The temperature is rising to the 100s again. Luckily I’ll be at the cool coast this weekend, and hopefully it won’t be so hot by the time I get back.
I was starting to lag behind in my GR goal, so I slipped in some “quick” books I’ve been wanting to read. Now I’m one ahead. We’ll see how long that lasts, especially since I have so much on my plate right now.
Juno sent back its first in-orbit image! How exciting!

For Review:
Excited for the first two, and curious about the third.
Watching
Haha! Love how this rap battle ended. #BossBitch
Yikes, 100’s. Hope the coast is cool! I was at the beach this week and it was mid 70’s when I left and only in the 60’s when I got there- dropped 10 degrees and the wind off the lake- cold! Love that Juno image- how cool is that?
The Operator looks good. Have a great week Christy.
That sounds way too hot, Christy! I’m glad you’ll be off on the coast for the weekend where it’s a bit nicer 🙂
YAY! You got The Operator! That’s one I’m really excited about as well.
Have a wonderful week ahead and happy reading 🙂
I’m so far behind on my GR challenge it stopped being funny ages ago. But I’ll catch up, I just know I will. The Sinner looks, gorgeous, but I haven’t read The Visitor yet, and I’m a bit worried about the romance and all the lack of communication between them. We’ll see. Happy reading!
Ooh! I’m glad you’re going to have some cooler weather. 100s weather doesn’t sound like for me at all. It would make me cranky!
I’m sad you didn’t love love Paper Princess & Undecided, but I’m looking forward to your thoughts!
Have a wonderful week ahead!
Ugh that heat but yay for the cool coast! Enjoy! Can’t wait to see your thoughts on Undecided because I loved that one. Enjoy your new books and have a great week!!
100s, eeeep. Have fun at the coast! I got The Woman in Cabin 10 too so I;ll check out your review after I read the book. Have a great, and cool, weekend!
I’m not even caring about my GR goal this year since I upped it from last year. I’ll just rally my ass at the end 😀
No post for me this week – I’ve been arguing with Photoshop ALL weekend and with the drugs in my system, it’s best I stay off anything social. It would be baaaad!!! I’m hiding in my garbage can on the front stoop now…
Enjoy the beach!!! I hope the water is starting to warm up for ya!!!!!!! 😀
That is awesome! I’m excited for the Jupiter pictures that NASA said will be available sometime in August… thanks for the video, I needed that 🙂
That rap battle – I can’t even deal with it! Too funny! I want the Woman in Cabin 10! I loved her first book and I want more! Thanks for bumping I’m Thinking of Ending Things off my TBR. It’s definitely one I think I will be happier to avoid. Have a great week!
It’s going to be 100 to 108 this week in Vegas. I’m staying inside in the air conditioning as much as possible.
The Juno images are so cool, really mind blowing how far away it is!
Have a great week!
Juno is probably the most exciting thing in space exploration for a while, can’t wait until they release more. That’s a great idea actually, I need a few quickies to bring my Goodreads challenge back up as well. been reading so many long, really heavy fantasy novels lately and they’re taking ages to get through. Have a fabulous week of reading Christy and hopefully the weather has cooled down a little by the time you get back <3
oh yes the 100 degree weather is so fun right? Our A/C has been down the last few days so NOT fun. I do love Juno though, so neat to see.
That image is amazing! We’ve come so far. Been super hot here too and next week looks like more of the same but with less rain.
I couldn’t resist The Sinner either, did you see The Bone Witch on there as well?
We’ve had such a mild July compared to come and I’ve been loving it but it looks like it’s back to the hotter temps this week for us as well. Too bad I’m not at the coast too. 😛
I’m so into astronomy so when NASA shares some pics, I’m all over it! Love the vastness of space. It’s been a relatively mild summer for us, but Mother Nature always gets her vengeance during winter. Lol.
Happy reading, Christy!
Oh gosh, I’m having a lot of heat too. The humidity is just gross. I really need some pool time!
I love the rap battles!!! so hilarious. The Sinner looks good.
That is way too hot
It’s getting hot, here, too. A little miserable. I need an AC vent in the car at knee level, I keep sweating and sticking to my leather seats. I was lagging behind in review writing, so I had to force myself to dedicate the weekend to catching up. I hope you can make up to your GR goal soon.
