Stacking the Shelves #173 Sunday Post #170, Sunday Salon #164

Hey my bookish friends! How was your week? I started Monday at the ER with my daughter, she has a kidney stone that she has been trying to pass all week. My book club met Thursday night, we had a new member, and despite not loving the book we were discussing, we had a great time. I was finally well enough to make it back to the gym Friday morning, and finally feel like I am back in the land of the living. I got hard news Friday afternoon and am still trying to process it. We are planning to see a few houses this weekend (still no luck on selling ours), go to Church, and hopefully go back to the beach lake we found last weekend.

Wed Wabbit

Title: Wed Wabbit

Author: Lissa Evans

Publisher: Scholastic

Genre: Fantasy, Middle Grade, Adventure

Source: Library

My Review:

Wed Wabbit by Lissa Evans is our book club pick for this month. Judging the book by the cover, I would have thought I wouldn't like it. I'm not much of a fantasy or middle-grade reader. However, I was told it was similar to The Phantom Tollbooth by Norton Juster, which I enjoyed.

Stacking the Shelves #172 Sunday Post #169, Sunday Salon #163

Hey my bookish friends! How was your week? I am STILL sick, my guess is we had C*vid, which is my first time. I am slowly improving, but still coughing and congested. We have another open house on Sunday, hopefully something will come from it. Other than that, not much on the radar this weekend.
