The Sunday Post is a weekly meme hosted by Kimba @ Caffeinated Book Reviewer ~ It’s a chance to share news~ A post to recap the past week on my blog and share news about what’s coming up in the week ahead.
Last week on FYFA (and in my life):
Had a bit of a relaxing week this week, since I didn’t have any editing projects to work on and since I procrastinated and didn’t work on hospitality for my daughter’s gymnastics competition. Don’t worry, I’ll pay for it later!

oh!! you’ve got the Hidden Library! love that book, can’t wait to see your review
I adored the first book, so I decided I definitely needed to pick this one up!
can’t wait for you to read it!
I could have used a relaxing week 🙂 I feel like I’ve been so busy lately! Looking forward to your reviews this week!
Oh, don’t worry – I’ll be busy again VERY soon!
Did you absolutely love I’ll Give You The Sun? I read it earlier this year and thought it was amazing!
I did love it! I loved the imagery and beautiful language. I knew that everyone had been raving about that one and had to check it out for myself!
That’s great you had a pretty nice, slow week! I’m just ready for my classes to be over for the summer- a little less to focus on! lol
Ah, summer! Now there’s a pleasant thought!
OOOh nice! I need to start Heather Lyons series! I bought the first book for my kindle last week! Can’t wait to read it! Great books! Hope you enjoy them all!
Here’s my STS
Have a GREAT day!
Old Follower 🙂
I LOVED the first book and people are saying great things about this second book too, so I had to get it!
Great haul this week! I really hope you love Discovery, it is one of my most favorite historical paranormal trilogies, it was fabulous! Can’t wait to see what you think about it.
Discovery is one of those books that everyone talks about and I just knew that I needed to read. I’m excited that I own it now!
I hope you have a great week, Nicole. A Discovery of Witches is a great book!

Second Run Reviews
I’ve heard amazing things about it!
I need to read book 3 in the series yet. Didn’t get around to it last year!
So many nice books this week. I want to read The Hidden Library. Hope you enjoy it!
I’m excited about that one because I adored the first book!
I got the entire Deborah Harkness series but haven’t read it yet.
It’s one of those series that EVERYONE talks about. Glad I’m jumping on board!
It happened again! I just lost 20 mins clicking links on this post, lol. Thanks so much for the shout out! I hope you don’t pay too dearly for procrastinating. Everyone deserves a break every now and then.
Yep – I’m really good at procrastinating, so I’m used to it. LOL!
Okay, what is the OTSP secret sister??
I’ve heard great things about the Hidden Library! 🙂 Have a good week lady
I just realized that I hadn’t responded to this, Tonya! OTSP Secret Sister is kind of like secret santa, but it runs all year long (in six month increments). For six months, you send a gift (once a month) to your secret sister. And then you have someone (not the same person) sending you gifts as well. It’s run by three book bloggers, I think. I found it on The Book Addict’s Guide. It’s lots of fun! Check it out on Twitter at #OTSPSecretSister.
haha that’s okay! I have seen so many talking about it but I never saw WHERE it started! I’ll check it out 🙂
So many great books, I love that you always write a post like this. I enjoy looking at them every week.
I like quiet weeks! Lets hope you get a few of them. Oooh… there’s a review I need to check out, shows I’ve been a bit of a slacker lately! I need to read Heather Lyons new one too! Sigh…

Sometimes you need a nice relaxing week though! Hopefully you don’t pay for it too much 😉
I love Discovery of Witches, your secret sister rocks! Hope your week is amazing!
