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.
Wow!!! So, I have a pretty intense goal for this year. 200 books! I’m not really specifying genres or types but I do love debut authors! I met so many fabulous authors last year and I’m hoping to do the same this year.
I do have a TON of zombie books that are just sitting, waiting patiently for me to love them! I’m also getting Rot & Ruin, Dust & Decay AND Flesh and Bone by Jonathon Maberry for my vacation in later Feb! YAY!
But anyway! So… so far this year I’ve done pretty good on my goal of 200 books. I’m already 20 books in! How I’ve accomplished this when we also got a new stray is beyond me! It’s been such a stressful two weeks but our little (or rather quite large) mutt seems to be fitting in quite well other than wanting me to love on him instead of reading! I’m trying to teach him when “Mommy Reading Time” is but I’m pretty sure he thinks that Bruno’s time must come first!
I also got a really neat journal! The Book Lover’s Journal! I don’t always do book reviews the second after I read a book so this little baby looks like it’s going to come in handy! This is going to be great when I’m freaking out while on “vacation” and I can’t blog! LOL…

Congrats on getting so much read, where did you get your journal from? I love the look of it? *o* I’m such a notebook/journal hoarder I think it needs to be added to my pile.
I am too! I have so many journals, it is probably pathetic but it makes me happy! I got this one from Barnes and Noble. It was in the middle of the normal journals and I just happened to look up! It’s pretty small, easily can fit into a purse. Fabulous for travel 😀
Great recap and congrats on your 20 books. That’s quite a lot. I got Spellbinding this week too! Happy reading!
Check out my SP & STS.

I love the cover to Spellbinding. Couldn’t pass that one!
Sweet haul. I am really hoping to go and see Warm Bodies soon. 🙂
Jenea @ Books Live Forever’s Sunday Post
Let me know what you think! We just saw it, and LOVED it!
Love that journal. I keep all my notes electronically now, but I wish I would have kept a journal like this while growing up. 😦
I tried the electronic thing but I just don’t do it! I love pencil to paper. 😀
