Week in READview:
Blogging & Reading:
I am switching my read to Potion Masters since I have to read it before next week. Nothing like waiting forever to read it. It is a fun read so I am not too worried about finishing it. It’s the last book in the series and I am so sad it will be over.
I am LOVING “There will come a darkness by Katy Rose Pool” and I am looking forward to getting back into it.
I am trying to keep up with the blog and so far after this weekend I should be about a week ahead. While I don’t have a lot of posts that I have planned. I am trying to come up with some fun stuff to do. One post that will be back this week is Task it Tuesday and I hope to have a binge watchers posts in the next week or so. The things I want to get more of is reviews, I don’t seem to have any of those lined up.
Real life:
I am sick, looks like I have the Rhinovirus again. It makes me cry to swallow and the cough is so annoying and makes me feel like I am dying. Thankfully I got some medicine from my doctor and hoping that by the end of today I am feeling better. I don’t want to take off work on Monday but will if I am still not feeling well.
Speaking of work, I got a raise. I almost fell off my chair. That is something that normally doesn’t happen so I was shocked. Sometimes my boss can be human and sometimes I can’t wait to leave.
This was a quiet week but with me being sick I didn’t get a lot done. I am off now to take a nap (it’s Saturday as I type this) I will be around to visit as much as I can but I will comment back if you leave a comment below.

Books:
(Read/Currently Reading/Next)
What I grabbed:
I actually bought a book this week only to realized it was the same book I am getting in my Owlcrate Box. So I have to return but I might wait to see what the cover looks like because sometimes the covers are different and if that is the case I might keep it. 🙂
I purchase another Owlcrate Jr Box because I got an email “Like millions of people around the world, we are devastated by the catastrophic wildfires burning across Australia. In support of those currently suffering, we will be donating 20% of all shop sales from shop.owlcrate.com to WIRES wildlife rescue.” I will share that also next weekend.

Me too! I am hoping to get more rest after work today.
Thank you! I was quite shocked about it. It’s not often he give surprises.
Hope you feel better ASAP! I had a sore throat like that a couple months ago- swallowing was awful- so I feel your pain. although mine didn’t last long thank goodness, I dreaded swallowing and didn’t eat. That’s a horrible feeling when you can’t even swallow!
And yay for the raise!!!
Hope your week is awesome and sickness free.
Thanks Greg! The pharmacy recommended Cepacol and I might use them forever. While it makes your entire mouth numb it doesn’t hurt to swallow 🙂 lol
Sorry to hear that you have gone down with such a nasty illness and I hope you feel a lot better really soon, Michelle – and huge congratulations on getting a raise. It’s a good time of year to get an injection of cash!
I started to take the medicine so I hope they work quickly. I hate being sick.
and Thank You, it was quite a shock and extra money is always good! 🙂
Thank you for your support via owl crate! It’s very much appreciated.
Congratulations on the raise and I hope you are feeling better
Wishing you a great reading week
I have been trying to find a place to donate, that would really send the money and I figured owlcrate is perfect! 🙂
Thank you…I am trying to rest enough so I can feel better by Monday.
Hope you’re feeling better and congrats on your raise! That’s always a nice surprise. 🙂
I just started the meds so I am hoping they kick this out of me soon. Thank you, I was rather shocked and I stared at him for a minute like I heard wrong lol
Sorry you are sick! It seems to be a common thing this week! Hopefully you get better quickly. And yay raise!!! Thats totally awesome!
Everyone I know is either sick or knows like 5 people that are sick. It’s amazing!
Thank you! I was rather shocked lol
Yay for the raise! Boo for the rhinovirus. Lots of people seem to be sick. I see drinking lots of fluids in my future. I hope you will feel much better, very soon. Enjoy your reads!
Anne – Books of My Heart Here is my Sunday Post
I totally agree! It was a positive and a negative week lol.
I know a lot of people that are sick or know a lot of people that are sick. It’s crazy
My doctor said a lot of viruses are going around, he tested me to see which one but he is treating me for the rhino since it’s the most common.
Glad you are enjoying your books! I need to look up that potion series it looks fun! 🙂
Have a great week and happy reading!

I think you would love the potion series! It’s really good. 🙂
I am sorry to hear your caught that Rhinovirus again. I hope you feel better soon and that the medicines you got help. That’s awesome you got a raise!
And yay for being ahead a bit with your blogging :). The problem with reviews is that you have to read the books first and enough of them to get the reviews done. Sometimes it helps to get some shorter reads?
That Potion Master book looks fun! I hope you have a great week!
I am hoping they work, I just started them, today I am better but can tell not 100%.
I was rather shocked by my raise.
I have been thinking of binging some short KU reads, see if that helps me get ahead. I like the idea.
The Potions Masters series is so fun. It’s one of my favorites.
Congrats on the raise! That’s gotta be nice! And yay for only getting one book! I’m pretty sure Owl Crate is changing the cover for this one. I feel like that’s their thing now. I’m excited for that one too!
Here’s my StS
Have a GREAT day!
Old Follower 🙂

I am pretty sure also which is why I figured I would wait, if they are the same I might ship the one I bought to Berls so we can read it together. 🙂
Congrats on the raise! And I hope those meds kick that virus quick! Feel better! <3
Thank you and Me too! 🙂
