So last week was, uh… Yeah, it wasn’t the best. I didn’t read or post as much as I’d have liked. So this wrap-up is gonna be one of the shorter ones.

Anyway the Weekly Wrap-Up is a bit late again, as you can see. I dunno what was up with me last week. At the very least, I had planned to get one more post out (the April Reading Wrap-Up), but that didn’t end up panning out. And I read a lot last week, but I didn’t read any novels. Ugh. I’m so annoyed with myself.

Anyway, I’ll shut up now. Without further ado, let’s get on with the weekly wrap-up!

Tuesday 4/29: Top Ten Tuesday

Last Tuesday, I participated in a Top Ten Tuesday for the first time in a few weeks. Top Ten Tuesday is a weekly post currently hosted by That Artsy Reader Girl. It celebrates lovely lists, wonderful books and the bookish community. The prompt for last week was Books With “[Insert Word Here]” in the Title.

Saturday 5/3: The Ascendance Series Books 1, 2 & 3 Review

On Saturday, I finally, finally, posted my review for the first three books in the Ascendance Series. This review was really hard for me get out for whatever reason, and is probably the reason why my activity on the blog took a dive last week. Because I had trouble getting into the writing of it.

As a whole, I thought that what I read of the series was pretty decent. I found it to be a decently written middle grade fantasy-adventure trilogy of books (and it was originally a trilogy, before the author went back and wrote a couple more books for it several years after it was first published). I have the three books altogether ★★★✯☆.

Books I Read Last Week

💖🎁 Wrapping It All Up 💖🎁

So yeah, my productivity concerning the blog as well as reading books was pretty shot last week. I’m really hoping to do better this week.

Regarding the coming week, for the blog I want to publish my April Reading Wrap-Up for 2025, and I definitely want to get out my list of most interesting new book releases for May 2025, the latter as soon as possible. I’m also hoping to do at least one of my other weekly posts, as well as a book review.

For books and reading, I have a book that I’m borrowing from my mother-in-law to read – Impossible Creatures – and I have to read that like right now. Cuz there’s kind of a waiting list in the family (my spouse wants to read it after me, and then my sister-in-law and my father-in-law), and I don’t want to hold it up. Then I’ll finally read The Ashfire King – I would’ve been reading it already if not for the family waiting list for the other book.

For the stuff outside the blog and reading, nothing else is really going on except for my diet. Which has been going on for almost a month now, which I’m happy about. Oh! My sibling did get a house a few weeks ago and is closing on it this week. So that’s cool.

Anyway, I’ve talked more than enough here. As always thank you for reading, and I hope you have a wonderful day/night!

See ya ~Mar
