Sunday Post

Let's chat about what's going on this week... on my blog.. on other blogs... on the internet... and just everywhere!    I link up my post to Sunday Post and Stacking the Shelves.

You may have noticed I was a little MIA with commenting the last two weeks. Lots of traveling and family visiting but I am back into full blogging swing.  I am still patiently waiting for my new blog look... I don't know how much longer I can wait! LOL!  I have been in contact with New Chapter Designs who is creating it and she promises soon!
I did get in my first garden this week and am so excited to see it grow.  My father always has had one and I loved going there and seeing vegetables grow.  


On the Blog:
-There was a new  Project Disney - Pocahontas  I enjoyed learning all kinds of new things about her.
-A new Video Game review- I really loved  Dust An Elysian Tail ... so fun!
-Movie review time! Maleficent .  I have been dying to see this one.
-I had a lot of fun co-hosting the Clean Sweep ARC Challenge (Wrap Up Post) .  I am not sure that many people knew I was the co-host, I think they just recognized Kimba.  But it was still fun and she made me feel so welcome.
-Also... I talk about Mental Illness and Books that talk about it.  I think it's important that we get more people reading about it and becoming more familiar with it.  


Around the blogospere:
-The Book Blogger World Tour looks fun.  You take the URL of a blog you love and take a picture somewhere in your town with it.  Join up!
- Austen VS Bronte .. Bookish Whimsy debates the two. 
-What is a spoiler?  By Readers in Wonderland... I totally agree with this post!
- Is it fair that some bloggers get more books, more hits on their blog, more chances to go to bookish events?  Fiktshun discusses this.
- I am going to link to Fiktshun again this week.. here she is talking about that awful article that was published on Slate this week (I am not going to link to it but it's about the fact that adults should be ashamed of reading YA) Read What You Want!

Internet:
Well as some of you know I love the Rock, so I will totally be seeing this film!




Books, Books, Books,
I just started getting some more library books in since I had a vacation hold on my account for 2 weeks.  I got a new pop-up Marvel book that I will be featuring coming up.  I also just finished listening to the Golem and the Jinni the review will be up next week.
