Okay, I like summer and heat but this is just to much heat...lol. I am not a fan of excessive heat. I had to wake my butt up early just to mow before it got to hot blah.

Didn't really do a whole lot this week so nothing much to report. I did watch a few movies, Dante's Peak, always loved that one and Jurassic World, not as great as the OG Jurassic Park but still fun.

Books I added:

Nothing

Books I Read:

• Dismissed with Prejudice - The seventh book in the JP Beaumont series and though not a favorite of the series it was still a lot of fun and enjoyable.

Currently Reading:

• Blowin' Up a Murder - It's been a while since I read a book in this series. I love this series and it's fun being back with familiar characters.
• Changes - Enjoying my reread of Changes, I have forgotten a lot of things!

How was your week? Happy Reading!

So this week there were some highs and lows. So it started out awesome as I spent the day with my aunt and we went thrifting, but then the next day I woke up with the worst allergies every! I have felt awful all week but starting to feel a bit better. Another high note is I have a new used computer and so maybe now I will start posting more regularly as I was having to fight with my old one so much it wasn't worth the effort. I am so excited about this new though used pc that was gifted to me by a lovely couple. 

I didn't read much but I did watch a few interesting movies. Since it's summer I like to watch the campy creature/killer animal type movies. I watched Maggots and it's a slightly newer movie and basically it reminded me of why I would rather stick with my old school killer animal movies. It was over the top cheesy and they couldn't talk without being rude and crude. I also watched Rippy which was about a zombie Kangaroo, kind of slow but interesting...lol.

Books I have added

Nothing

Books I Read

• Tombstone Courage - The second book in the Joanna Brady series and I enjoyed it. This series seems a bit grittier than the Beaumont series.

Currently Reading

• Can't Judge a Book by the Murder - First in a series and it's okay. Reading it for a readalong and really wasn't in the mood for it so my thoughts might be jaded. :)
• Changes - Getting back to Dresden! I love this series.
• Emma - Still chipping away at it, it's just not high priority. 

How was your week?

So besides turning a year older, not a whole lot happened last week. I did receive some really fun gifts from friends, a box of mostly vintage books. (To many to post, but maybe if I think of it next week I will pick out a few favs and post them), a Murder She Wrote tote and some gift cards, etc. So it was a great b-day! 

Hope everyone had a great week and happy reading!

Books I have added

Lots of fun vintage books! :) 

Books I Read

• Fern - Book two in the Seven Brides series. It's one of my retro romances and it was a lot of fun! 

Currently Reading

• Tombstone Courage - Second book in the Joanna Brady series. I really liked book one so looking forward to getting into this one. I am putting it here because I will be starting it today. 
• Emma - Still chugging along on this one as it's a bit longer than her other books.

How did your week go? Hope you had a great week!

What you might have missed on my blog

Well it has been a while since I posted. I have just been kind of busy and then I would totally forget to make the post. Also been having a lot of problems with my computer and I kind of give up at times, as it is frustrating. Hope everyone had a great week. It's a bit hot but other than things are not to bad here. I mean it could be worse so why complain, right?

Happy reading!

Books I Read

• Last Kids On Earth #6.5 and #7 - I really like this series, it's full of fun and action.
• Rise of the Evening Star - Fablehaven #2 - I enjoyed this, though one of the main middle graders Seth still annoys me, but not as bad as in book one.
• South of Nowhere - Colter Shaw #5 and a very good series. 

Currently Reading

• Farewell, My Lovely - The second Phillip Marlowe book and so far it's okay.
• Emma by Jane Austen - This is for Jane Austen July and their group read. It's been years since I have read this one so thought I would go ahead and do so and it's decent. It's nothing new since I have read it and watched the 90s movie several times. :)

How did your week go? Hope you had a great week!
