Sunday Post: Book Pre-order Campaigns & Giveaways Galore – 8/16/20

The Sunday Post is a weekly meme hosted by Kimba @ Caffeinated Book Reviewer ~ It’s a chance to share news~ A post to recap the past week on my blog and share news about what’s coming up in the week ahead.


This past week on FYFA (and in my life):

  • We watched:
    • My daughter Danielle (and my son, Noah, who has joined us in watching) and I are now six episodes into season 7 of The 100! We’re catching up!
  • Packing and planning. My oldest leaves for college on Thursday! This Thursday. I can hardly believe it.
  • Painting. As I mentioned last week, we bought my younger daughter a new bed. It needed a paint refresh, so we repainted the whole thing and then added some blue accents. We also started prepping for painting Jade’s room. Oh, and we bought a new (used) bed for Noah, who will be moving into Danielle’s old room.
  • Reading
    • I read The Black Kids (see my review, which was posted yesterday).
    • I also finished listening to Divided We Fall by Trent Reedy.
  • Digit! Digit’s cute little ears change by the hour. Sometimes both are down, sometimes he’s sporting the one-up, one-down look and sometimes they’re both up! I didn’t think that dog ears worked this way, but apparently Digit likes to stay unique. (And, yes, that is a clamp that it looks like Digit’s gnawing on in that one picture; it’s the perfect bully stick holder—it prevents him from swallowing that last little bit, which can be dangerous. He’s actually chewing the bully stick, not the clamp.)

Here’s what you may have missed on the blog since my last Sunday Post:
