Yeah, I know I’m a day late again with the Weekly Wrap-Up. But this time it actually wasn’t my fault! I actually managed my time and stuff properly yesterday, and was raring to go with this! It was the art program I use to make graphics and images – it was misbehaving and wasn’t saving any changes to anything you made and needed some fixing. But it’s all good now, which is why I’m posting this!
Last week, in comparison to yesterday, I didn’t really manage my time and stuff as well. I only really read like a part of a book – and a novella at that! – and I only managed to get two posts out. Suffice to say, I’m annoyed with myself. And I want to do better this week.
Anyway, without further ado, let’s get on with the weekly wrap-up!
Thursday 7/3: The Most Interesting Looking New Books of July 2025
Last Thursday, I posted a list of the books that I’m looking forward to this month. Or, at least the ones that I think look the most interesting. It was the Most Interesting Looking New Books of July 2025. As always, it’s basically only fantasy and science fiction, as those are the two genres I primarily read. This time I had four books on my list.
Friday 7/4: 4th of July – Independence Day
Friday was the 4th of July 🎆🎇🎆🎇 otherwise known as Independence Day 🇺🇸🎊🇺🇸🎊 for America. It was a lot of fun, part of my family always has a 4th of July party, and there was great food and great company. We unfortunately don’t really do fireworks anymore, because of the area the people hosting the party live, as well as the time of day that the party is at, but it was still a good time.
Afterwards, my spouse and I just kind of went home and chilled, and that was really nice. We also ended up watching a fireworks show streamed through YouTube on our TV, with fireworks sounding off in the background from the streets around our house to complement it. Anyway, it was a great day.
Sunday 7/6: How to Defeat a Demon King in Ten Easy Steps Review
On Sunday, I did another book review, this time for a novella I recently read. It was Bow to Defeat a Demon King in Ten Easy Steps by Andrew Rowe. It was a fun little book with lots of The Legend of Zelda references, and I definitely recommend it to fans of the video game series. It was also an entertaining little fantasy book without the Zelda stuff and I gave it ★★★★✯.
Books I Read Last Week
💖🎁 Wrapping It All Up 💖🎁
So yeah, last week wasn’t the most productive with either blog activity or reading books, but it could’ve been worse. It definitely also could have been better, but, yeah. I’m hoping to improve during this coming week.
This week I’m absolutely going to post my monthly reading wrap-up for June 2025. I’m also probably going to do a couple of the other weekly posts I usually do, and hopefully I’ll get another book review out as well. I’m also hoping to start a new book, too, though I’m not sure which one yet.
Nothing else really happened last week aside from the holiday, but I’m still doing my usual stuff like watching what I’m eating and more home cooking. My spouse and I did finish with our rewatch of Avatar: The Last Airbender though, and are figuring out stuff to watch next. We’ll definitely continue making our way through Frazier, which is something we’ve been doing on and off for the last couple of months, and I’m looking forward to that.
Anyway, as always thank you for reading, and I hope you have a wonderful day/night!
See ya ~Mar
