Sunday Post - 28 & Stacking the Shelves - 1

This week I'm doing something different. My decision to try Stacking the Shelves versus In My Mailbox has nothing to do with last years drama. This might not be a permanent switch for me, but I'm trying it out. I'll keep you all posted.

The Sunday Post is a weekly meme hosted by Kimba @ The Caffeinated Book Reviewer ~this meme was inspired in part by ~ In My Mailbox~ It's a chance to share News. A post to recap the past week, showcase books and things we have received and share news about what is coming up for the week on our blog.

This week has been good. My husband is getting over the flu. He actually ended up with the flu, bronchitis, and a sinus infection. Bless his bones! But he's feeling better now.

This was my first full week back at work, and it sure did feel long. But I've managed to squeeze in a good bit of reading so far. I just keep wondering when this roll I'm on is going to end.

Monday: Review of The Sea of Tranquility by Katja Millay (5 Stars)

Tuesday: Top 10 Bookish Goals for 2013

Wednesday: Waiting on Pivot Point
