Weekly Update #227, August is already half-way over...


Welcome to my Weekly Update where I post my blog's schedule for the week!

I'm linking up to The Sunday Post, hosted by Kimba @ The Caffeinated Book ReviewerTynga's Reviews for Stacking the Shelves and Mailbox Monday showcasing the books I added to my shelves or Kindle this week, and It's Monday! What Are You Reading? hosted by Kathryn @ Book Date.

I feel like this summer has just gone by way too fast for my taste. I've missed a lot of new releases that I was hoping to get to and I know fall is just around the corner with its release season, so I've decided I need to get back to reading consistently and gear up for my read-a-thon in September, which I'm really looking forward to. How about you? Are you keeping up with your books?


This coming week is going to be blissfully light for me. I have had a non-stop summer, then just finished dealing with the craziness of getting the kids back in school plus studying for a professional license (I took the test Friday morning and passed and am ecstatically happy to have it over!), and am so happy to have a mostly open schedule this week. I'm looking forward to finally, finally getting back on Instagram and doing some things I've neglected (like more reading!).

There's quite a mix of books this week on the blog. Here's what to expect:

This August I'm participating in Proper Romance's Romance Awareness Month and it's going to be a blast! You'll see a couple of posts spotlighting this line of books every week this month.
You'll also be seeing these books this week:
An Ocean AwayThe Duke's BrotherLove at First Bark (Love Unleashed)

I was really good and didn't grab any books from NetGalley, Edelweiss or anywhere else this week, although, honestly, I didn't have time to.

My monthly giveaway is also spotlighting Romance Awareness Month with the Proper Romance line (thanks to Shadow Mountain Publishing). Check out the giveaway to win three of their books: 

I've been hosting a meme this year called Can't-Wait Wednesday that is taking over for my Waiting on Wednesday posts since the host, Jill over at Breaking the Spine, went inactive in August 2016. You're welcome to join in or link up your Waiting on Wednesday posts each week. Find out more here.

The Instagram challenge, #WishfulWonder, that Rissi over at Finding Wonderland and I host is almost over for July. I posted the prompts for August here and am including it below. Feel free to participate at any time, be it a day or two or more.
Those of you who have followed my blog for a while will have seen that I host an annual read-a-thon, Tackle Your TBR. This year's is coming up and will run September 11th through 24th. You can find out more here.
