Reading:
Being sick I didn’t have a lot of time to read and I had a few other things come up but I am looking forward to spending some time today reading. I am pretty sure I will have this finished before the end of the week.
What I grabbed:
I may have gotten a few books this week….oops…
I already have the first book in physical format for the Falconer Trilogy but I saw them all on Amazon Kindle Deals for .99 and had to grab them.
You can find them here but I am not sure if they are still on sale.
I was so excited to get the last book in the Potions Masters series. This is one of my favorites and will be reading it for a blog tour next year. (which is two months away, WHAT)
I may have shared the first 3 of these books but the rest of the series came out and I got them all. I love her writing and I can not wait to binge read this series. I just love looking at them all together so I figured why not share them again! My set is complete! Maybe sometimes she likes to surprise us with another book. She did that for the Royally Screwed series which I LOVE.
I also got my Owlcrate books but I will share both next Sunday since they are still being sent out.

Week in READview:
Real life & Blogging:
So last Sunday I said was sick, well on Monday I wanted to cry every time I swallowed so I went to the doctor. I had a viral infection and was on antibiotics and basically slept when I got home. I got a text on Monday asking if I wanted to chaperone my daughters dance, I asked my daughter and she was fine with it so on Wednesday I helped out. The kids had a great time all dressed up, my daughter wore a halloween shirt since we didn’t have her costume yet. Saturday we got my daughters costume and my daughter had a super late game. Thankfully tomorrow we have a full day to get some stuff done. I am planning to do some blogging, design and then spend the rest of the night building houses in the sims. My blog was down today for quite a while so I wasn’t able to do any work. By the time it was fixed I had to get ready to leave for my daughters game.
What I am watching/podcasts:
So I recently found out that the show Murder made me Famous was a podcast so I started listening to them. I can’t watch them since no streaming channel I have has it and if I want it I need to pay. I am not paying for it. I also found another murder podcast that I am enjoying as well. It is a half paranormal and half true crime and I am too lazy to look up the name. 🙂
I watched a few things this week also. On Friday I binge watched the Confession tapes of Ted Bundy and then watched The Last Kids on Earth which is based on the book. I read the book so seeing it was so cute. I can’t wait for them to release the rest of the books. I binge watched some more Criminal Minds since for some reason instead of horror I want to watch murder….same thing really.
Just for Fun:
So tell me what have you been reading and up to this week?
Hope you all have a fantastic week!!!
Happy Reading

Sorry you were sick but glad you take the time to rest and went to the doctor. How fun that you chaperoned the dance! Sounds like your daughter had a good time and you were feeling well enough to do it. Enjoy your new reads and have a great week!
Sorry you’ve been sick, but it sounds like you’re getting better – yay! I’m with Berls — how is J old enough to be going to a dance already? Wow.
Enjoy your new books, and have a good (and healthier) week!
I hope you are feeling much, much better. We all are tired and are afraid we might be getting sick so we are trying to be steady today. I’m making soup. Have a wonderful week and enjoy those new reads! The potion master ones look good.
Anne – Books of My Heart Here is my Sunday Post
I got a sinus infection this week and it sucked. Chaperoning dances is every high school teachers nightmare. We hate it! Hope you are feeling better!
I had no idea the blog was down, and I’ve been on here every day. I must have good timing or something! I hope you’re feeling much better now 🙂
Gah, how is Julia old enough that she’s having dances for you to chaperone? I realize I haven’t known y’all THAT LONG, but it still seems like she’s grown up so much these past few years!
Have a great week my friend, maybe we can find some time to chat? Happy house building 😉
Ahhh I hope you feel better! Chaperoning a dance while sick?! That sounds miserable (unless you felt better by then haha). Have a great week!
Hope you are feeling better and new books are always the best medicine. Thanks for the shout out for the HoHoHoRAT.
I’m not sure if I have ever read anything by Madison Faye, but that series looks pretty smokin’ that I might just have to check it out. Ha!
Thank for including information about the #HoHoHoRAT. If I can throw together a TBR for it quickly, I may just participate!
Happy Reading!
Hope you feel better Michelle! I was the same way a couple weeks ago when I got bronchitis- it started with a sore throat and it was so bad every time I swallowed it felt like swallowing glass. Ugh it it was terrible. I hope you’re on the mend! 🙂
The Elizabeth May books look great!
“Nobody asked you” haha. So true…
I have to say Jinx. I was commenting on your blog when you were commenting on mine. lol
Yes, I was thinking porcupine but glass works too.
I couldn’t pass up the book for 99 cents. I can’t wait to read them but I might save it for the next can you read a series. 🙂
I’m so curious about Aurora Rising… I loved the Illuminae Files.. Also a bit scared that it will disappoint, so I will be looking out for your review.
LOVE your quote, btw!
So far it is pretty good, I am looking forward to getting more into the story.
Well Michelle I really hope that next week will be easier for you! Being sick sucks especially when you are a mom because you never are out of duty!
I think my weeks will get easier once halloween is over. The kids have so much going on. I do enjoy doing stuff with them but I am happy I am feeling better. It makes it easier.
You had a very full week. I’m glad the antibiotics were able to knock out the virus so quickly.
Enjoy all your reads!
Me too. Still have a cough but that seems to always hang for a while longer.
Oh fun!!! Getting books is always fun! Lol. I hope you enjoy all your new reads!
Hope you feel better soon too!
Here’s my StS
Have a GREAT day!
Old Follower 🙂
I am a collector, at least that is what I keep telling my husband every time a new book comes home lol
That Madison Faye series looks hot so I’m going to check it out 😂
I want to catch up on CM but I’m so behind on the show!! Gahh! I hope you’re feeling better!
I love Madison but she is a very fast burn book. Lots of steam and some stories. It’s actually my favorite kind of reads,. especially when I am looking for something quick. 🙂
I am doing better, thank goodness!
