Stacking The Shelves [#94]/Sunday Post [#26]

Stacking The Shelves is hosted by Tynga's Reviews and Reading Reality as a way to share all the books we got during the week!

The Sunday Post is hosted by Kimberly @ Caffeinated Reviewer. Its a weekly post to showcase what books you got, recap the week, and talk about what will be coming up this week on the blog!

Tempests and Slaughter (The Numair Chronicles #1) by Tamora Pierce

So I got this pretty thing for $9 dollars at my used book store. Poster still in the book and everything. So while this book is sitting on the shelves of Barnes & Noble full price. Someone turned in a copy to the used bookstore and I got it for only $9. YAY! Also, the cashier totally went all fan girl over Tamora Pierce's books. I have to admit, it was pretty cool seeing someone fan girl over a favorite author just like I do!

So I got two books reviewed this week! Yay!! :D

We got some big title news this week! The title for the final book in the Throne of Glass series was revealed! It's:

I've been working behind the scenes more this week than writing posts. If you have seen my reviews this week, you'll notice I finally have a colored background for the book descriptions! I finally figured out how to add the css coding to do that! Shush, don't judge, I'm not the fastest learner of html or css. LOL. But this is something I've been wanting to do for my reviews for a while! I think it makes them look much better! :D I've also been tweaking things here and there.

I've also been brainstorming discussion posts. I have some ideas I'll be working on the next few days and scheduling. A few are for specific days/holidays in the next two months. If there's a topic you want me to tackle, make sure to leave it in the comments! :)

Guys, Arizona is not fun. Its the beginning of April and its already hot. It's seriously supposed to get up to 93-96 degrees this upcoming week. I'm so far beyond not amused. It's April and it's almost 100 degrees. Its too hot already guys! This really isn't a fun state to live in for 75% of the year because of the heat. I'd honestly rather go back to living in a state with humidity.

Last Sunday was Easter. We had a lot of fun! Ana got some cool stuff. If your well versed in Disney Junior/Nick Jr shows, you'll recognize the names of the stuff she got. She got a Peppa Pig Easter Pail and coloring set, Mickey & The Roadster Racers and Puppy Dog Pals coloring books. She also got a cool magazine completely dedicated to the show Vampirina. She also got Paw Patrol stickers. And an Owelette (PJ Masks) lunch box for her to store the candy she got in. She was pretty happy with the stuff she got. And she had a fun time hunting eggs! So I failed to get a good picture of Ana with her stuff. Lol. But I got a great picture of my sweet kitty Brodie! We might have had fun and covered him in Easter grass to make him festive. Lol. He's such a chill cat though and rolled with it!
