In My Reading Life
I didn’t get a lot of reading done last week. I do
most of my reading at night, and I was too tired for it. I read A Monster Calls by Patrick Ness and
started The Miniaturist by Jessie
Burton. Up next is I Am The Messenger
by Markus Zusak.
In My Blogging Life
I’ve updated the Blogs I Stalk thingy. Check it out
if you haven’t yet. It’s over there. ---->
I’ve also finished reading and reviewing all of the
Printz Award winners. You can find my reviews and rambles here.
In The Rest Of My Life
Five things that made me happy last week:
- Super Bowl Sunday. I honestly don’t care about football, but I needed an excuse to eat nachos. I care passionately about nachos.
- The winner of the Super Bowl. I live in Colorado, so everyone who cares about football is very satisfied with the outcome of the football stuff. I like happy people.
- Girl Scout cookies.
- I took another Sorting Hat quiz. Still a Ravenclaw.
- New Harry Potter book? I’m not sure what’s true and what’s rumor about this. I just know that Goodreads exploded a little.
I hope you had a great week! See you around the
blogosphere!
Hi AJ. First time here via Sunday Post. Love your blog design! Special Elite is my favorite font and the graphics are lovely!
ReplyDeleteI hear you about being super tires to read. I have been doing mostly audio books for two months now.
HAHA your thoughts about Super Bowl are ALMOST mine! NACHOS! yeah! show YEAH! Happy people in Colorado... hummm not so much! since I live in New England and they eliminated the Pats :)
I've been curious the craziness in GR about New Harry Potter book as well. Enjoy your week
I heard about the new Harry Potter book, and then I heard it's a script and then I was unsure whether I'd want to read it. I really enjoyed Harry Potter when I was younger, but maybe it should have been left alone...
ReplyDeleteI like reading scripts, so I’m interested to see what this one is about.

I'm ready for the cheap candy! I haven't read as much either but I hope to make up for it! Enjoy the rest of your weekend!
ReplyDeleteYES! Cheap candy is the best.

Ooooh! I'm definitely interested in your review of The Ocean at the End of the Lane! I've been interested in that book forever! I'm also looking forward to the cheap candy tomorrow! ;) And congrats on being a Ravenclaw! It's the only way to be! :P
ReplyDeleteHere's my Weekly Recap!
I liked The Ocean at the End of the Lane. It’s a really short book, too.

I didn't have a great reading week either. Interested to see what you think of Monster Calls. Nachos are always a happy thing!! Have a great week!
ReplyDeleteA Monster Calls is one of my new favorites. I loved it.
DeleteAj @ Read All The Things!
Cheap candy!!! I loved both The Ocean at the End of the Lane and A Monster Calls. Have a great week!
ReplyDeleteI also really liked both of them.
DeleteAj @ Read All The Things!
I feel kinda bad I've read nothing by Patrick Ness, though see his work around.
ReplyDeleteMy reading and writing week was pretty ordinary as well... but I hope to improve on that this coming week!
You totally need to read A Monster Calls. It’s amazing.
DeleteAj @ Read All The Things!
Can't wait to read your review of The Ocean at the End of the Lane, loved that book so much :)
