The Sunday Post is hosted by Kimba Caffeinated Book Reviewer.
Thank you all for the birthday wishes last week! It was nice and low-key, but I ended up getting feverish and felling really blah for most of the beginning of the week, so I wasn’t very active blog-wise. I didn’t necessarily feel sick, just not 100%. More like 6o%. Now I’m about 75%. At least I’m passing. lol.
Oh man, and it’s seriously still like summer here with the temps in the 90’s! I’m loving it while it lasts.
On the Blog
- The New Hunger by Isaac Marion (review) – Interesting prequel to Warm Bodies.
- Dirty Thoughts by Megan Erickson (review) – A wonderful 2nd chance romance.

What I’m Watching
Have you seen the trailer for Pride and Prejudice and Zombies yet? I’m definitely looking forward to it. It’s super hot once the proper young ladies start kicking ass. lol
Have a great week!
Are no books sacred anymore?!?! I’ll have to check out that video, just to see what the fuss is 😉
I’m entirely jealous you got November 9!!! Lucky duck… 😀
Hope you’re feeling 100% by now (!?!?!)
-snort- No. Everything must be zombiefied!
Yeah, you don’t want to know what I had to do to get November 9. 😉
Sorry to hear you haven’t been 100%. I took forever to recover from some dreaded lurgy and it’s back again today.
I like the look of November 9!
Yuck, hope you start feeling better.
Feeling below par can just knock us off our perch enough to change things up for us. Hope you are back to close to 100% soon. Hope the KA Tucker book was enjoyable, I’ve enjoyed the one that I did read of hers.
Thanks, Kathryn. And yes, I loved Surviving Ice.
Glad your feeling a little better. Colleen Hoover is still one of those authors I haven’t checked out yet but have been meaning to. Have a great week.
Thanks, Megan. Oh, girl, you NEED to read one of her books. You’ll be addicted once you do.
I am really looking forward to PP and zombies 😀 YAYAYAYA
I think it’ll be good! 😀
Oh dear, I hope you get well soon Christy! I’m really excited for November 9, and keen to see that trailer for P&P and zombies! Thanks for the wrap up.
Yay for getting your hands on November 9, it’s going to be one of those rare auto-buys on the day for me. I can’t wait for a COHo fix!
Sorry you’re not feeling well, feeling blah and off form is nearly worse than being really sick as you have to carry on as normal. I’d rather be sick, sick and able to lie in bed feeling sorry for myself!
I’ll probably watch the film because, y’know, zombies!, though I don’t like the original book at all. I’ll give any book or film with zombies a try…Hope you feel back to full fitness soon!
Oh boo to feeling crappy. Glad you are getting better.I mean you should be feeling ok because you got November 9!! So jealous!I hope it is amazing. It is one of the VERY few book I preordered. Have a great week!
I hope you’ll be back to 100% very soon, Christy, it’s so tiring to feel blah like that!
I’m so jealous you got November 9 for review! I need that book, and I need it now 😀
Did you enjoy Surviving Ice? I loved it, but then again, it’s Tucker, and everything she writes, I love.
Have a fantastic week ahead and happy reading.
Yeah the 90 degree weather is messed up! So tied of it. Sorry you didn’t feel 100%. I know how it feels. I am so excited for the P & P & Z movie!
I’m sorry to hear you’ve not been feeling well. But, I get it… between my allergies and the jetlag from spending a week in California, I’m about beat. I’m probably feeling 80% myself. Shooting for a solid 90% when I return to work on Tuesday. 😉 I got N9 last week too and I can’t wait to read it. I have one book for a review tour that I need to read today, but then N9 is next on my list. I just can’t wait.
Hope you have a great week!
Sorry you weren’t feeling 100% for your birthday. I never feel 100 anymore and have to adjust to my new normal.
Hope you are feeling better!
Pride and Prejudice and Zombies, what a combo! Can’t wait.
Going to check out your New Hunger review, as usual I have the book just never gotten round to reading it!
Have a good week!
I’m waiting for The Walking Dead tonight! Should be another killer season.
I’m glad you are starting to feel better, Christy and can enjoy those new books. I grabbed Koontz new one too!
