The Sunday Post #15

    


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.
A few bullet points this Veteran's Day weekend:

* Now that the election is *finally* over we can start thinking about Christmas, right?  Starting this week it's going to be all Christmas books, all the time for me. And my tree will be going up this week as well. It's my favorite time of year and I intend to enjoy it for as long as I can. Every year it's over way too fast.

* Yesterday I had the honor of being a guest blogger at one of my favorite book blogs, writing about my love of Nancy Drew and how she is the #1 reason for my book obsession, particularly my love of mysteries. Check it out here.

* Yesterday Tara was thrilled to be Ellery Adam's Facebook profile picture after she stayed up way too late reading her wonderful new book Written in Stone.

Went over and check out your guest post. Loved it..I love the cat picture with Ellery's new book. So Cute! 'Death on Dartmoor' looks like a great read. I've never heard of the series or author so I am definitely going to have to check it out. Glad to see that you picked up a lot of cozy mysteries this week. They all look fabulous. Happy reading!

Nice haul and the weeks leading up to Christmas will be heavy with holiday themed books for me too, i am a sucker for them. Our tree goes up on Black Friday. Thanks for sharing your news on The Sunday Post

As usual, a nice haul. I admit, I'm not big on holiday stories but I enjoy one or two. Have fun!
