The Sunday Post #74 - Goodbye August (+Instagram Giveaway Info)

The Sunday Post is a weekly meme hosted by Kimberly @ Caffeinated Book Reviewer
It's a chance to share news~ A post to recap the past week on your blog and showcase books and things you received, share news about what is coming up on your blog for the week ahead, and more.

Another uneventful week! Woot!
(Although I am keeping tabs on Hurricane Harvey... I hope anyone here that is in its path is safe!)
Plus there was the eclipse which I did get to see some of from home. :)
I've been gardening, reading, and painting a little but not much of anything else. I can't believe August is almost over and I'll be spending the next few days trying to catch up on everything so I don't get super behind in September. 


NEW TO MY SHELVES
I won both of these on good old Goodreads .
And I won this coloring book from the author!

CURRENTLY READING

CURRENTLY LISTENING
My loan for IT expired an it will probably be another couple of months on hold before I get it back so I started The Fireman by Joe Hill. This one seems pretty good so far. 

CURRENTLY WATCHING
I watched both Death Note and What Happened to Monday this week and enjoyed both but I really need a new tv show to watch!

Bookstagram

  1. I really want to get the audio cd of It as I just love that book so much. Bit pricey though! I have the paperback of The Fireman but who knows when I'll get to it!

  2. I'm glad your week was uneventful! We are sharing our town with Harvey currently and (honestly) wishing he'd spend time somewhere else.

  4. I loved The Handmaid's Tale...read it twice, and saw the Hulu show. I am also curious about Joe Hill's books.

    Enjoy your week, and thanks for visiting my blog.

  5. Crazy how fast this month flew by right?! I feel like I just can't keep up sometimes. I watched What Happenend To Monday too this week. Strange movie, but I enjoyed it.
    Have a great week and happy reading.

  6. Sounds like a pretty good week! I watched What Happened To Monday and thought it was good- I wasn't sure about it at first but after it got going I kinda liked it.

    Love those covers for Age of and The Red Sun.
