In Real life:
Can this year slow down….Is April really almost over? This week was another one of me being sort of MIA, I really don’t mean to be, things have been so busy with work, after school activities, school projects and design work for LD. I barely have time to do anything else and all I want to do is sleep. I am exhausted by the end of the day.
Things are about to get even busier now that the coach and my husband think the girls need A LOT of practice so it looks like it will be 5 times a week. I now have to plan my menu a little different and realize that some nights are going to be very late. Our next game is on Tuesday at 7:30…that is going to be a very late night. So once again I might be MIA but I will be around as much as I can and the blog does have a lot this week.
On the blog:
This week I was finally able to post another review. This time Lawless by T.M. Frazier for the Author Love Challenge. I am doing pretty good with it. I am planning to read book #5 very soon, I just need to finish a few other books before I get to that one. I am hoping to devour those rather quickly. The King series is quickly becoming my favorite.
So I am revamping the #Wishlist post because I want to make it like Waiting On Wednesday but with that twist I always like to throw in. The post was not exactly what I wanted so it might be back this week or I might wait until May to reintroduce with a few changes.
In June, Stormi (Books, Movies, Review! On My!) and I will be doing a fun interactive post. We might not set it up at first for people to join us unless it seems like people want to then we will. The post is still being worked out so we will have details soon. (you know I love to post teasers) 😉
June is also the return of Can you read a Series in a Month? Which I totally failed at last year and plan to NOT make that mistake again. The sign up for that will go live in May (TBD) and so will COYER Summer (May 20th). I hope you are ready to make your summer reading lists….Oops did I say that…Nevermind, COYER Summer will be a LOT of fun and more laid back than winter. (ps all books count, like ALL books, you’re welcome)

Sorry to hear you’ve been so busy lately! My April has been much of the same, my days are so full I can hardly fit anything else in my days. But business have been awesome, so yay for that.
Glad to hear you’ve been doing well with your author challenge. There have been some authors I read a lot of this year, but I wanted to keep this year low on challenges. I am looking forward to Coyer. And now I am curious what that interactive posts is you mentioned.
I hope this week was a good week for you!
Your house is busy, busy, busy! If your leagues are anything like ours, they always put the best kids on one team and the worst kids on another, which is exactly in opposite of what Little League stands for. I hope Scot is able to teach them some great strategies for game days! I might be going MIA, too. I am so torn, I can’t decide. :/
I hear ya on the insanely busy part. I never remember what day it is because they’re going by so fast that it’s the next day before I get used to the day before. And now it’s nearly MAY?! Wtf? *thud*
I hope you have a fantastic week, Michelle, even though it is busy. 🙂 XOXO
I have been MIA more often than not as of late too. Life just gets away from me. I’m way behind in responding to comments. I hope as life gets even busier for you in the coming weeks, you find at least a little time to breathe and relax. I can’t see what you and Stormi are up to. 🙂
I hope you have a great week, Michelle!
Just like you things have been so crazy busy for me this year1 And I can’t believe how fast it is going by. I have so many things I need to save money for, but I don’t seem to be doing any better. Hope you have a great week! You can check out my Sunday Post in the link below!
I have a ton of things to do and money seems to be the only thing thats not building up fast enough. 🙂
Wow that is a lot of practicing you are going to be so tired. Hope all the practice pays off! 🙂 Enjoy your reads! 🙂
Stormi
Well more for Julia and Scot. It’s just a lot of late night cooking and cleaning up. Prevents me from doing stuff when my schedule is so off. I hope the practices help too.
Five days a week?! Wow you do sound busy! But at least you’re getting stuff done 🙂 Have a great week!
The problem is that 16 girls on the team 12 of them never played before. They lost both games so bad like 16 to 0 so they really need it. Just because they only gave my husband and the other coach one week to get them ready for the field. It’s ridiculous!
Rise of the Sea Witch sounds really interesting! I’m hoping I get chosen for an ARC. <3
I am so excited to read it. I hope I can wait until I finish my current read to dive into it but it’s so tempting!!!
Oh I love the king series! Hopefully things will slow down a bit for you soon. Just reading about how busy you are made me tired.
Have a great week!
Lol you commented at the same time I was reading your blog 🙂 My son interrupted me from commenting, I am going now to do that.
it is a great series. I hope so too. I need a break but that wont be until June.
Why does real life have to get in the way of reading and blogging with school work and sport practices??? WHYYYYYY?? I never get to do much reading and blogging in spring either. All we do is practices and games! I love it but still, like you, I am also exhausted by the end of the day and want to go to sleep 🙂
I think I requested The fearless travelers guide too. Looks so good. I hope you are liking it!
I’m currently reading Say I’m Yours. I’m not a big fan of Trent’s so far. We’ll see if he can redeem himself at the end. Anyway, I’m planning on reading T.M Frazier’s series. I’ve been hearing great things about the series since January. Glad that you’re loving it.
Have a wonderful week, Michelle. Happy reading. 😁
Sorry Trent isn’t working for you, I want to read that book also. Kings story was fantastic and Bear was ok, i liked it but Preppy is the one I can’t wait to read. Really glad I picked her from my Author Love Challenge!
Thanks Michelle. I’ll start with King and then Preppy. 😁👍🏻
No YOU can’t! You have to read Bear. It pulls the King and Preppy together. If must be read in order. Bear isn’t bad it’s a good story, I just preferred King
“Can you read a Series in a Month” That sounds fun. I usually burn out on series, but I might could rise to the challenge. 🙂
We did it last year and I totally failed because I didn’t buy the books in enough time. It was poor planning but to read a trilogy in a month is pretty easy. It was a fun challenge. I can’t wait to do it again! 🙂
I know, right? Almost May already… and it’s just starting to get nice here. Been cool and rainy.
Should be fun to see what you and Stormi have up your sleeves. 🙂 And yay for summer COYER.
Westworld *nods* I liked it although I couldn’t figure out Ed Harris’ character for the life of me. Everything else I really liked though. Can I go to Westworld?? Ha ha where do you think it is located at? I love reading all the speculation, like is it even on Earth or somewhere else?
So then I will go with Westworld to start, I will answer all your questions when I watch lol
I am excited COYER is almost here. It will be nice to have the relaxation of the summer.
It rained a lot this week and has been very chilly. This week coming up looks like some rain but not too bad.
