The Sunday Post #51

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
Can you believe we're going into the second week of April already? We had some pretty good spring like weather here this week (I got to wear my flats again!) but then we got some of those April showers (lets hope they do bring May flowers). It was pretty good week here, it was Mr. Turning the Pages birthday, my sisters birthday and Mr. Turning the Pages' parents anniversary so lots of celebrating going on.
 
Today I'm pretty stoked because Game of Thrones and River Monsters both premier tonight and I've got the feeling that even though I've read the entire Song of Ice & Fire (GoT) series that I'm going to be running around the house later screaming about feels.
Because I'm mature like that.
 
I hope you all have a FANTASTIC week!

  1. Happy birthday and anniversary! I'm going to be running around the house screaming about how I can't watch the new season because I'm still on season two. *Cries* I'm happy to see Spring as well, now if the pollen count will lower some so I can enjoy it. I hope you have a lovely week!

  5. Hope you enjoy Game of Thrones. :) I think this season is going to be pretty wild... Your Hawkeye book looks good, I've heard good things about that series but haven't read it myself.

    1. We just finished watching Season 3 on DVD this past week and we don't get HBO so we'll be watching social media to see the non-reader reaction to the new season. Both the hubby and I have read through book 3.

      The Shadow Queen looks interesting. I'll have to check it out. Have a good week!

    2. This season is going to be awesome, and Hawkeye was an okay read, not what I expected but okay.

  8. Am I the only one who isn't obsessed with Game of Thrones yet? It looks really good but I am always wary of getting into a huge fandom because I tend to be overly obsessed and so emotionally invested, does it even make sense? lol.

    1. I'm usually that way too Farzy, but this one is well worth it. I say give the show a go and then read the books. They're different but equally good.

  14. Let me try this again. My last commented was all messed up, lol.

    I loved Reaper's Property. But, holy kindle freebies! I clicked on some that looked really good and thankfully some of them are still free. (Cause ya know, my TBR list needs to be longer than it already is, lol) Where do you find them all?

    I hope you enjoy your books and have a great week (and Game of Thrones, of course!)

  15. I really should start to keep an eye on the Kindle freebies now that I finally got myself a kindle :)

    Have a good week!

  16. Happy birthday to Mr. Turning the Pages! We've been having lovely weather here all week, too. (Well, Friday was overcast and I think we got a little rain Thursday night, but nothing significant.) It's such a relief to no longer be wondering about the next snow. I even put away my turtlenecks and got out the short-sleeve shirts! (The long-sleeve shirts aren't going away yet, though. I know April; she's fickle.)

    Enjoy all your lovely new books! I'm debating asking for that Child of a Hidden Sea ARC myself - it looks good.

    1. Thanks Lark and you're right April is fickle, and she has a complete and utter lack of disregard for the rest of us. If you do request Child of a Hidden Sea I'll be looking out for what you think of it.

  17. I LOVE Taniguchi ! That is such a great pick ! Though I guess my favorite will always be The walking man, so little action, such amazement ! I hope you'll love it as much as I do, have a great week !
