The Sunday Post is a meme hosted by Kimba the Caffeinated Book Reviewer. ~ Inspired by the meme In My Mailbox.~It’s a chance to share News. A post to recap the past week, showcase books and things we have received and share news about what is coming up for the week on our blog.
Yesterday was tiring. I wasn’t (and still am not) feeling that great and then add two problem/creepy customers to mix and I ended up heading home early. So now I’m hoping that it’s some that will pass and I’m not coming down with the latest strain of flu.
Despite the awful day yesterday this month has been really good for the store, but I wish the weather would just stay steady because the heating bill is definitely going to suck up all the profit I made.
Question: Would you be interested in more reviews about bookish items I find? Like the Frostbeard candles or maybe candles from From the Page? I’d be willing to branch out to other products as well, maybe like those listed in my gift guide.
Books Read:
- The Martian by Andy Weir
- Prodigy by Marie Lu
FitReaders Progress:
I’m still doing the 30 Day Flat Ab and 30 Day Butt Lift challenges, though I have hit a snag in my exercise routine since I haven’t been feeling well enough to ready exert myself too much. So once this bug or whatever starts waning I’m going to jump back in.

For Review
- Dead Spots by Rhiannon Frater – I requested this from Tor and they actually sent me a copy! I am over the moon excited right now, and I’ve already started (soo good! soo creepy!)
I am waiting on my next Influenster Voxbox to show up. So expect a product review or two in the semi near future.

Glad to hear the store is doing well, and I liked your Taylor Swift post! Great idea. Hope it’s a good week for you.
EWww creepy customers! They are going to be everywhere unfortunately. Good luck with your fit challenge, I think it’s a wonderful thing to participate in! The gift guide is a great idea.
I totally missed the bookish gift guide last week. I will have to drop back and have a look. I requested a physical book once from a publisher, but I never heard anything back. It was so long ago I don’t even remember what the title was. 😛 Have a fab week!
I rarely ever request books, just because it feels awkward but I love Tor. 🙂 Most of the time I don’t hear anything back either, lol.
I’d love reviews on bookish products, buying something you haven’t seen is always scary so its good to see reviews from someone you know. Sorry about the creepy customers, that doesn’t sound fun!
Awesome, thanks for the feedback Trish! And yeah…creepy customers are always trying on the nerves.
Ick! Sorry to hear about the problem/creepy customers. Hopefully they’re not regular visitors. Also hope it’s only a little cold and you’re not coming down with any strain of the flu. I’ve been lucky and only had it once but it was no fun. I’d love reviews on bookish products! The Frostbeard candles are on my To-Buy list partly because of your review earlier and now I’m curious about From the Page Candles. Have a great week and feel better soon!
Sorry you haven’t been feeling so good, I haven’t much myself. Perhaps we’ll both be feeling better by next week! I’m excited about Dead Spots. It looks so good!
Ugh, creepy customers are not good. Hope you’re feeling better. Yeah, reviews about other book related products would be cool.
I do feel a bit better, I’m just feeling run down today.
Nothing worse than a creepy customer – especially if you are alone in a store. Eeeps! Glad you are feeling better.
I hope you feel better soon. It seems like flu started early and is lingering for round to for a lot of people. Mine was over Christmas week. Second year in a row I had to miss the holidays.
I didn’t get in the tour for Dead Spots but I’d already grabbed the book. I love Rhiannon!

Yes, I’d love bookish item reviews. I’m a huge fan of all that stuff. 🙂 Glad you had a good month at the store, but sorry the last few days haven’t been awesome. Feel better!

Oh no! I really hope it’s not the flu! I’m finally over that annoying cold I had all last week plus some.
Sorry to hear about the those creepy customers. Hope this week will be nothing but amazing for you! ♥
