Sunday Post - 87

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 was a pretty fantabulous week. I was off work on Friday for some much needed relaxation. I'm also off work tomorrow too. Yesterday, Husband and I enlisted to the help of my nephew to help us around the yard with some chores. However, this has been another week where I haven't gotten any new books. It's kind of odd to have two of these weeks in a row. It really hasn't been planned. I've been trying to be slightly picky about what books I request for review lately, and the new releases I'm dying for just haven't released quite yet.

THIS PAST WEEK:

Monday: Review of Lila and Ethan: Always and Forever (The Secret, # 4.5) by Jessica Sorensen (3 Stars)
Tuesday: Top Ten Popular Authors I've Never Read
Wednesday: Waiting on Nash (Marked Men, # 4) by Jay Crownover
Thursday: Review of Blindness by Ginger Scott (2 Stars)
Friday: Review of Takedown Twenty (Stephanie Plum, # 20) by Janet Evanovich (3 Stars) & Happy 3rd Blogoversary - TO ME! and Giveaway (Ends March 15th)

UPCOMING THIS WEEK:

Monday: Review of Undeclared (Woodlands, # 1) by Jen Frederick
Tuesday: Top Ten All-Time Favorite Books
Wednesday: Waiting on Wednesday
Thursday: Review of Unspoken (Woodlands, # 2) by Jen Frederick

    2) Inhuman (Fetch, # 1) by Kat Falls
    3) Kiss of Fire (Imdalind, # 1) by Rebecca Ethington
    4) The Evolution of Mara Dyer (Mara Dyer, # 2) by Michelle Hodkin

    11) Passion (Fallen, # 3) by Lauren Kate

So tell me...since I've read Shatter Me (Shatter Me, # 1) by Tahereh Mafi, should I really read the novellas Destroy Me (Shatter Me, # 1.5) and Fracture Me (Shatter Me, # 2.5)? What do you think?

That's it for my shelves and recaps of my past and upcoming week. What did you add to your shelves this week? Any bookish news you want to talk about? Let me know!
