sunday post #40


The Sunday Post is a weekly meme hosted by Caffeinated Reviewer. It's a chance to recap posts from the past week and tease upcoming content, as well as share new books, reading challenge progress, and anything else you've come across in the last seven days.

I can't believe the year is practically over! Christmas went well and was a very quiet affair, just my parents and I. That's usually how we celebrate and I love the low-key tone the entire day has, rather than spending long hours stressing over meals, outfits, and entertaining distant relatives. Holidays still take a bit of preparation though, so between the weekday timing of Christmas and the lingering need to finish some projects before moving on to my new job, it was plenty busy this week.

Beyond my gradual re-read of Goblet of Fire I got very little reading done and almost no blog hopping; I'm hoping to catch up today, along with the necessary errands and chores, before starting another wonky work week. I have Monday and Tuesday off, with no big plans for New Year's Eve, then make a quick work trip on Wednesday. Honestly, I'm just excited at the prospect of getting back into the usual swing of things and settling into my new office for good! It feels like I've run around like a crazy person for the last month, and there's no better time to start fresh than on January 1st!

BOOKS I READ


Nothing, really. My re-read of Goblet of Fire is nearly over, then I need to set aside nostalgia in favor of a couple of early January ARCs I have yet to read!

LAST WEEK ON THE BLOG
COMING UP ON THE BLOG

Blog Tour: White Stag by Kara Barbieri — Author Q&A
Book Review: Slayer by Kiersten White (I dozed off and didn't schedule it in time for this week, but it's ready to go for 2019!)

BOOK HAULS

Nothing! I did get a boatload of bookstore gift cards for Christmas, though. Luckily they were all to the same shop, so I think I'm going to hold onto them for something special.

AROUND THE BLOGOSPHERE

Again, nothing :( I've been a bad, busy blogger! I'm settling in this afternoon to catch up on all the marvelous posts I missed this week and will be tweeting out links for those I would have featured here. Keep an eye on my Twitter (@darkmaterialss) so you don't miss out!

What are your plans for New Year's Eve? Do the holidays leave you in need of a nap too? Drop a note in the comments and say hello!
