The Sunday Post is a weekly meme hosted by Kimba at Caffeinated Book Reviewer.
What's Happened on the Center Stage
- The first review in a series of reviews of Queen Victoria's Book of Spells-An Anthology of Gaslamp Fantasy by Ellen Datlow and Terri Windling.
- Updated my reading challenges. Find out many pages I've read to my goal of 20,000 pages!
- Updated my Oscars Edition of Waiting on Wednesday.
- Feature & Follow Friday #189 gave me a chance to show my emotional side.
- This week's quote of the week is about setting expectations.
- Props and a several nods of agreement when I read Alison's post about How TV Turned Me Into a Reader. I wouldn't have even attempted Martin's Fire and Ice Series if I hadn't seen the HBO series first. Being a reader has also opened me up to shows I didn't look twice at a few years ago like Supernatural and Doctor Who. Reading isn't about genres, as Alison points outs about sci-fi, it's about the human condition. Perhaps that is why dystopian fiction has taken off recently, it shows us the best and worst of the human condition.
- Mulled over Entertainment Geekly: The New Rules of Spoilers.
- With a name like Terri, I really identified with the BuzzFeed List that Rainbow Rowell tweeted: 16 Things Only People With Unique Names Will Understand.
- Still thinking about my summer vacation and wishing these libraries were real.
- Check out Bea's Book Nook: February Kindle Fire HDX Giveaway. Ends on 02/28/2014.
- As a Whovian, I couldn't resist sharing this image that was posted via Facebook this week.