That is the actress from CINDERELLA & Downton, right? I am not too into Zombies so I didn’t read the book. I wouldn’t mind White Trash Zombie as a movie though.
hope you enjoy the book of ivy, really liked that one 🙂 and feel better!
We got to 90 this weekend too (Friday) and I am so loving it as well! Suppose to cool down a bit but still very much an Indian Summer and I couldn’t be happier about it.
I have felt the same way recently. Not sick necessarily although I have had a stuffy nose and sneezing like crazy but mostly, I just don’t feel right. Not sick just, blah. I hope we both are better soon! I hate not being at 100%.
Pride and Prejudice and Zombies…I’m so there! Stay cool and hope you feel 100% again soon. Happy Sunday, Christy!
Glad you’re percentage is climbing. 🙂 I just noticed the other day the movie for PaPaZ. I have the book but haven’t read it yet (same with The Martian) which is basically the story of my life. *sigh* lol We’ve definitely hit Fall weather here in North Carolina. Temps falling, leaves falling, acorns falling…:D
I’m so sorry you’ve been under the weather Christy, it’s horrible especially with the weather so lovely out. The Burning Sky! I’ve had that one on my Kindle for ages, but have been hesitant to start it for some reason. Really looking forward to seeing what you think of it Christy, So glad to see you’re on the mend now <3 <3 Have a fabulous week and take care you yourself hun.
I am sorry to hear you’re not feeling well. I hope you’ll be back to 100% soon! I don’t have a lot of books on my wishlist on amazon as I can’t buy books there unless I win a gift card, but I think it’s really neat they e-mail you when an item on your wishlist drops. I hope you’ll enjoy your new books and have a great week!
Boo on being sick and for your birthday week too. 🙁 Rest up, read, and feel better!
Sorry to hear you were feeling bad, especially on your birthday. Glad to know you’re doing some better now though.
Yes for November 9! I love Colleen Hoover and I’m really looking forward to this one. Hope you enjoy it and I can’t wait to hear what you think!
OMG November 9! You have to tell us what you think as soon as you read it! I’m so jealous of you. I hope you enjoy it 🙂
I enjoyed Don’t look back and Book of Ivy and hope that you do too–have a great upcoming week.
I hate the feeling 75%! I’m almost rather actually get sick so I can go to bed and be done with it but I complain when that happens too so I guess at 75% I can still get stuff done. Hopefully you’re feeling back at 100% soon. I really want to read Don’t Look Back. I’ve heard great things about it. Have a great week!
Yep. It’s hot. It’s hotter than satan’s balls. Seriously. Makes me not want to leave our hotel room. Lol. And gah. Lucky girl! November 9. WANTTTTTT.
I’m glad you are starting to feel better! and man, it’s super hot there! I couldn’t handle it. ahha I get hot really easy though. Enjoy your books!
Awww… hope you are feeling better soon!
I got Surviving Ice in the post today… but I’m super excited for Nov 9 too… I have a couple of review books to read first, then it will be my reward!
I heard great things about the Ivy one and I have a book by Koontz but I should try it. hapy reading!
I hope you are feeling like your mean old self soon. I am most curious about the New Hoover book myself. Totally want to check that one out. It has been nice and warm here too we are supposed to be back up to 80 this week. Loving the warm weather.
Hope you feel better! its getting cold here, but it was actually nice today. enjoy your pretty new reads
I’m so beyond excited to start November 9!! I want to start it right now, but there are a few others that I need to read first. The wait is TORTURE! lol!! I hope you enjoy your new goodies! 🙂
Nice haul this week. I’m excited for Ashley Bell as well, so I hope to get on that one soon. Hope you have a great week!
Ha! see I am over the warm weather and I am very excited to see the temp drop a bit. (still in the 80s here but the mornings feel a little cooler)
Glad to see you are feeling a little better, and happy belated birthday! I didn’t realize ours were so close (mine is this sunday)
November 9 looks interesting. I can’t wait to see what you think of it.
Happy belated bday (: Hope you’re feeling better now!
Ha, no I haven’t seen the P&P and Zombie trailer, will have to check that out now, lol.
