Sunday Post #33, It Is Sad Without Rain

The Sunday Post is hosted by 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 received, and share news about what is coming up on the blog for the week ahead. To get in on the Sunday fun, see the rules here: Sunday Post Meme. 

Outside the Blog
It is already the second week we have sunshine. And again I am complaining. It is so hot and dry that I have headaches almost every day. You need to drink a lot, but during the winter I got used to drink only hot beverages and the change to summer was so rapid that I cannot make myself to switch to water. Besides for two hot weeks we have only one rain and it it really sad without it. I like the smell of dust, when the first drops hit the ground, and the smell of fresh, you can actually feel how the leaves and grass drink the water and breath the clean air back.  Additionally, it is no fun to read in the sun, I need some coziness and in the sun I feel like melted cheese.

Next on the Blog

  • I will review Sleeping Giants by Sylvain Neuvel
Read and Watched
     I have finished Waking Gods by Sylvain Neuvel and novella The Grownup Gillian Flynn, which I did not particularly enjoyed. It was classic Gillian Flynn's writing and plot development, but I was never a big fan, so I am not going to review it.
    This week I watched such a great match between FC Liverpool and Roma, in which Liverpool almost secure its place in the Finals and then blew it away! But the match is still something to remember.

Newcomers on my Shelf
I got 2 books from the library this week:
Mr. Mercedes by Stephen King and Good Night Stories for Rebel Girls: 100 Tales of Extraordinary Women by Elena Favilli and Francesca Cavallo, which I have already DNFed and by which I am extremely disappointed. I actually am going to write a review on a DNFed book.

  1. I like a nice transition ha ha between winter and summer, and it's no fun when it goes right to hot weather! Hope you get some relief, maybe some more rain? I think the Furiously Happy and Weird Things Customers Say in Bookstores both sound like a lot of fun :)
