After doing monthly wrap-ups in 2025, I decided to go back to weekly wrap-ups for 2026. I’ll be linking up with The Sunday Post hosted by Caffeinated Reviewer, and Sunday Salon hosted by Readerbuzz. I’ll also be linking up with Stacking the Shelves hosted by Reading Reality, and with It’s Monday, What Are Your Reading? hosted by The Book Date.

Life

I don’t really have a lot to talk about this week, nothing really happened. Mom’s doctor appointment went well. No news to report there.

The temperatures are starting to creep up, nothing major yet, but I’m already feeling the heat… and I don’t do well with the heat. I’m worried about how bad this summer could be, especially since we have no air conditioner.
