The Sunday Post | 28 August 2022
Dear Bookbugs,
It is time for another Sunday Post. The Sunday Post is a book meme hosted by Kimberley @CaffeinatedReviewer.
It is a recap of all the things that happened in your life–blog, book or otherwise.
The festive season is here. Onam, one of the important festivals in Kerala, comes in the second week of September. And guess who is going home? Good weather or not, I am taking that vacation finally!! We are also having a party at work this week. So, overall I am anticipating good things in the coming weeks. It is not going to be too big. Just good food and spending time with family.
Let’s talk about the bookish stuff. I am twelve books behind my Goodreads goal. But, I won’t stress too much about that. I am trying to keep up. Even if I don’t meet the challenge, I will be fine. Also, fun fact, Netflix kept me showing this movie Just Like Heaven starring Mark Ruffalo and Reese Witherspoon. I watch the movie and realise I have watched a similar Malayalam movie. And then, I went down the rabbit hole of the Internet to figure out which one was the remake. In the end, I find out the Malayalam one was released a year before this one. However, both were adaptations of the book, If Only It Were True by Marc Levy. I have never read the author’s book, but I now want to. Any suggestions?
Here is me giving you a quick update on the previous week and things to look forward to in the coming week:
Previous Week Book Reviews
Upcoming Reviews
Review of the Week
I read this review a few weeks back. However, recently I watched the movie, The Lost City and it reminded me of this book. Something about the cover made me think of this book. Anyway, that’s how this is the review of the week, as it is dedicated to those reviews that make a significant impact on me.
Series of the Week
I finished the final episode of Only Murders in the Building. It was a fun show and made me want to read more thrillers, to be honest.
Currently Reading
With that, we have reached the end of another Sunday Post. Hope you enjoyed this week’s updates. Let me know your thoughts in the comments section.
Happy Reading Everyone!!

I usually catch my Goodreads goal up at the end of the year during Christmas vacation if I am behind, which I usually am. Have a wonderful week! Here’s my Sunday Post: https://bonniereadsandwrites.com/2022/08/28/sunday-post-time-to-de-stress-relax-happyplace-deepcreek/
I loved Hook Line and Sinker and The Book of Cold Cases. I love a festive season! Ever since I had my son I like to try and have fun with him by doing activities relating to festivals. He is 4 now so will be off to school in September.
Have a great week ahead!

That is a great way for him learn about festivals and create beautiful memories. I am sure he loves them.
Even though, I had a few issues with Hook Line and Sinker, I enjoyed the book. I have only started Book of Cold Cases. So far it looks promising. You too, have a great week!!
I hope so. He was so young that I don’t know how much stuff he took in but I enjoyed doing bits!
I can understand that. It was my favourite of the two though.
It is good 🙂
Thank you 🙂
Congrats on being able to go home for the festival! I love the look of death at the Manor.
Thank you. I finished it. It was ok. I had too many expectations from the book but it turned out to be quite simple and straightforward. Although, the whole gothic vibe was enjoyable.
I hope you have a wonderful trip home! Enjoy the Book of Cold Cases. I’ve heard great things about it ❤️ Happy reading!
Thank you ❤️❤️ So far the book looks promising . You too, have a great week ahead!!
I was so far behind I lowered my goal. Still behind but not as bad. LOL
I was thinking about lowering my goal too… Let’s see. I will till November. Miracles can happen 😄😄
