The Sunday Post #72 (5.17.15)

The Sunday Post is a weekly meme hosted @ 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 on our blog for the week ahead. I’m also going to link this up with Sheila’s
It’s Monday post over at Book Journey. 
Only one week of work left until BEA!!! I am so excited, but at the same time, a but overwhelmed at all that I still need to do. I still need to finalize my schedule and get some odds and ends for my trip. But I am really looking forward to it. I only have four days of work, though I foresee they will be long, busy days.

Today, I’m heading to Collegeville, PA to an author event with one of my sisters. It’s being billed as a Women’s Fiction Book Club Event and six authors will be there – some of which I have read and some I have not. I’m looking forward to it and will be sure to write a post about it soon!

 

Have a great week everyone!!!

    I'm looking forward to your Butternut Lake review. That's a series I've been curious about. How exciting about BEA! I'm looking forward to seeing everyone's hauls. Have a great week and enjoy the author event.

    Some of the titles, such as Daydreams in Dixie, just sound fun.

    With your event today and then BEA, you are busy! I'm looking forward to reading about them.I hope you have fun.

    I am curious about the Butternut Lake book…I keep seeing it and wanting it…and then hesitating. Because of all the other books waiting for me to read!

    I loved The Sound of Glass…and enjoyed A Small Indiscretion. Have a great week!

    Here are MY WEEKLY UPDATES

    I just got that Fredrik Backman book too. I loved A Man Called Ove when I read it for book group last month.

    Have fun at BEA! I may go one of these days. It sounds like an awesome event.

    BEA will now doubt be great and the author event sounds wonderful as well. I enjoyed The Summer Girls, now have to make a space to read Book 2 of the trilogy. Have a great week.
