The Sunday Post [68]

 

The Sunday Post is a weekly meme hosted by Kimberly at the Caffeinated Reviewer! It's an opportunity to share news, post a recap for the previous week, showcase books, and highlight what's planned for the week ahead.

News:

It's been a slow week for me. My daughter - or possibly a coworker - got me sick. I'm finally feeling human again and getting back to my daily activities. I probably went through three tissue boxes last week, lol. I've sneezed more times than I can count, and seriously considered adult diapers for a minute (moms will understand this 😅). I will say that being sick did force me to relax, but now I feel like I have soooo much to do and catch up on around the house.

What I'm Currently Reading:

🎧 Lightlark (Lightlark, #1) by Alex Aster

A Language of Dragons by S.F. Williamson

Things We Do in the Dark by Jennifer Hillier

Same as last week! I should finish all three in the next day or two though. I jumped ahead to She Doesn't Have a Clue to try and finish it before its pub date, but I struggled with it and ended up posting my review a few days after its release.

What I Plan on Reading Next:

The Encanto's Daughter (The Encanto's Daughter, #1) by Melissa de la Cruz

We Would Never by Tova Mirvis

What I'm Watching:

My husband and I started playing Diablo IV and have really been enjoying ourselves! I don't like that you have to play it online though. I wish we could play on our own without worrying about a stable internet connection. It's so frustrating to be disconnected when you're in the middle of a task. Unfortunately, most new games seem to be doing this. We're no longer paying to own a game, but we're paying to participate in them instead (something my husband said). 

We've also been watching Blue Lock and Haikyu!! Both have been great! We've been watching Blue Lock with the kids, since it's supposed to be appropriate for their age. However, in the newest season there have been some questionable characters that say and do things I don't feel are appropriate for young children. I think most of those references have gone over their heads, but now my husband and I need to watch them ahead of time. It sort of ruined the family fun we were having. Haikyu!! is one we watch on our own since it's subbed and the kids can't read fast enough to follow along.
