Between Naps: January 28 Edition

Between naps is a little recap of what we were up to last week and what's coming up soon(ish).

Last Week on the Blog:

Nothing But Reviews:
♥  All the Best People by Sonja Yoerg
♥  Emphatic by Kaylee Ryan 
♥  The Doll House by Phoebe Morgan 
♥  Halloween Carnival Vol. 1 
♥  Smoke Gets in Your Eyes by Caitlin Doughty 

It was a bit of a boring week on the blog as I tried to catch up on review posting and was too drained to compose anything else. I still have quite the backlog too but that's what happens when you're lazy!

What We've Been Up To 

Nothing exciting. Sleeping, exercising (doing 80dayobsession and it's kicking my bum), cooking, working and reading a page or two when I can steal a minute. The internets have been very quiet and relatively peaceful this week, or have I missed all the gossip? 

Link Ups

I'm keeping it simple from here on out and am only linking this post up to Caffeinated Reviewer's Sunday Post. 

Books Bought

I broke my one week no-buy streak and bought some books even though I don't need them. I'm sure you can all understand.

        

I blame my RL reading friend for #1. Monday night she says to me, "it's free and it's really cute!" Well, that started me on a,  "oh what the hell" mini-spree. #2 was a freebie. The Jeff Strand book is a compilation of a series I've been meaning to finish for years. I've looked everywhere for the paperbacks and have had zero luck. So, Kindle app reading it is.

I also found myself with $10 more a week in my paycheck and succumbed to subbing to The Nocturnal Reader's Box. I don't do boxes but this one is calling to me and my friends keep talking about it and I totally feel like I'm missing out. I'm hoping it will fill the void that the Dorchester Horror Bookclub left behind when they closed up shop many moons ago.

Now Reading

I'm getting back to my horror roots and reading these two this week. We have discussion posts set up at Horror Aficionados over at Goodreads, if anyone is interested. The proceeds for Splatterpunk all go to fighting cancer which is sadly timely as horror author Jack Ketchum passed away this week after a battle with cancer.

    

What's Distracting Me?

My new exercise program has me falling asleep at 9 pm so I haven't had the energy for any distractions. I read a page and I'm out cold. I haven't even had a chance to watch the new  X-Files & Riverdale episodes this week!

What's Next?

I will pick a book for Barb's challenge today!

Other than that, I haven't a clue what I'm doing next week. I'm winging it this year.

What have you all been up to and do you subscribe to any bookish boxes?!
