The Sunday Post (10 April) (Late Edition)


The Sunday Post is a weekly meme hosted by Kimberly of Caffeinated Book Reviewer. It’s a chance to share news. A post to recap the past week on your blog and showcase books and things we have received. Share news about what is coming up on our blog for the week ahead.

It's been both a busy and an easy-going week this week. My parents were away for the majority of the week. So I had a bit of time to get caught up on reading and blogging. However, I didn't actually get as much as I wanted done actually done. Between clearing out my wardrobe and watching a few movies, I didn't leave myself much time to get any blogging done. As a result, it's a quiet week on the blog this week.

However, My Expanding Bookshelf passed a couple of small milestones this week. So as a result, I'm holding a little International Giveaway here. Feel free to enter to win a book of your choice!

On Saturday, I had a busy day. I went out for lunch and cocktails with my future sister-in-law and her best friends and she officially asked us to be bridesmaids and gave us adorable little personalised favours.

Then on Saturday night, I went around to a friend's to watch Britains Got Talents and have a few drinks. The few drinks turned into 2 bottles of wine each and a few shots and I got home at 5:40 on Sunday morning. This meant I was too tired to read much on Sunday, so I sort of wasted that day.

Feature and Follow (29 May)

The Feature & Follow is hosted by TWO hosts, Parajunkee of  Parajunkee’s View  and Alison of  Alison Can Read . Each host will have their own Feature Blog and this way it’ll allow us to show off more new blogs! I'm one of the featured blogs this week! Along with Amanda of  The Darling Bookworm . This week’s Question: How many books have you got on your TBR list? I recently had a bit of a cull of my TBR list so now it is sitting at 269. I'm trying my hardest to get it below 200 by the end of the year but I really don't see it happening. I'd currently be happy if I managed to get it below 225. However, I did recently have a look through my TBR on Goodreads and deleted a few books that I don't think I will actually ever read - I'm not even to sure how they got there anyway. Follow me via  Goodreads ,  Facebook ,  Bloglovin  and  Pinterest  and also via email to myexpandingbookshelf@gmail.com.  Feel free to leave a comment.
