The Sunday Post is a weekly meme hosted by Kimba the Caffeinated Book Reviewer. It's a chance to share news. A post to recap the past week on your blog, showcase books and things we have received and share news about what is coming up on our blog for the week ahead.
oOoOoOo
I think this is my first official "Sunday Post." Yay!
Weekly Recap:
Slump, slump, slump. I'm in a reading one. I just can't get motivated to read, which is unfortunate because my TBR pile is toppling over! I only read one book last week, and it was meh.
So, instead of reading, last week I did some blog "housekeeping." I went back through my 500+ posts and retagged and reformatted most of them. Some of the posts looked terrible! I don't know what I was thinking. ;-)
I also worked a little on my tumblr blog, which is really just a companion to this one. It's a fun place to post photos, quotes and such. Do you have a tumblr blog? If so, let me know!

ReplyDeleteI did some blog housekeeping not too long ago, and I was really surprised at how bad some of my posts looked. Unfortunately I'm still fighting with format issues on mine that pop up randomly. :( I hope you get out of your reading slump, and enjoy your books that you got.
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by!!

eeks, just thinking about another blog makes me sweat... my blog takes up all my time :) Those reading slumps happen, hope you find a really good book to get you motivated! Book Savvy Babe
ReplyDeleteI try not to look at my old posts, because they are just awful! I have a tumbler but never use it. However, it might be a good place for quotes..
ReplyDeleteHi Dianna! Nice to meet you! Thanks bunches for stopping by my blog! I love your header! I know reading slumps are hard. I am burned out, too because I feel like I never get to read anything I want to read anymore. I hope you break out it soon! Here's to a better week!
ReplyDeleteI hope you get over your slump soon :/ Those just sucks. Try everything and anything
ReplyDeleteI hate those slumps! I've been in a cooking slump lately. It is a good thing the kids like nuggets and m-n-ch so much :)

I hear ya about reading slumps. I am so proud I finished an entire book in 2 days! Unwholly Neal Shusterman, it was good. A very creepy dystopian.
ReplyDeleteI use slumps to spruce up the blog too. I also visit other blogs and comment away.
I should work on my Tumblr. I love your blog design. She makes really eclectic and whimsical designs.
Have a gr8 week and enjoy your new book :)

You Don't Want to Know sounds good. I can't wait to see what you think of it.
ReplyDeleteEnjoy your books and Happy Reading!
I hope your reading slump ends soon! When I get that way, I'll read something out of my usual genres.
ReplyDeleteI tend to go back and relabel and clean up old posts too :)
Enjoy those books!
I have the Lisa Jackson book too :) It looks so good!
ReplyDeleteI did the slump thing 2 weeks ago but then read a book over the weekend that I think broke it!
