The Sunday Post 7/21/19



Hello! So I have not been as active in the book blogging community lately and I want to get back into this blog with more than just one post a week here. The Sunday Post is hosted by @caffeinatedbookreviewer.

Off the blog

I had a pretty busy week. Last Sunday, my dad and I went to a concert to see Caissie Levy, one of my favorite Broadway performers, and currently Elsa in Broadway's Frozen, with The Ocean City Pops. We had gone down early, played mini golf, and gotten dinner at a new restaurant to the Broadway this summer. If you ever find yourself in Ocean City I recommend KPop, we both had the rice bowls. The concert was amazing, and I  was so happy I went. The other big event was Jersey Boys in Atlantic City for my sister's birthday. We went to the show as a family on her birthday. I had a good time, but I feel that the second act of the musical could be tightened a bit. I was in a competition in an online community last week, and I had a great time writing blogs for the community and I found it so much fun.

Books I'm Reading

It's been several weeks months even since I've done this meme. I finished Tuck Everlasting several weeks ago. At this time, I am 79% done Fangirl for the third time and I am still enjoying the story just as much as I did the first time. Will Grayson Will Grayson I meant to finish in June, but I got side tracked by other books, so I'm 85% done that I plan on finish that this week, Yesterday, I started The Adventure Zone (The Adventure Zone Graphic Novels # 2) The Murder on the Rockport Limited.  I came into the well known podcast, The Adventure Zone, after this story but I am enjoying this novel so far. I'm 37 pages in, or one chapter in. 

Plans for next week

The only post I had last week was Top Ten Tuesdays, so I didn't want to link that as it's easy to find.

Monday- BookEnding Summer Post 2/3. I'm not sure if I want to do a booktag or a discussion based post, but I know that I will be doing something for this event tomorrow.

Tuesday- Top Ten Tuesday- X settings I want to see more of. I say X because I'm not sure how many will be on the post.

Wednesday- Can't Wait Wednesday

Thursday- Book Tag? Discussion? Review?

Friday- A Friday weekly meme?  Review?

AS you can see I'm not sure about some content towards the end of the week but I do want to post something.

    Fangirl is a book I have on my shelf for ages and still haven't got around to it. Glad to hear you loved it enough to re-read!

    Summer is an excellent time for concerts. Glad to hear you're enjoying them. :)

    Fangirl and Will Grayson are both faves of mine. Glad Fangirl is holding up for you. Wow! You and your dad had a great night out. I have actually never been to Ocean City, but all those places sound fabulous. My sister went to see the Jersey Boys in AC too.

Top Ten Tuesday- characters that remind me of myself

Welcome back to Top Ten Tuesday! This is a weekly meme where readers discuss ten or whatever number you would like to have based on a prompt. Our host is Jana at  thatartsyreadergirl . Our topic this week is Characters Like Myself. I am going to take a two words that each character has in in my opinion,  and discuss how that relates to me  as well. 1- Cather Avery from Fangirl Writer- At her core, Cath is a writer, and she loves her stories. I am a writer of both Fan Fiction and original stories like Cath so this was an automatic in for this. Both of us love our work and we tend to through ourselves whole hardheartedly into our work. Sisters- I might have mentioned this on the blog before but I have a younger sister and we’re only roughly 18 months a part. Cath and her twin sister Wren are polar  opposites and this is me and my sister. My younger sister is an extrovert and into science. I on the other hand,  am an introverted creative bookworm.  2- Miriam Kendrick from C

Top Ten Tuesday- Favorite Books of the Year Part 1 (12-21)

    Hi! Jana hosts Top Ten Tuesday @ thatartsyreadergirl . The purpose of this meme was to bring the book blogging community together and foster our love of lists. Each week, Jana posts a topic, and we readers respond based on that prompt. This week our topic is a freebie, so I decided to make my list of my top ten reads part one.   Middle Grade 12- Never After by Melissa de la Cruz I'm almost done with this book. It's a duology, and I loved the new twist on fairy tales.    YA 13- Don’t Read the Comments by Eric Smith I read this early in the year and it stuck with me. This YA Contemporary about gaming and the culture of the gaming industry was fantastic.  14- The Book Thief by Markus Zusak It took me years to read this book but I really enjoyed it. I love the unique narrator, the characters, and the story.  15- The Hate U Give by Angie Thomas This is another backlist release. I loved this book, and I knew when I read it that it had the potential to be on this list. I still thi

2019 Book Resolutions Tag!

Hey everyone! So Thursdays on the blog I am going to post a new tag. I think tags are so much fun, and I enjoy the time to reflect on what I’ve read in the past, or what I want to read. Images come from Goodreads. I grabbed the questions from  this blog 1. An author you’d like to read (that you’ve never read before). Leigh Bardugo! I have heard such great things about the Grisha verse, so I want to see if it lives up to all the hype. I have a feeling it will, and I am intrigued by the world. I got the first three books in the series as one large Ebook , so I ’m going to start that next month. I can’t wait to go on the journey and be immersed in a new series!  2. A book you’d like to read. Romanov by Nadine Brandes I love Anastasia and the Romanov family. This looks like such a fantastic retelling. I am drawn in just reading the blurb on Goodreads.  3. A classic you’d like to read. A Little Princess by Frances Hodgson Burnett. I’ve had the Barnes and Nobel edition of
