Stacking the Shelves #164, Sunday Post #161, Sunday Salon #155

Hey my bookish friends! How was your week? My last two weeks were busy and long. I went to TN on Saturday, drove my sister to the hospital on Monday for her
surgeries, and was there ALL day. I read a little bit, but mostly worked on a crochet blanket. Tuesday we did a little shopping, and Wednesday I came home, went house hunting, Thursday was work, Friday was work and appointments and I am completely wiped out, but I have NO plans, other than church for the weekend, so I am going to take things as they come, and mostly relax! Happy Easter, friends. 

Stacking The Shelves is all about sharing the books you are adding to your shelves, may it be physical or virtual. This means you can include books you buy in physical store or online, books you borrow from friends or the library, review books, gifts and of course ebooks! And audiobooks. The Stacking the Shelves meme is hosted at Reading Reality.

Other updates:

I finished several books over the past two weeks and I have at least three reviews to still write. I feel like I am behind on everything again, but hope to do some catching up this weekend. I finished the post for my bookish wall hanging quilt, the pictures are here.
