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 Hey! Let’s get right to it, shall we?
10 Things that Summarize my Week
- This is labelled the 100th edition of The Weekly Wrap Up. Technically, it would be a lot more if I stuck to it to begin with. Either way. *throws confetti*
- I was out due to a cluster headache that has lasted about 7 days now. FUN.TIMES.
- Got all the details for the kiddo’s Disney Trip. *weeps with envy*
- It went from almost 70 degrees to snowing the next day.
- I finished reading ZERO books
- Talked to a friend I was super close with when I lived in Texas. I miss her!
- I got 5 boxes of girl scout cookies. I ate one ALL MY MYSELF.
- I also gained 5 pounds
- The kiddo’s motto, “Grades before Girls” was said at least 3 times this week

Map of Fates! Love that cover. Now I have to catch up with Conspiracy. Eek! Have a good reading week.

The covers are amazing. I need to buy the books for my shelves!
I wish you luck on your job search!! I hope the one you find has a good schedule so you can be with your family as well 🙂
I loved Symptoms of Being Human. It opened my eyes a lot. It was also emotional at times with some bullying that happened but I really hope you listen to it and enjoy it. It usually takes me more than a week to finish an audio and it only took me like 3 days to finish this one because I was hooked. The narrator’s voice fits the MC so it was a great audio experience. Can’t wait to read your thoughts on it!

Oh and I have read 24 books this year 🙂
Genesis @ Latte Nights Reviews recently posted…Weekly Latte Rewind ~ 3.5.2016
24! That’s awesome!
Thank you! It’s not an aggressive search right now – but still.
Yes, I really liked Symptoms of Being Human. The narrator did an amazing job, too!
Mmm. Girl scout cookies. Thank Jesus mine are gone. I made my Dad eat the trefoils I had left. I pretty much demo’d the Thin Mints. (Mom had a couple but it was ALL me) Grades Before Girls. Bahaha, I love it. That’s so funny.
Job hunting. BOO. I need to motivate myself to start looking again. I got so burnt out last summer. I need to get back to it.
Why is The Immortal Rules taking awhile? Because of your headache? Or is it not gripping you?
Map of Fates has a gorgeous cover.
As for how many books I’ve read so far, I’ve read 36 total.
Jessica@Lovin’ Los Libros recently posted…Weekly Wrap-Up: February 29-March 4th
I have.. 1 box left? The Tagalongs. The peanut butter tastes WEIRD lol
I haven’t been hard core searching but still looking. You know what’s happening. And it wasn’t that it wasn’t gripping me per se, but I was just reading it slow. Plus my headache, yeah
Job searching. UGH. Just thinking about it gives me stress even though I’m also looking atm. I’m jealous of your girl scout cookies! Girls before grades loool!
Nereyda said she liked Map of Fates and I really liked the first book, but I think I’m waiting until the last one comes out to read it.
Have a great week!

Nick recently posted…The Weekly Recap (181)
51? crazy!
tonyalee recently posted…Weekly Wrap Up (100) – 100th Edition!
It’s just a light search, to see what’s out there but still. The fact that i feel I NEED TO is stressful enough, ya know?
I’m glad she liked it!
Oh I hate job searching – I hope it goes well and you find something you love! I don’t think I finished a book this past week either. Well, maybe one…but yeah, I really need to get on it. lol I have read 26 books this year so far though, which is good for me! I need to pick it up in March though. so many books on my kindle to read! haha

Yes me too! It;s stressful. But something has GOT to give.
26 is good! I actually don’t know how many i am at lol probably around 25-30.
Boo to the cluster headaches! I’ve dealt with migraines since I was a kid so I know it’s no fun!
I’ve read 16 books so far this year!

Good luck on the job search. I’m kind of casually looking myself. Sorry about that nasty headache. You did crack me up about the cookies. I got caught coming out of a store and grab several boxes myself. I leave them in the kitchen cupboard so I have to go in there to get some. Seems to keep me from eating a whole box at once. LOL
Laura Thomas recently posted…What’s New On My Bookshelf #150 and The Sunday Post
Hi! I have read about 25 books so far this year. I plan on reading 12 per month, so I’m on target for that. I really want to read Symptoms of Being Human. I hope you enjoy it. Have a great week.
Ardis @ Pondering The Prose recently posted…Stacking The Shelves #20
LOL on the cookies. Talking to old friends is nice. I plan to listen to Map of Fates too. I hope your job search is fruitful this week.

I forgot Congrats on your 100th Sunday Post *throws confetti*
kimbacaffeinate recently posted…Sunday Post #203 Taking Control One Book at a Time
I’m up to 28 books for the year.
Job searching sucks. So good luck with that. My thoughts are with you. 😉
Have a wonderful week.
Lauren H. recently posted…Blog Tour + Review: Wicked Beautiful by J.T. Geissinger
Girl Scout cookies are pure awesome-eating a whole box by yourself is entirely reasonable 🙂 As for how many books I’ve read this year-technically I’m not tracking my stats, but of course I do the mental math as I read, out of habit lol. So far this year I’ve read 21 and I should be finishing one tonight yet.
Sara recently posted…Censoring Your Kid’s Books
Your instagram photos are so pretty! And girl scout cookies sound awesome.
Good luck with the job hunting!
I think I’ve read about 30 books so far… Trying to catch up on ARCs and such. Hopefully will calm down a bit now 🙂

Your Instagram is lovely! Omg I’m totally with you on the Girl Scout cookies. I’ve eaten wayyy too many in the past few weeks.
Sajda Ouachtouki recently posted…Review: Burning Glass
Ooh, Girl Scout cookies! I didn’t actually buy any this year (and had to pass many adorable begging girl scouts in the process), but friend bought some Lemonades. Unfortunately, those are probably one of my least favorite.
