From • @stephaniealexander888 It's Valerie's and Lizzie's birthday tomorrow 🐥🐥🐥, they took the day off yayy! We don't usually celebrate birthdays but I might help around the house to show my appreciation! ♥️♥️♥️ Thanks Lizzie for making me lunch, and taking me out to eat all the time. I wouldn't have made any gains without her 😂. Speaking of food, eating some shrimp tacos, raspberries, blueberries, seaweed and oranges for lunch today! Hope you guys had something delicious as well 😋😛 Happy Thursday everyone!😺 #thursday #food #snack #beautiful #foodie #yummy #delicious #happy #lunch #instagood #photooftheday #love #tacos #smile #cute #girl #pretty #home #gorgeous #eat #foodlover #friends #healthy #appreciation #hungry #fashion #style #model #fit #fitness https://www.instagram.com/p/CY_HWydseTYlW2aStNDG3Tb1RJJZdc2mbO6xbc0/?utm_medium=tumblr

Happy Sunday bookworms!

Did everyone have a good weekend?  Did you read any good books?!

I had a fairly busy week full of hosting my book club (we read Homegoing & it was an excellent discussion), attending a concert (Rob Zombie! It was my first heavy metal concert & quite an experience), and even attended an 80s themed party (it was totally tubular).  Despite my busy week in real life, I still managed to get some posts up on the blog & read 3 (almost 4) books this week!  Yay me 🙂

Let’s see what I got accomplished…

*Weekly Wrap-Up is a weekly post where I feature what posts were published on the blog for the past week, any bookish/blog happenings, what I recently finished reading, what I am currently reading, what I will be reading next, noteworthy posts around the bookish blogosphere, and any interesting bookish articles I came across.

Book Review: The Wolf Road by Beth Lewis

*Book titles link to Goodreads

Recently finished reading:

» Daughter of the Pirate King by Tricia Levenseller

*3.5 Stars

Feelings in a few thoughts: bad-ass female lead; example of how to do the hate – love trope well; witty banter; good concept with fantasy elements; wanted more action out of a PIRATE book; solid read but could have been more

» The Sisters Brothers by Patrick deWitt

*3.5 Stars

Feelings in a few thoughts:  outside my reading comfort zone; very much a western; play format? didn’t really understand the intermissions; dry humor – which I appreciated; journey where characters must face adversity along the way; enjoyed how everything panned out in the end – but wasn’t the dramatic ending I was anticipating; slower paced; struggled with my rating – possibly a 4 star book; won’t be for everyone

» Caraval by Stephanie Garber

Feelings in a few thoughts: went in with low expectations, but pleasantly surprised; gave me Wizard of Oz vibes; enjoyed the overall plot – darker than anticipating w/ good mystery elements; writing felt forced at times, like the author was trying a little too hard; too much sensory description – particularly smells; wanted a little more visual world building; wonder if I enjoyed this more because I haven’t read The Night Circus yet?
