Sunday Post & Stacking the Shelves - 9/30/18

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.

Another uneventful week. I've really been thinking about doing some mommy tips posts--no more than once a month. I know that's totally out of my book blogging lane here, and husband is encouraging me to start a new blog for that. But truth be told, I don't want to maintain two blogs. But even more, I don't want to lose subscribers and followers from Somewhere Only We Know either. So for now I'm sitting on my thumbs. I finally read a book this week. I hadn't been in the mood to read and the review books I have coming up for publication soon have been overwhelming me. They're books I want to read, just not ones that I'm in the mood for right now. Baby Boy is 11 months old today. I truly cannot believe it. Both kids have birthdays in October...which starts tomorrow! Speaking of, my annual All Things Halloween month long event starts tomorrow.

Goodreads description--Meet Oakley Ford-teen celebrity, renowned pop star, child of famous movie stars, hottie with millions of fangirls… and restless troublemaker. On the surface he has it all, but with his home life disintegrating, his music well suddenly running dry, and the tabloids having a field day over his outrageous exploits, Oakley's team decides it's time for an intervention. The result: an image overhaul, complete with a fake girlfriend meant to show the world he's settled down.

Enter seventeen-year-old Vaughn Bennett-devoted sister, part-time waitress, the definition of "normal." Under ordinary circumstances she'd never have taken this gig, but with her family strapped for cash, she doesn't have much of a choice. And for the money Oakley's team is paying her, she figures she can put up with outlandish Hollywood parties and a team of publicists watching her every move. So what if she thinks Oakley's a shallow, self-centered jerk? It's not like they're going to fall for each other in real life…right?

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!

  1. I do the multiple blog thing and WOW is it a challenge. Dedicating time to one means others are neglected. I still haven't managed the balance!

  2. I couldn’t imagine managing two blogs. The one I have sometimes feels like a full-time job. Enjoy your new book!
