Sunday Post & Stacking the Shelves - 07/04/21

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.

Most days are bleeding together. We are doing about the same thing every day. I did have my first hair cut since September 2020 on Wednesday. I intended to get another cut in December before Baby Boy was born, but my stylist had surgery and was out of commision. I contacted her in March, but she was playing catch up and the first available she had was for June 30th. I feel so much better having it cut. But man that threw my whole day's schedule off. Baby Boy is doing well. He's 5.5 months old by now. He's still such a good baby. I believe he'll be cutting his top two teeth soon. The older kids have been struggling with not being home. Renovations are going so slowly. I'm thankful progress is being made at all. But man it's disheartening to go this slow. At this rate, the kids will be back in school well before we're finished. Thursday my mom did a version of VBS with the kids. There's also been a fox creeping into my parent's backyard. I think it's a mother with two babies. Husband had an extra day off work on Friday from his new job. My parents left to go visit my Nanny. She's up and down with her health. It rained Friday so we didn't get out to do much. Saturday, Husband had to run by our house to mow grass so I had the kiddos to myself. Today, we get together with Husband's family to celebrate 4th of July but also to remember his dad that passed away 6 years ago.

Goodreads description--Twenty-eight year-old Cassie Strega can’t escape fate.

All she wants is to live a normal, quiet life delivering the babies in her small town. But when she discovers she comes from a lineage of witches, her life becomes extraordinary—in the gravely dangerous type of way.

Then, she’s reunited with her first love.

Orion, the sultry Fae warrior who broke her heart years before, is searching for a baby. Not just any baby, but the queen of the Fae who will one day lead them in their final battle against the demons determined to rule the world. The same baby who has been calling to Cassie for help in her dreams.

Fighting the intense attraction of their former blood bond, Cassie and Orion work together to find the child. But when the heartbreak that nearly destroyed Cassie nine years before looms once more, she’ll have to decide whether getting involved in the supernatural war is worth losing everything, including her life.

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!
