Oh, man. This week
sucked. Between family drama and it snowing for the umpteenth time, I’m just
ready for this month to be over. I mean, it snowed on the first day of spring!
Granted, I’ve seen snow in the middle of April before, but I haven’t had to
walk in it in a dirty city before. Blugh.
Just a heads up, I
may or may be taking a blogging break in April. Between the family issues and
trying to participate in Camp NaNoWriMo, I’m just kind of feeling a little meh
about the blog. I’ve got some things scheduled, so maybe I can muster up enough
umph to keep posting throughout the month. We shall see.
Fireblood by Elly Blake
Stranded by Bracken Macleod
It was a pretty
low-key book week this week. I took another ARC home from work, and last Friday
during my lunch hour, I bought a copy of Fireblood
from Barnes & Noble. I was going to get a copy of Frostblood too, but I couldn’t justify dropping $40 on two books. I
think I’ll just order that one and the upcoming sequel online.
Oh, and my B&N purchase has me at $40.50 for my book-buying budget. I have $34.50 left to spend, and I don't really think I'm going to be spending that much, if any of it, next week.

What books have
you bought/received lately?
Enjoy your new books. We've had unexpected snow where I am, so I know the feeling!
ReplyDeleteUgh. It's everywhere! ;)
DeleteOOh nice! I really enjoyed Fireblood and cannot wait for the finale! Though had a moment of devastation last week--I think it was--when I got the email saying the release date was pushed from early June to late August! Devastating! Lol! Happy Reading!
ReplyDeleteMy STS will be up tomorrow, so stop by then if you can!
Have a GREAT day!

Huh. I didn't hear anything about the release date. Guess I'll put off reading Fireblood for a while longer.
DeleteOh, I hear you on the weather issue. Hope the new week is better for you. Enjoy your latest haul.
ReplyDeleteIt's getting better now at least. I just hope the snow stops.
DeleteHope the family drama dies down soon - it can be the worst. We had snow on the first day of spring too so I'm hoping that our snow is over for the season as well. Of course, I guess I am lucky as I didn't get hardly anywhere near what others did.
ReplyDeleteI stayed home, so at least I didn't have to walk in it. But still. Gross.
DeleteI need to get to Fireblood myself. I hope everything with the family settles down so you can enjoy the upcoming month. Sorry it was snowing on Spring.
ReplyDeleteI still haven't read it, but I'm glad I have a copy.
DeleteI don't think I could stop myself from spending -so congrats on keeping your budget. Good luck with Camp NaNoWriNo!!

Thanks! I'm pretty proud of not spending. Still one week left in March though.
DeleteSorry about the snow and the drama. I’m thinking about taking a blogging break next month for similar reasons. I hope you love your new books! I have Stranded sitting on my TBR shelf. I’ve heard good things about it.
ReplyDeleteAj @ Read All The Things!
Hope the blogging thing works out for you next month.
DeleteYay for sticking to your budget! Sometimes just making a goal official works. I really need to read Fireblood since I loved Frostblood.
ReplyDeleteThanks!
DeleteSorry to hear about your rough week. I hope things get better for you. Also, I hope you enjoy your new books in the meantime!
ReplyDeleteHere’s my Stacking the Shelves!

Thanks! I hope I enjoy them too. :)
DeleteI am so ready for Spring but we still have a lot of snow. It's okay to take a break if you need it, don't worry about that. It's better than to have things pile up and break down. I hope your family issues will be solved and good luck with NaNo camp!
ReplyDeleteEh. Snow. I'm over it. lol
DeleteFamily drama sucks. Spring has been elusive here too. Hope your upcoming week is better!
ReplyDeleteWeekly Wrap-Up
It does indeed suck. :)
DeleteSometimes you need a break, I hope the family drama gets better. I hope you feel like blogging again after your mini-break. Happy Spring (if it ever get there).

I don't think winter will ever end here. It's like Westeros. #Winteriscoming. Yikes.
DeleteI really hope that your family drama settles down soon. I can imagine how it can go downhill.
ReplyDeleteSeems like a nice haul. I hope you enjoy all of your new books :)
