The Sunday Post (18 July 2021)

   

The Sunday Post is a weekly meme hosted by Kimberly of Caffeinated 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.

Another quiet week this week. It's been really nice weather here so I've spent a lot of time in the garden trying to tidy it up a bit. I went to the pub quiz with my dad again and we got 25/40. I also spent Saturday babysitting my baby nephew. We had a lot of fun going to the park, watching motorbikes and reading his books.

This Week on the Blog

I'm just going to post as and when I can for the moment.

What I Read Last Week

Currently Reading


What I Plan to Read This Week

Book Haul

Currently Watching

The Italian Job was on TV last Sunday. My dad used to watch this all the time when I was growing up, so I felt I had to give it another watch.

Currently Listening To

My nephew loves Harry Styles so I've spent a lot of time listening to him this weekend and watching the videos. He particularly likes the fish in the Adore You video.

    1. I'm not sure if enjoying it is the right word to use, but I'm definitely finding I can't put The Handmaid's Tale down. The Adore You video is just so fabulously strange - I love it!

  4. Sounds like you had a lovely weekend. I always used to enjoy watching my nephews. (Of course they are 22 and 25 now so that was years ago. LOL) I like that song by Harry Styles.

    1. It was such a nice weekend, and I loved getting the one-to-one time with my nephew. With various lockdowns, it's not something we had managed before.

    1. I've started this one, and it's quite good. All I can hear is his voice in my head though.

Top Ten Tuesday is a weekly meme hosted by  The Broke and The Bookish . This week's topic is a top ten new to me authors of 2015. I have read so many new to me authors this year and it's been brilliant! I'm not sure if I can limit this list to only 10!

Top Ten Tuesday: Books I'd Love Santa to Leave for Me

Feature and Follow (29 May)

The Feature & Follow is hosted by TWO hosts, Parajunkee of  Parajunkee’s View  and Alison of  Alison Can Read . Each host will have their own Feature Blog and this way it’ll allow us to show off more new blogs! I'm one of the featured blogs this week! Along with Amanda of  The Darling Bookworm . This week’s Question: How many books have you got on your TBR list? I recently had a bit of a cull of my TBR list so now it is sitting at 269. I'm trying my hardest to get it below 200 by the end of the year but I really don't see it happening. I'd currently be happy if I managed to get it below 225. However, I did recently have a look through my TBR on Goodreads and deleted a few books that I don't think I will actually ever read - I'm not even to sure how they got there anyway.
