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 started off the week still sickly from a sinus infection. I don't remember much about Monday. Tuesday, we normally spend the day with my parents, but my dad is having surgery this coming Tuesday and we didn't wnat to risk him getting the sickness that we were dealing with. I did have to do grocery pick up Tuesday afternoon and get our dog's flea/tick/heartworm medication from the vet. Tuesday evening, the big kids had belt ceremony. They both earned their green belts in Taekwondo. Wednesday, I ended up keeping Little Boy home from school because he was coughing worse. And it gave me a little more chance to rest too. We found out on Monday or Tuesday that Husband's cousin died suddenly of an aortic aneurysm. Thursday, we had a field trip in Birmingham at the McWayne Center with our co-op. That was a lot of fun. We were there from about 10 am until 2 pm. Thursday evening we went to the visitation for Husband's cousin. I've never seen so many people at a visitation before. The line was out of the church sanctuary, down a few hallways, and back, and then all the way out of the door to the outside. We stood in line for over 2 hours to see the immediate family. Friday we had a normal school day, but it felt like a ping pong match between all three kids against me at one time. I ended the day exhausted and may have yelled a time or two which I really try hard not to do. Husband took a half day off work to go with his mom to the funeral. Saturday, we had a girl's afternoon at a friend's house playing cards. I took Big Girl with me to play with a couple of other little girls.

Goodreads description--TA great primal power has risen. The Queen of Flesh and Fire has become the Primal of Blood and Bone—the true Primal of Life and Death. And the battle Casteel, Poppy, and their allies have been fighting has only just begun. Gods are awakening across Iliseeum and the mortal realm, readying for the war to come.But when Poppy falls into stasis, Cas faces the very real possibility that the dire, unexpected consequences of what she is becoming could take her away from him. Cas is given some advice, though—something he plans to cling to as he waits to see her beautiful eyes open once more: Talk to her.
And so, he does. He reminds Poppy how their journey began, revealing things about himself that only Kieran knows in the process. But it’s anybody’s guess what she’ll wake to or exactly how much of the realm and Cas will have changed when she does.
#1 New York Times bestselling author Jennifer L. Armentrout revisits Poppy and Casteel’s epic love story in the next installment of the Blood and Ash series. But this time, Hawke gets to tell the tale.
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!
