The Sunday Post is a weekly meme hosted @ Caffeinated Book Reviewer. It’s
a chance to share news ~ A post to recap the past week on your blog,
showcase books and things we have received and share news about what is
coming up on our blog for the week ahead. See rules here: Sunday Post Meme. I have several things coming up this week, so decided to do this plus Stacking the Shelves today, as well as including an update for my Tackle My TBR Read-a-thon that I’m participating in.
Last week on the blog:
- It’s Monday, What Are You Reading?
- Review: Unravel Me (Shatter Me #2) by Tahereh Mafi
- Waiting on Wednesday: Unleashed (Uninvited #2) by Sophie Jordan
- Tackle Your TBR Read-a-thon Update
- The Friday 56 #11
- Review: H2O by Virginia Bergin
Only 2 reviews this week, not great. And I’ve really only got 1 book that has been on my TBR pile and it is the book I’m currently reading. But I have completed one for my September is for Sequels Challenge.
This week on the blog:
I really must get going on my TBR pile. I have many sequels that will fit both challenges. I will have to take a break this week maybe from the e-galleys and get more TBR pile books done. So that is my goal for this week. I also have an e-book I need to get read before my stop on the Debut Authors tour next week. Also, I won free passes to an early showing of The Maze Runner movie this Tuesday night, and so I’ll probably talk about that as well!
Stacking the Shelves is hosted by Tynga’s Reviews.
It is a way for us to share the new books we have collected. Lots to share this week! So let’s get started!
E-galley from Edelweiss:
This one doesn’t have a cover photo yet, but it sounded really good. It is Scripted by Maya Rock. I did get denied an e-galley on Netgalley I believe, but I have since emailed the publisher and it seems like it might be possible they will give me a second chance. I don’t like how Netgalley won’t let you change things. Because I’m not a teacher anymore, I’m a school librarian, and I wish I could put that as my first qualification.
Free Nook books:

Okay, the first one is so not something I really read that much, but the synopsis sounded kind of fun, and it was free. The second one I’ve seen around the blogosphere, again, free, so got it. The last one I’d had marked on my Goodreads TBR for awhile, so I snatched it when I saw it free.
Gift:
You might remember me mentioning that I had to take the Praxis test for my library job last week. Well, it was on a computer, and so I was able to get my results as soon as I was finished, and I passed! My co-librarian surprised me with this as a gift on Friday. She chose it because I’d talked about going to visit my sister in NYC and seeing Central Park. It is a beautiful coffee table book with a lot of the history of Central Park. I’ve of course paged through it, but will have to do more in depth reading eventually.
Stripped covers from bookstore:

I explained about the strip covers in last week's Stacking the Shelves, but it was neat to get these two. I just need the one in between them I think. Borrowed:
As I mentioned earlier, I just finished Unravel Me so now I am so ready to read the final book! Another perk at the bookstore where I work is being able to check out hardcover books from the store. And that is what I did with this one. Purchased:

I loved Ignite Me and hope you do too Lisa. I need to get caught up on some series, final books of trilogies myself. I keep adding too many books and the summer has been so busy!
I loved Unravel Me so I'm sure I'll love Ignite Me as well. I actually had a good July for reading since I was recovering from surgery, but since then, as soon as school started back up, my reading time has just disappeared!
I'm going to have to go grab Storm while it's free. I've already read it but I might want to re-read it in the future and it would be nice to have a copy. 🙂
I hope you get some great reading done this week and some sequels in there too! That's my goal this week – more sequels.
Well if you've already read it and like it enough to download it, then I'm glad I downloaded it! Just have to get to it. Yeah, I have to get to more of my sequels and TBR. Tonight's plan is to read, read, read!
H2O looks great, I was not familiar with that one, but liking a good survival tale I may have to get it. Nice review. I'm curious about the Maze Runner movie too, haven't read the book but heard good things. It will be nice to see what book bloggers think of it.
I really enjoyed the book, so looking forward to the movie. Thanks for stopping by!
Great books this week! your nook freebies Look really good 🙂
I need to do better on my TBR too :/
Happy Reading!

It is the perfect job, well almost. I'm hoping to be back in a middle school library at some point.
I heard Ignite me was very good. Enjoy and have a great week !
Well book 1 and 2 were, so surely it won't be disappointing like book 3 in another trilogy that was really popular. 🙂 Thanks for visiting!
