Sunday Post - 188 & Stacking the Shelves - 135

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.

I'm doing horrible on my March reading. I've only finished one book so far. That also means that my March Take Control Goals are so far out of reach. But hey, every book counts, right? I've started like 3 books, but I guess Morning Star gave me a book hangover. Nothing seems good enough to follow it up. I started a post partum workout on Thursday. Man, I'm sore. But I'm so proud of myself for finally starting something. Baby Girl is 5 months old today. I cannot believe it. She's also cut her second tooth. Allegiant slipped up on me. I hope to see it in the theaters, but I'm not sure when yet. Husband and I started Fuller House! Love it so far! We also started Daredevil Season 2.

Goodreads description--One class assignment. One second chance at love. The school player is all in. Now he needs to win back the sweet commitment girl who's forever owned his heart.

Justin Carter has a secret. He's not the total player Fairfield Academy believes him to be. Not really. In fact, he used to be a one-woman guy...and his feelings for her never went away. Too bad he broke her heart three years ago and made sure to ruin any chance she'd ever forgive him.

Peyton Williams is a liar. She pretends to be whole, counting down the days until graduation and helping her parents at the family ranch. But the truth is, she's done everything she can to get over Justin, and salvation is just around the corner. With graduation one short month away, she'll soon break free from the painful memories and start her life fresh. Of course, she has to get through working with him on one last assignment first.

For Justin, nothing ever felt as right as being with Peyton, and now that fate's given him a shot at redemption, he's determined to make the most of it. And for Peyton...well, Justin Carter has always been her kryptonite

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!
