To be honest, I ...
