The Sunday Post is hosted by the wonderful Kimba, the Caffeinated Book Reviewer. It’s a chance to share news, recap the past week, take a look ahead, and showcase our new treasures – I mean books!
My Week
Monday I went to book group at the my county library, where a friend was talking about her book. (I’ll be reviewing for you all soon!) I’m considering joining the book club, but won’t have time to read the next book, as the next meeting is in 3 weeks and I am swamped.
Life, as it sometimes does, has gone from slow to hectic. Indexing work is picking up; my choruses are getting started next Sunday; and an large and unexpected (but interesting!) personal project has come my way as well. I may have to cut back a bit on blogging for a while – especially non-review posts like Top Ten Tuesday. We’ll see how it goes.

The Take Control of Your TBR Pile Challenge starts today! And COYER Winter 2014-15 is drawing to a close this week. I hope I can find time to get my COYER reviews posted, at least on Goodreads.

Great book additions, Lark. Sounds like it was a very busy week for you, but with enjoyable tasks. Happy March!

Indeed! Sorry for not replying at the time. Apparently I missed a bunch of comments around this time, and I’ve just discovered them. *blushes in embarrassment*

You sound swamped, Lark. I hope it slows down a little for you. You’ve got great-sounding posts for next week. Dreamwalker looks really interesting. Enjoy your choruses!

Too busy, apparently, or I would have discovered these unanswered comments before now. (Comments Not Replied To plugin broke and I’ve only just got it working again – I finally had to uninstall and reinstall.)

A very belated thank you for stopping by, Jess. I’ve only just discovered that I missed replying to a bunch of comments back in March… I”m so sorry.
Katherine @ I Wish I Lived in a Library
I love Rhys Bowen’s Royal Spyness series but never read anything else from her. I’m looking forward to seeing what you think of her other books and Tasha Alexander’s covers having been catching my eye for quite awhile. Good luck with your projects! Have a great week!

Well, I fell in love with Tasha Alexander’s series! Sorry to be so very behind in answering this – apparently I missed several days worth of comments back in March. *blushes with shame*

Dream Walker looks really good. Going to have to check that out. I enjoyed your review of Ladle To The Grave. I really liked it and plan to go back and start the series from the beginning now.

I have no idea if it will be good or not, but I really like Rhys Bowen’s mysteries, so I thought I’d give it a try!

Book clubs can be fun, but sometimes getting scheduling stuff together can be really difficult! I’ve found that it’s easier to participate (and *stay* participating) in online book clubs, like the ones on GR and reddit. I’m intrigued by the title of your post on “good” endings! If you mean what I think you mean, then I agree. Guess I’ll have to check back and see. 😉

I have wanted to join a book club locally, but yeah, scheduling is often tough.
Greg
I’ll be curious to see your thoughts on Tasha Alexander- I’ve enjoyed most of what I’ve read although some more than other. I don’t see a lot of reviews of her work, so I’ll be interested in your thoughts!

It’s just a family thing, something that needs my attention for a bit! I enjoy Susan Mallery’s books – they’re great for when I just need a break!
