Ugh, last week was kinda rough. Not to mention what I said last week – ‘It’s not like I’m posting this [Weekly Wrap-Up] on Wednesday.’ Famous last words, lol.
My time management was just out the window last week, which is why the blog activity is kind of sparse. I was also struggling a lot getting into the headspace to start a new book, especially because it’s been a while since I’ve read a novel (I managed to get through a novella, though). So yeah, I’m gonna preemptively mention that my reading in June was not the best.
Anyway, without further ado, let’s get on with the weekly wrap-up!
Wednesday 6/25: Can’t-Wait Wednesday
Last Wednesday, I did another Can’t-Wait Wednesday for the first time again. Two weeks in a row!
Can’t-Wait Wednesday is a weekly meme currently hosted by Tressa @ Wishful Endings. It focuses on books you’re looking forward to reading, usually new releases.
Sunday 6/29: The Replacement Review
On Sunday, I decided to do another Retrospective Book Review for the first time in about six months – the last time was Winterspell. It was once again a book I really enjoyed, but one that I – of course – read before I started this blog, otherwise there’d have been a review of it already, lol.
The book was The Replacement by Brenna Yovanoff, a dark fantasy YA novel with horror elements. I really enjoyed it when I first read it, and going back through it years later, I still liked it just as much. I originally gave it ★★★★✯, and I’m still keeping to that rating today.
Books I Read Last Week
💖🎁 Wrapping It All Up 💖🎁
So yeah, last week kind of sucked regarding blog posting. As did my reading. I’m really hoping that this week will be better, even though I’ve already gotten a late start. We’ll see – fingers crossed!
For the posts I want to do this week… Well, it’s a tad late, but I’m definitely gonna do my Most Interesting Looking New Books of July 2025. Of course I also want to do another couple posts aside from this one, and I want one of them to be a book review. The other… I dunno. We’ll see what I end up posting this week together, after it’s over.
As for books and reading… I dunno. Well, technically I have an idea, ’cause I know what’s on my To Be Read stuff, but I’m not quite sure I know what I’m going to read next out of the TBR. Or I might spontaneously decide to read a new book that came out in June. I’m honestly not sure what I’m gonna pick right now.
In regards to stuff I did outside of blogging and books last week, last week was my big house cleaning week of the month. It was a week later than usual, because time didn’t really work out for it the week before, as well as on a different day of the week than it usually is, which might have messed up my time management for other things. But it needed to be done, so I’m not as irritated about it as I could’ve been, even though I’m a little annoyed.
Anyway, as always thank you for reading, and I hope you have a wonderful day/night!
See ya ~Mar
