Sunday Sum-Up: I Don’t Really Know What Happened Last Week!

Happy Sunday and welcome back to another Sunday Sum-Up!

Looking back at last week, I am not really sure what happened. I spent most of it self-isolating, so I spent a lot of time on blogging and reading, I think. I am out of my self-imposed quarantine now, so I am excited for family movie nights and petting my dogs more often! LOL!

I have also been working on a rough outline for a Sri Lankan Book Bloggers Directory and I feel like I am getting somewhere. I will probably start reaching out to the few bloggers that I know to see if they would like to be a part of it sometime next week, so I am very excited about that bit!

Though I said I have been reading the past week, I think I read most of one book for the entirety of that duration. I am almost done with Incursion by Mitchell Hogan. It has got some really great world-building and action going on, so I am seriously contemplating buying the rest of the series even with my overwhelming TBR and book tours piling up! LOL! Wish me luck!

And that’s it for my personal updates! Let’s get on with our regularly scheduled Sunday Sum-Up!

I made a list of all mystery & thriller new releases coming in the second half of 2021!

I discussed my experience with blogger identity crisis and why I believe it’s good to take a step back and re-evaluate.

Since we’re almost done with August, my book haul is here to expose all my bookish shopping confessions!

And that’s the end of another Sunday Sum-Up! Hope you have a great week ahead, readers!
