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!

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 ...
