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, showcase books and things we have received and share news about what is coming up for the week on our blogs.
Well folks, here we are again. I did surprisingly well this past week… at least with actually getting some Netgalley books read and spending some time not reading. I watched the new Gabriel Iglesias special (LOVE) and continued with The Good Place season 2, which is so far so good :).
On the other hand, I was horrible at my main goal: Not borrowing anymore library books.
Last week I read 8 books and 6 graphic novels. I did unfortunately DNF a book too.
Emoji Key
From Weekly TBR — ✌
Novella – 🌱
Graphic novel – 💥

- Princeless, vol. 1 – 4 by Jeremy Whitley 💥
Amazing, empowering read! I’m looking forward to getting my hands on more! - Princeless: Raven the Pirate Princess, vol. 1 by Jeremy Whitley 💥
Female pirate crew out to get Raven’s inheritance back from her brothers. Honestly, I don’t know where to start with how awesome this series is. I love Raven.
- 99 Percent Mine by Sally Thorne
I wasn’t completely taken with this one… - Monster in his Eyes by J.M. Darhower 🍰
- Heart of the Fae by Emma Hamm 🍰 ✌
- Song for a Whale by Lynne Kelly ✌ 🐲
Honestly, best book of the week right here.
- The Consequence of Falling by Claire Contreras 🍰
- DeadEndia by Hamish Steele 💥
One of the most diverse graphic novels I’ve read. - We Told Six Lies by Victoria Scott 🐲
- The Mistake by Elle Kennedy ✌
- Trick by Natalia Jaster 🍰
Just… wow. A great book to end on my week on. Thanks so much to Raven for encouraging me to read this book! Without you I might have removed it from my TBR a long time ago and missed how amazing it is.
»Did Not Finish
I read 44% of The Dead Queens Club (✌ 🐲) plus skimmed the last 4% to see how it ended. I am so glad I didn’t push myself to finish this one. I know some people really like this one, but it just didn’t work for me 😔
»Currently Reading
nada. Starting this week off with a clean slate 😀

Edelweiss Recently Approved:
nada — I actually haven’t looked at books here all week. I’ll get back eventually.
Past the Publication (I’m Late!):
Yeah, I knew this would happen. I did read one book off this list and I read like 3 books that were to be published this past week, but it wasn’t enough.
Today
I definitely want to read Odd Thomas. I read the first chapter and was captivated by the events taking place, so that will be first. After that… maybe Urusei Yatsura, vol. 1, The Deceivers, The Score, or Dare. I need to work on my Netgalley approvals, but I have so many library loans currently it is a bit overwhelming AND my Kindle Unlimited subscription ends on the 24th. So, as you can see I’m being pulled from all different directions… this is probably why I haven’t slowed down much with my reading.
Princeless series looks like fun! Enjoy your Sunday!

I’m so glad you loved Trick! I can’t wait for you to read Dare! I recently finished 99 percent mine and I was kind of disappointed. It wasn’t as amazing as The Hating Game. I enjoyed it but didn’t love it.

Yeah, 99 wasn’t that great… Such a bummer.
Trick though… Wow. I love all those characters. Once I finish my current book I’ll read Dare. I want to be able to read Nicu’s book as soon as it comes out 🙂

Dare was my second favorite in this series! Some scenes were dragged but I still loved it till the end! I hope you love it too! I can’t wait to read Nicu’s book! He’s a supporting character in Lie and I hope you enjoy it when you get around to it.

I always love seeing your Sunday Post posts, and I’m so tempted to start double-posting on Sundays and combining this with my Lows & Highs, because it just seems so much fun. 😅 Good luck on catching up on your recent releases! I’ve missed the release dates for so many January and February ARCs so far this year and it makes me so sad. I just need more hours in a day!
