Weekly Wrap-Up~ 5/31-6/6/26
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.

I have booked in to go to the launch of A Study in Sparkling! Can’t wait! I loved The Academic Affair so much.
Also just finished reading First Time Caller so I am really looking forward to And Now Back To You.
Your finished books are all 4 and 5 stars. Hope the other books will be enjoyable too.
You have some terrific books on your shelves!
Summer without aircon can be tough, keep an eye out on marketplaces that have ‘buy nothing’ pages or local charity shops for a portable aircon so you can keep at least one room cool.
Thanks for sharing your week
Happy to hear your mom’s doctor’s appointment went well! I hope that the summer won’t be too warm for you.
Looks like you had a great reading week!
It’s getting hotter here too. It was in the 90s over the weekend. I hated it. 🙂 I hope you’re having a good week!
Not Here to be Liked sticks out to me. I have a feeling l would like the FMC.

It’s already so hot here that we could not make it without air conditioning. I’m glad to see how much you liked And Now, Back to You.
