The Sunday Post



The Sunday Post is a weekly meme hosted by Kim at The Caffeinated Book Reviewer. It is a chance to share blog news and happenings as well as share those releases we received during the week. 

Another week has gone by and we are getting closer and closer to summer and honestly, I can not wait. No more school for three glorious months, no homework or bedtimes (okay sort of bedtimes), the days are warmer, the nights longer....I just love this time of year.

I don't know about you but my girls are seriously burnt out on school by the time May rolls around. They are just ready for it to be over and it has been torture getting in all the homework, book reports and assignments they have been assigning to the kids. It feels like the teachers try to cram in three months worth of stuff in the last four weeks of school. I am so over it and looking forward to more reading time.




And this week you can look forward to the following:

Review: The Lost by Sarah Beth Durst

Review: Push by Eve Silver

My WoW Pick of the Week

Review: #scandal by Sarah Ockler

Review: 17 First Kisses by Rachel Allen

Review: Take Back the Skies by Lucy Saxon





As always a huge thank you to all the authors and publishers for the amazing books. I am so excited about all of them and can't wait to dive in!!


Here is what I received this week:

  2. I am so excited for Summer also...I am not looking forward to the heat, because AZ is horribly hot. This is probably the first summer I am not super excited for because my oldest graduates from HS, and that means she's moving on. I am looking forward to no alarm clocks, and no routine for a while. Although I am a routine nazi, so that is even hard for me, but it's nice to not "have" to do anything or be anywhere :)

  4. Great books, I can't wait to read your reviews! Fortunately more reading time will come soon, have fun! I love reading a book on a warm summer day, just being lazy and lounging.

  5. Haha, yeah, May used to be my bleh-time of the year too. It was the effect of all that sun shining through classroom windows, and brids chirping, and me wanting to be out there enjoying it all instead of in class. And I'd think it's almost summer, which meant vacation, that I really, really want by that time of the year cause I so fed up with the school year bu then, lol... also applied with homework and everything, lol. May is tough when you're in school. Which always made me wonder why teachers felt the need to stress us out with more stuff than ever, I mean I used to wonder, don't they feel the same as we do? Lol.

    Ghost House looks very promising, right? Great grabs!

  8. We have a couple more weeks of school left here too. I'm both happy and sad for the school year to be over for my son. I was contemplating Six Feet Over It ... I'll let you read it first. ;)

  12. I have mixed emotions about the school year being over, I know my daughter is going to miss her little preschool and I will too. I won't be getting as much done with a three and five year old underfoot all summer, but I am looking forward to warm weather.

    1. It can be harder when they are younger, I agree Heidi. But I do love summer and I love being able to stay up late (when the girls are already in bed) and reading late into the night (or morning in some cases) and not have to worry about being up by a certain time. ;)

  13. Oh...I have Suddenly Last Summer and The Promise. Those are going to both be great books to enjoy this summer. You are close to being able to mark one more week of school off the calendar. I know you and your kids are counting down the days.
