This week’s Weekly Geeks theme is to catch up on… something. I feel like lately I’m always catching up so this week’s theme fits me perfectly.
First I want to catch up on an award that was given to me by Mrs. B of The Insatiable Reader and Nicole from Book Escape. They shared with me the “I Love Your Blog” award (thank you ladies!) and now the best part is that I get to share this with some of my favorite bloggers.
I present this to:
Danielle of A Work in Progress
Isabel of Books and Other Stuff
Melody of Melody’s Reading Corner
Stephanie of Stephanie’s Written Word
Gentle Reader of Shelf Life
Ann of Table Talk
Andi of Tripping Toward Lucidity
Now, what else am I going to catch up on this week? Well, bloghopping has become something I have to catch up on a constant basis. I’m not alone in that right?
Next up on my list is that I hope to catch up on book reviews. I’ve read my two books for Carl’s R.I.P. challenge (they were so good) and am actually trying to finish up another. I also want to post two reviews for a giveaway I’m hosting at the end of this week so please be sure to drop in and enter the giveaway. I’ll give you a hint, if you love historical fiction you won’t want to miss this.
Finally, I just want to catch up on my reading. I’ve got piles of books I can’t wait to read. One which I haven’t started is Ruth Hall by Fanny Fern. This is the next book for the Slaves of Golconda discussion and I get the feeling I’m going to be super late to that discussion. Oh man, I need a 48 hour day, don’t you?
Alright, off to get started on those piles of books.
What a nice coincidence, Iliana! I presented you with the same award on my blog too! 😉
Thank you so much for the award! I really appreciate it! 🙂
And oh yes! I definitely need a 48 hour day! I feel there’re tons of things waiting for me to do…
AWwwww! Thank you sooo much, Iliana! I *heart* your blog too!
Congrats on the award – well deserved and you made some good choices for your picks. I will try to make time to visit them all soon.
Congratulations on the award! Looks like we have the same neighbors in bloggieland. 🙂
You’re definitely not alone, I’m always behind on blog hopping!
I want to catch up on my reading too. I started off well this month but slowed right down. Hopefully I’ll get some good reading time in this weekend.
Congrats on the award, Iliana!
You are definitely not alone…how I wish my days had 48 hours.
Thanks so much–that’s very kind of you to include me in your list–it made my day! 🙂 I’ve done pretty well on Carl’s challenge, too. I’m now reading my third book and it’s not even October! I’m always behind in bloghopping, so I can totally understand–a 48 hour day would be great–evenings go too fast (and workdays so slow!!). And now that you’ve tempted me, I will be sure to see what books you are offering as giveaways, since you know historical fiction is my thing. And I’m not too far in Ruth Hall either, but the chapters are very short and it reads fast. I may be a little tardy finishing, too, though.
Thanks for passing that award on to me! You are too sweet!
Melody – What synchronicity! I can only imagine how crazy busy you must be lately! 🙂
Andi – 🙂
Christine – They are good aren’t they. Now, if only we could do a real awards show – I want to meet my bloggy friends 🙂
Matt – I love my neighbors 🙂
Tanabata – I hope you get some good reading time in! I don’t know how I can be so behind. I’m not even working for crying out loud!! I’ve told my husband I’ll take a job as long as I can still blog and blog hop as much. ha,ha…
Nymeth – I think we should all petition for longer days 🙂
Danielle – I’m so surprised I’ve been doing this well on Carl’s challenge. I used to be so up to date on my blog hopping but that’s before the book blog world exploded. haha… There are so many wonderful book bloggers now… granted this is not good for my wish list 😉
Stephanie – 🙂
Congratulations! You definitely deserve it!
Anna – Thank you – you are so sweet! 🙂
