The Sunday Post #3: Something's Brewing

In My Mailbox Sunday, November 03, 2013

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

Helloooooo guys! I think I'll be busy with some stuffs again, but I'll definitely do my best to still keep active despite things.

Also, no book haul post this week since I'm still on a book-buying ban, and I didn't receive any books in the mail this week. Perhaps next week? And it's my birthday week/month, so I might (only a little) cheat with the ban. *grins* *waggles eyebrows*

LAST WEEK ON THE BLOG:

Book Haul: Stacking The Shelves 18
Book Review: Divergent by Veronica Roth
Top Ten Tuesday - Top Ten Halloween Reads (MY FIRST ONE!)
Book Review: Insurgent by Veronica Roth

WHAT TO EXPECT THIS WEEK:

Book Review: Shadow and Bone by Leigh Bardugo (SO MUCH FEELS FOR THIS ONE!!!!)
HOPEFULLY, my first discussion post

Stacking The Shelves 17 + Update

book haul Sunday, October 20, 2013

Stacking The Shelves is a weekly meme hosted by Tynga's Reviews, wherein we showcase the books or swag we bought, received, borrowed or won the past week.

Hi guys! Whoa. It's been an awfully long time since I last posted something here. It has been a very busy time for me. Usual—school keeps getting busier and I almost can't keep up with the ton of things I have to submit and do. People on Twitter are aware of this; they know how late (or early) in the morning I stay up just to finish something for school. It totally drains me and I barely have time to read, let alone to blog. But gratefully, our exams are finally over!!!!! *insert party .gif here* Hopefully things will loosen up a bit, so expect reviews this week. And also, ALLEGIANT IS COMING OUT ON TUESDAY!!!!!!!! I am currently rereading Divergent, and then Insurgent—and I'll post reviews of them on the blog as well. I ~~promise~~ will try to be more active this time and post more often than before. So... I guess that's a welcome back for me.

I put myself on a book-buying ban until I finish all the books on my TBR pile, but I really just can't. A while ago, I almost walked out of a bookstore without a book in hand. Almost. So I cheated and allowed just one.

Parallel by Lauren Miller

Shadow and Bone by Leigh Bardugo

Burn Out by Kristi Helvig

The Boyfriend App by Katie Sise

The Guys Are Props Club by Ingrid Seymour

My huge thanks to Lauren, Kristi, Katie, and Ingrid!
