That time of the week again. Time for my Sunday/Monday Post. I'll be linking up to:

It's Monday, What Are You Reading?
This will probably be my last Sunday/Monday post for 2024. I'll be spending time with my family for Christmas and won't have time to craft a post. I will still have reviews on my blog, so please stop by and visit. I just won't have time for one of these posts until 2025. At this point, I'm worried about when I will get to go my reading challenge wrap up and sign up posts, which always go live on 12/31 and 1/1 respectively. But I'm sure I will get it figured out.
And how weird is it to think we are almost to 2025?
Let's see - this past week. Not too much going on, honestly. I'm almost done with all our fiscal year end deadlines at work. It's been interesting trying to juggle everything this past week, but it wasn't as crazy stressful as it could have been, which I'm thankful for.
Christmas presents I'd ordered for people arrived this week. Got to purchase the Kindle books for my aunt (to be delivered on 12/26), and then start wrapping presents. Got a lot to do this coming week.
But I'll start on that on Sunday. As I'm typing this Saturday morning, I've got game day in a couple of hours. And some reading I want to do before that. So let's get to it.

Teasing What's Coming on the Blog:
Book Haul:
I do have two books to tell you about. Well, one short story and one book.
I've been keeping in eye on Gregg Hurwitz's short story "The Recital" for a while now. It's in his Orphan X universe, but focuses a bit more on some of the side characters. It's free from now until Christmas, so naturally, I snagged it. It's ebook only. Of course, I've had another similar short story from him for a while and haven't gotten to it yet. So hopefully, I can change that soon.
What I'm Currently Reading:
As teased last week, I'm now reading Unraveled, book 9.5 in Shannon Messenger's Keeper of the Lost Cities. It's middle grade fantasy, and a short book from her - only 400 pages. I'm hoping to get a bit more read before I leave for game day with the goal of finishing it up tomorrow before I start wrapping presents.
If that happens, Monday, I'll start on I'll Bee Home for Christmas. Told you I was looking forward to it. Plus, I need to get started on it if I am going to get it reviewed before Christmas, which is the current plan. Fortunately, these books are usually fast reads, so that helps.
That's it for me. If I don't talk to you in the next couple of weeks, have a Merry Christmas or a Happy Holiday if you celebrate something else. And have a Happy New Year!
Wishing you a merry Christmas, and a happy new year!
ReplyDeleteI was way behind in Christmas and then we did a mad binge shopping spree and mailed everything off. Now I feel good!
ReplyDeleteMerry Christmas!
I didn't know you could schedule delivery for Kindle books! That's brillant. Hope your holidays are fun and you enjoy family time.
ReplyDeleteHow nice of you to gift ebooks to your aunt. I'm sure she'll be delighted. I gifted a new Paperwhite to a relative and only hope they have time to use it well! Have a good week.
ReplyDeleteHave a wonderful Christmas with your family!!!!
