Weekly Update #36

Welcome!

The Sunday Post is a weekly meme hosted by Kimberly @ Caffeinated Reviewer. 

It’s a chance to share News. A post to recap the past week, showcase books and share news about what is coming up for the week on our blog.

Now that's explained, it's on to my weekly recap!

Today is my birthday!
I'm not doing much to celebrate. We went bowling during the week with the little dude and the professor and I went to see the Freddie Mercury biopic, Bohemian Rhapsody, so that was my birthday wrapped up in advance of my actual birthday.
It was fun though.

The internet is turned on at the house and we're getting there with the unpacking! I'm no longer feeling like I'm being smothered by cardboard. Over the coming weeks, I hope to finish sorting out the house, finish cleaning up the old house to hand back keys and then settle into some normalcy!

Halloween was fun.
This part of the village has loads of houses with kids so we had trick-or-treaters for the first time in almost 5 years! It also meant that for the first time ever the little dude was able to trick-or-treat around his own home rather than having to go to friends or relatives.
He dressed up as a Grim Reaper and had way too much fun getting into character. His parting line (at every flippin' house!) was "I'll be seeing you soon..." with a evil laugh. 😱

FYI
I know I keep saying it but I'm sorry I've been awful with keeping up the blog and visiting with all the goings on but I'm catching up! Seriously, I've spent today reading and binge commenting like a fiend.  Thanks for not holding my recent comment-silence against me! lol

⭐⭐⭐⭐

I should have finished this last week but the arc arrived stupidly late and with everything else I couldn't finish it in time.
Never-the-less, I read it and reviewed it and liked it.
(It was only a couple of days late!)

It's my birthday... And I've wanted this one for a while.

This is another UF series that I've not yet but has been around for years (and is, in fact, ending soon). I saw a review for it and it sounded awesome so I'm finally going to read it!

eARC

I loved Your Echo and JP was an awesome secondary character so when offered the chance to read his story, what was I to do? Say no? Of course not!

NaNoWriMo kicked off!
I mentioned that I'm taking part this year after being goaded (maybe bullied, lol) into it by a friend. Well, it's four days in and I have written words!
I don't know if they're coherent and I'm pretty sure I'm all tell tell tell but I have words!
I'm tweeting about it on a separate twitter. If you're curious you can find my nano account here.

As for anything interesting from around the blogosphere... I have nothing.
I'll catch up, I promise!
I feel like a record stuck on a loop, but I will!
Honest.

We watched Ghostbusters on Halloween.

That's it. That's the first time the TV has been on in over a week.

Apart from that, as mentioned above, I saw Bohemian Rhapsody at the cinema and I really enjoyed it.

Honestly? I have no idea... I'll find my notebook in a box some point soon, I'm sure. 

Have a great week all!
