Weekly Wrap Up is a weekly post in which I recap posts, showcase new books and highlight what’s to come! Also, I share a pic of the week and share discussion posts that caught my eye*. Stacking the Shelves is hosted by Tynga’s reviews & The Sunday Post is a weekly meme hosted by Kimba the Caffeinated Book Reviewer.
Hey! Happy Saturday!
I’m starting to feel like my updates are being redundant, because nothing NEW is really happening. Work is stressful, kids are good and Football makes my week! Wash. Rinse. Repeat. Pretty boring stuff, really. Having the Blues sucks.
Fantasy Update:
Last week, I was up against Morgan and her team, Iron Patriots. I lost! It was close there for a second but the two players I was relying on the most did nothing. 🙁
THIS week, I am up against Andi and her team, Boston incrEDELMAN. Our match up was originally pretty even but we both had players play on Thursday and she got 30 points. *side eyes* So I need a miracle.

Gosh, that Football Fantasy just sounds awesome! I’m sad you lost :/ But you have more opportunities to kick butt 😀 Dead Silence looks fantastic! I just opened it on GR to check it out. I hope you have a good week!

Good luck in fantasy this week! So happy to hear the audio of shadow bright and burning is good but of course it is bc its Fiona! 🙂
I wish I could take IG pictures that were a 1/4 a pretty as yours. I have no artistic eye whatsoever. I consider it a success if the picture isn’t blurry.
Good luck with fantasy football!

My week was good 🙂 I’m currently reading and loving a vampire contemporary(Dark Heart of the Sun by S.K. Ryder). I’m always a bit weary of those but this one is good. ~Aleen

Deadly Silence was good, but now I need to read the Sin Brothers which are on my kindle unread *hangs head* Hey, boring rinse, repeat is sometimes a good thing. I hope something good happens this week to shake things up!!

Don’t worry, I never have anything new to say either, so I just ramble about random things in my weekly update posts lol. Sorry your fantasy football league isn’t doing too well so far! I’m loving all the red in your photos this week though 😀 Have a great week!

Hey hey! I kicked butt last week in my FF league. But I did HORRIBLE this week. Anyways…I’m about 70% through the audio for A Shadow Bright and Burning. I like it. But I didn’t love it at first.

Aww sorry Tonya :/ Haha. Fantasy Football is really fun but can be super frustrating sometimes! I know what you mean about updates too, it’s the same for me. Work is meh, I read, and watch football & wrestling. Haha. Loved ASBaB, glad you’re enjoying it! I’ve been so bad at visiting blogs for the past couple weeks, trying to make an effort to catch up!

I get into those ruts sometimes too, where life just seems to be a case of wash, rinse and repeat. Oh well, as long as it’s not a bad routine, sometimes all you can do is ride the rut out!

Yikes! I missed so many good things on your blog this week! I need to get reading now. 🙂

Love the FF updates even though I know nothing about football.
I’ve been trying to get motivated about reading and blogging. Doing okay!
Thanks so much for stopping by! Jen @ YA Romantics

I definitely need to check out your other posts. Sorry to hear about your fantasy football thing, I hope it works out in your favor.
I finally finished Empire of Storms this past week, oh and A Shadow Bright and Burning was a great read as well.
Have a great week!
