Stacking the Shelves #3, Sunday Salon #3, Sunday Post #3


It's the weekend, so it must be time to enjoy a few of my favorite book memes.








Stacking the Shelves is hosted every Saturday by Marlene @ Reading Reality and promotes sharing books you actually received during the week - library, purchase, ARC, gift, etc. as well as what you think you might read in the upcoming week. The Sunday Post is hosted by Kimberly at Caffeinated Book Reviewer and is a place to share posts, reviews, personal updates, etc. The Sunday Salon hosted by Deb @ ReaderBuzz is a similar format. Join me in visiting the wide array of book blogs in the world.

BOOKS I FINISHED LAST WEEK AND WHAT I'M READING NOW



FINISHED


ARC due out June 21. Review pending soon (this week?)










CURRENTLY READING


The Cartographers received from the library this week (it's a special 2 week loan, so I'm flying through it)


Still listening to A Great Reckoning by Louise Penny - only listening on my commute so it takes a while to get through a long-ish book.


PUBLISHED ON THE BLOG LAST WEEK

My review of Ariadne by Jennifer Saint

My review of The Berlin Girl by Mandy Robotham

My pending reviews are stacking up; I'd better get writing!

Sent out my monthly subscription newsletter with tips and bookish highlights


PERSONAL UPDATE

Wedding celebration plans kicked into high gear this week. My oldest son got married in the first restrictions of covid with only parents and siblings attending a short ceremony outside in a park. Not what they'd planned or wanted at all. Forward 2 years and we're now having the party part of the wedding! Luckily all their deposits for venue and photographer, etc. were held over so all the main stuff is figured out, but the devil is in the details. So we had a planning get together at the venue to settle the details - it's going to be SO beautiful! (now the weather just has to cooperate since it's ALL outside....in Seattle....in early July....)

The happy couple engagement photo 3 years ago (shhheeeeesh!)

The beautiful city we call home - Seattle.


Hope you all have a most fabulous week of reading and relaxing and enjoying the beginning of summer!




Welcome to Bookshelf Journeys.

It's my goal to provide real reviews of the books I read without totally rehashing every plot. I'll never spoil a story by giving away a plot twist! Hopefully you'll find one or two of interest and will discover a new book or author to add to YOUR TBR list.  Take a moment to explore, read a couple reviews, and let me know what you think.

                            TIPS

For your convenience, I use #hashtags in the reviews and when you click on one, you'll find more books with that theme. Hopefully you'll find it a helpful way to navigate the site and find books you'll enjoy. I've also recently added tags that will show up at the end of each review that serve the same purpose.

The review ratings are based on a 5 star  (1/2 stars sometimes) system with a 3 being an average read for me. I hope you find that helpful. Knowing, of course, that all opinions are just that - my opinion!  Let me know if you agree or disagree - I'd love to hear from you.

If you like what you see and want to keep up with me, subscribe below.  Happy Reading!
