Weekly Wrap-Up (2013-08-26)

Once again I had a busy week so only I read 6 books this week. And only one of the three books I planned to read were in my finished list. And I did no mini-reviews last week, but I did start working on the review for Unholy Ghosts; and spent a bunch of time talking about with some friends, so I did accomplish something. 

Read Last Week: 

• Kitty in the Underworld by Carrie Vaughn  
• What Happens in Scotland by Jennifer McQuiston
• His Risk to Take by Tessa Bailey
• Officer Off Limits by Tessa Bailey
• Son of the Morning by Linda Howard
• Fantasy Lover by Sherrilyn Kenyon

So with six books for the week I didn't do too bad. I did have a chunk of time wrapped up on getting a laptop fixed (died while trying to play Alan Wake from the summer Steam sale) and just general laziness. I don't know what is up with me this summer, but everything feels like it is just so much work. I did watch more Netflix and Amazon this week compared to other week, so maybe next week I will actually read more than I buy. Ha, ha!

So onto the TBR pile, well I only picked up 12 books. And I read six, so I only increased the list by 6. I really need to dump my entire list off of eReaderIQ. I swear the notifications I get from them are behind at least 70% of my purchases. And another 20% are Dear Author and Smart Bitches, Trashy Books recommendations. 

So, the purchased book list from last week (read books in bold):

• Nobody's Baby But Mine (Chicago Stars / Bonner Brothers) by  Susan Elizabeth Phillips
• Tangled Up In You by  Rachel Gibson
• Truly Madly Yours by  Rachel Gibson
• Match Me If You Can (Chicago Stars / Bonner Brothers) by  Susan Elizabeth Phillips
• Fool for Love (Duchess Quartet) by  Eloisa James
• Your Wicked Ways (Duchess Quartet) by  Eloisa James
• Omens: A Cainsville Novel by  Kelley Armstrong
• Blackwood (Strange Chemistry) by  Gwenda Bond
• Fantasy Lover (Dark-Hunter Novels) by  Sherrilyn Kenyon
• Chocolate Wishes by  Trisha Ashley
• Chocolate Shoes and Wedding Blues by  Trisha Ashley
• Freefall by  Tess Oliver

So, out of the twelve I bought, I read one. And it is not a new read for me. The whole series was on sale recently, and even though I had given up on reading them after the Bad Moon Rising debacle (I will do a review sometime and rant on that topic) it was the only new thing that really called to me. 

So for the coming week, I am going to read Dust (Hugh Howey) during the holiday weekend, probably my Sunday afternoon read. I do still want to read Sugar Daddy, but I think with Omens (Kelley Armstrong), For the Love of Magic (Janet Chapman) and Deception Cove (Jayne Castle) out this week I probably have a good number of things that I have been looking forward to reading. And I have a beta reader for a YA book this week. So that is probably tonight and tomorrow gone. :-)   

I doubt I will get to anything from the TBR. Oh well, there is always next week. ;-)
