The Sunday Post (5 December 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.

I've been off work this week which has been great as it's meant that I've been able to focus all my time on getting ready for Christmas. I can't believe it's December already! I feel like I have so much that I still want to do before 2021 ends.

This week I put up my Christmas tree and got the Christmas candles out. I love having the house smell all Christmas-y. I'm also almost done with Christmas shopping. I just have to buy for my mum now and I have no idea what to get her. I may still get little bits and bobs for my nephew and brother and sister-in-law too. I've also managed to get my Christmas cards written so at least now I just have to post them or give them to everyone now.

    I'm looking words to reading Wild Swans. I do believe the Percy Jackson series may be in my future! Thank you for sharing!

      I've put Wild Swans on hold just now. I was enjoying listening to it, but it's pretty heavy. I'm really enjoying the Percy Jackson series so hope you get the chance to read soon.

      I didn't enjoy Ninth House as much as I hoped. I still liked it, but it's not one I'm going to rush out to get the sequel for... But I hope you enjoy it better than 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. Follow me via  Goodreads ,  Facebook ,  Bloglovin  and  Pinterest  and also via email to myexpandingbookshelf@gmail.com.  Feel fre...
