In My Reading Life
Last week was #AutumnReadathon, so I read a ton of short books. I
finished The Girl Who Drank the Moon
by Kelly Barnhill. Then I reread When
Zachary Beaver Came to Town by Kimberly Willis Holt. Then I read The Haunting of Hill House by Shirley
Jackson and Fatty Legs by Christy
Jordan-Fenton, et al. Right now, I’m reading All the Birds, Singing by Evie Wyld.
In The Rest Of My Life
Five things that made me happy last week:
- I tried caramel M&Ms. They mostly taste like sticky regular M&Ms, but I like them.
- #AutumnReadathon has been fun. I love going on Twitter and seeing what everybody is reading.
- I only have 6 unread books on my TBR shelf right now. I’ve been so good about not buying a zillion books. A few of my unread books are fat bastards, though. It’ll probably take me months to finish them.
- I’ve been watching Halloween-themed baking competitions on TV. Halloween and food are two of my favorite things ever.
- 500 Bloglovin’ followers!
Take care of yourselves and be
kind to each other! See you around the blogosphere!
Yay on 500 blog followers. That is awesome. Good on you on down to 6 unread books. I too have been watching Halloween baking shows too. Have a great week!
ReplyDelete6 TBR books?? To be fair my TBR list is purely digital but also it's like a hundred books long. Also, congrats on the 500 bloglovin' followers!! :)
ReplyDeleteMy sunday post
OMG congrats on the 500 BlogLovin followers! What's your secret????? (It's black magic, isn't it? C'mon, you can tell me! Lol.) XD
ReplyDeleteCongrats on 500 followers!
ReplyDeleteI feel like the Food Network is only showing Halloween baking competitions for the past few weeks! They're fun, though.
You had me at caramel. It's a fact. I will eat it if there is caramel involved. Congratulations on your 500! #goals ☺️
ReplyDeleteYay to 500 followers...and having only 6 books on your TBR. I can't say the same...although I am whittling away at the new ones I have purchased this year.
ReplyDeleteEnjoy your week, and here are MY WEEKLY UPDATES
I am a little addicted to the Caramel M&M's. Luckily, they aren't too easy to find in the stores here yet. Only 6 unread books on your shelf? I wish I could say the same . . . Maybe someday.
ReplyDeleteI hope you have a great week! Happy reading!
The girl who drank the moon seems pretty interesting!
ReplyDeleteHave a nice week!
I love your 5 things that made you happy last week. Congrats on getting 500 bloglovin followers. I hope you have a wonderful reading week filled with awesome books. Happy reading.
ReplyDeleteOoooh! Did you like The Girl Who Drank the Moon? That's been on my list forever! And wow! Only 6 TBR?? That is an impressive accomplishment! XD
ReplyDeleteHere's my Weekly Recap!
Congrats on 500 followers on Blog Lovin'!! That's so excited. I need to get my hands on The Girl Who Drank the Moon and also some caramel M&Ms like right now. Hope you have a good week!
ReplyDeleteNow that our local book store is re-opened, I've been buying a bunch of books. But I have to focus on CYBILS reading first. Come see what I'm reading
ReplyDeleteOn my TBR there are multiple fat bastards, thin bastards and lots in between! *sighs* Ooh haven't tried these new M&Ms...must look out for them!
ReplyDeleteSix books on your TBR! I bow to your greatness! ;-)
ReplyDeleteCongrats on reaching 500 followers! That's such a milestone!
Lucky you with only a few books in your TBR! Wow.
ReplyDeleteAw well done on 500 bloglovin' followers, and on not buying all the books! Go you :)
ReplyDeleteCongrats on the 500 Bloglovin followers! I don't think I'll ever be down to just 6 books on my tbr list. I seem to keep adding to it. Thanks for stopping by my blog. Hope you have a great week!
ReplyDelete6 unread books on your TBR list! You are one disciplined chick...:-) Congrats on 500 Bloglovin followers.
ReplyDeleteI would be happy to get under 2000 TBR books. I can't imagine having only six. I will be so glad when Halloween is over and my beloved Food Network stops doing Halloween themed shows 24/7. Come see my week here. Happy reading!
ReplyDeleteI hope you loved your books. It's been a long time since the last time I read The Haunting of Hill House. Caramel M&Ms sound amazing right now.
ReplyDeleteWow, congrats to 500 followers, that's awesome!
ReplyDeleteAnd also welcome to the TBR under 10 club! I am still trying to get rid of my TBR for good until the end of the year so I can start buying again :D But the last books all seem to be bricks^^ I see how I go with that!
Caramel M&Ms.. I didn't know they existed :D
Oh, I haven't tried the caramel m&m's yet. I need to give them a try. :)
ReplyDeleteHave a great week!
Yay for 500 followers! That's great! I will stick to my peanut M&Ms :) I am trying to imagine only having 6 books on my tbr shelf. Good for you!
ReplyDeleteCongratulations on 500 Bloglovin followers! I am about half way there, so maybe one day. Also congrats on only having 6 books on your TBR. That must feel really great!
ReplyDeleteHave a great week and happy reading!
Sounds like you had a great week! And congratulations on 500 Bloglovin followers. That's awesome ;)
ReplyDeleteHave a great week and happy reading!
I didn't know caramel m&ms were a thing?? And oh gosh, I've also gotten hooked on the Halloween baking shows, haha. I'm kind of sad they won't be on anymore now that Halloween is over!
ReplyDeleteSounds like you got a lot read for that readathon. I don't think I've seen caramel m&ms here before, good to hear they were good. I didn't realize Halloween baking competitions were a thing, sounds fun. I like cooking, but actually hardly ever watch cooking shows.
