    1. It came back Friday a week after it when out. We came home yesterday. I am glad to be back but all those things you put on hold, now need to be done. Not to mention all the food that we had to throw out.

  7. I hope you are enjoying Three Dark Crowns. It is much slower paced, but the sequel really pulls it together ;)

    1. Well, since it is a series, I hope it gives me all the background for the next in line. Thanks for the warning.

  8. I am so sorry about your problems with power. That can be frustrating. At least you are fully prepared with books!

    ReplyDelete
  9. Having no power is the worst, but at least you got some good old fashioned reading done. I hope you get your power back soon and yay for finally being home! I'll be curious to hear your thoughts on The Replacement. I read it a long time ago and thought it was okay. Have a great week! :)

  10. It looks like you have had a great week of reading, and sorry to hear the power has been out, hopefully it hasn't gotten too cold. But I do love old fashion printed books.

  23. Ooooh! Rise of the Dragons has such a nice cover! And I'm super interested to see what you thought of The Replacement!

  24. There's a few books on your list that have been on my TBR for a long while, I just need to read them, but never seem to be in the mood. I'm kind of over any Cassandra Clare books at this point. The first three mortal instrument books were my absolute favorite forever, but now she has so many and they all seem to be the same to me.
    Anyway!
    Looks like you got a bit done this week.
    Here's our weekly wrap up: http://jennreneeread.blogspot.com/2018/03/weekly-wrap-up-march-4th-march-10th.html
