Welcome to the Sunday Post, a weekly meme hosted by Kimberly @ Caffeinated Reviewer to share weekly news and updates on what we’ve been up to on our blog, with our books, and book-related happenings. 

Snow and More Snow

It’s March already, but it’s been snowing and snowing and snowing for the last few days! Whyyyyy??? I had a couple of appointments that turned into virtual ones instead because I did not want to go out in this weather. I’m a wimp. But also, I have a cold.

I’ve been sneezing all day, every day, for three days now and it is not fun. My sneezes are loud and powerful, it’s like a full body blast every time I sneeze, so my whole body aches and it feels like I’ve been running marathons and lifting weights. Not fun! I don’t even run marathons or lift weights when I’m healthy!

I wasn’t even able to lay in bed sick to read books. I only finished a single, tiny book last week. It was a good book though, so there’s that!

Book(s) I read last week:

I read the first book in The Murderbot Diaries, All Systems Red by Martha Wells on audiobook. It was only a 3-hour audiobook, so it went quickly, but I really enjoyed it and I’m excited for more! I haven’t written a review because I haven’t felt up to it yet, but I will as soon as I feel better!

I am also still in the middle of The Count of Monte Cristo for the readalong. I have it on audio and I’m just listening casually whenever I need to (for chores and sleeping). I love that it’s a huge book and 47 hours on audio, so I have lots to listen to and don’t have to scramble to find a new audiobook.

The book I’m actively reading right now is A River Enchanted by Rebecca Ross, and I’m 61% in and loving it. It’s been on my TBR for a long time and I’m finally reading it due to some pressur-…uh, I mean, encouragement from my friends, and I’m probably going directly to the next book in the duology right after.

I thought I would be able to finish it last week, but the beginning of the week was busy for me, and then later with all the sneezing and being so physically tired, I’ve just been falling asleep every time I try to read.

This Week

I definitely want to finish A River Enchanted and A Fire Endless this week, if nothing else. I’m still feeling too sick and tired to aim for more. I’d be happy with these two!

How was your week? I hope you had a great week last week, and I hope you have a great one again this week!
