The Sunday Post is a weekly meme hosted by Kimba @ Caffeinated Book Reviewer ~ It�s a chance to share news ~ A post to recap the past week on my blog and share news about what�s coming up...

What�s been happening since my last Sunday Post:

NaNoWriMo (sort of): It�s been almost a month since I last posted a Sunday Post. I�ve been working a bit more lately, and I�m also participating in NaNoWriMo in a roundabout way. I�m not worrying about wordcount, but I�m just trying to write every day (and if I miss a day, make it up by writing longer on another day). And I�ve been successful, so I guess it�s going well!

Another random tidbit that has nothing to do with anything: My daughter Jade just told me that every time she sees the cover of THE LUMINARIES (which has been sitting on the end table in the family room since I finished it) she has to remind herself that it�s an animal skull and not� (warning � once you read this, you won�t be able to unsee it) a cuddly elephant. Take a look and tell me you don�t see it now too��

What I Read:

I read The Luminaries by Susan Dennard. I have no idea why I waited so long to read it. Loved this book! I finished listening to Ophie�s Ghosts by Justina Ireland. This book is an impactful historical fiction paranormal mystery � it has so much going for it! Then I listened to The Marvellers by Dhonielle Clayton. Kids who crave magic school books will be enthralled with this one! Next I listened to Instructions for Dancing by Nicola Yoon. I bought this one using an Audible credit a long time ago. I have no idea why it took me so long to listen to it. (This seems to be a theme!) I really enjoyed the romance and humor in this one. Finally, I started listening to The Heaven & Earth Grocery Store by James McBride. This book was voted the Barnes & Noble Book of the Year, so I thought it would be good to read it. (I hate it when people ask me about a big B&N book and I have to say, �I haven�t read it, but I�ve heard it�s fantastic!�) I�m not far into it yet, but it�s gotten such rave reviews, I�m excited to listen!

What I Watched:

I�ve added Ink Master to my random reality TV watching.

Here�s what you may have missed on the blog since my last Sunday Post:

NEW Pre-order Campaigns�

Head over to my Pre-Order Campaigns Page to see ALL of the pre-order deals, including pictures!!

I�m sorry, guys, I know I haven�t been keeping on top of these, but it�s now almost 10:30 and I�ve been up since before 6:00 (served on worship team at church and then went straight to work). And since I haven�t been sleeping much at all lately, I just can�t manage to stay awake much longer. I�ll try to update the list soon!
