This week I let my full geek-flag fly :D
Books for review:
The Geeky Chef Cookbook by Cassandra Reader
Guys this is such a cool cookbook! Includes recipes from HP, Doctor Who, Game of Thrones, Hunger Games, and tons more!
The Tide Watcher by Lisa Chaplin
About a woman risking her life as a spy to stop Napoleon! Interesting!
This Monstrous Thing by Mackenzi Lee
Looks so creepy and steampunky! Can't wait to read this!
Other stuffs:
Pop Vinyl Doctor Who: Tenth Doctor
I've been waiting SO long for the Doctor series of these figurines to come out! Finally!
Sherlock "Bored" t-shirt
Guys, I signed up for Nerd Block this month especially because they were doing a British theme--this shirt was definitely my fave thing in the box. Box also included Doctor Who, Mr. Bean, and Monty Python stuff. It was pretty cool! :D
The Weekly Nutshell:
{Monday} Sweetness on Sunday: Blueberry Almond Cream Scones
{Tuesday} Waiting on Wednesday: The Love That Split the World
{Saturday} Review: Siren's Fury by Mary Weber
Just a quick note or I'll sleep through Daddy's Day breakfast tomorrow and be in big trouble LOL. This week I started Game of Love and Death---gorgeous gorgeous writing. Loving so far. Also hoping to read Beastly Bones this week before meeting the author at ALA (eeeeee!). And about that...ALA is a mere five days away gahhhhhh! I am so excited for the books, the authors, chatting with publishers, and hitting a few awesome places to eat in San Fran. As close as I live to the city, I don't really go there that often. The traffic getting in and out is such a headache that we usually stay away. So staying there for the weekend will be a fun little treat. Plus my best friend flies in Friday morning!! YAY! :D
Hope everyone has a great week!

Love the Sherlock "Bored" t-shirt !
ReplyDeleteHave a fun time at ALA! You're probably still trying to read your books from Texas so don't get overwhelmed :) Doing a book convention with a book buddy is the best way to go.
ReplyDeleteI've had my eye on The Geeky Chef Cookbook. I'm pretty sure I ordered a copy for my library's collection (I better have anyway!). Sounds like a really useful and fun book.
ReplyDeleteI hope you have a great time at ALA. I've never been though I have gone to PLA the past two times (Philadelphia and Indianapolis) since I live in Ohio. It is always cool to see authors and other librarians :)
I've never heard of nerd block until just now, I'll have to check it out! You always have a great haul, but this week is exceptional. Have a great week, Becky!
ReplyDeleteGreat haul! This Monstrous Thing sounds really interesting so I'll be looking forward to what you think of it.

Ooh I love the sound of the Geeky Chef Cookbook! I might have to get myself a copy, I've got some free time now and want to try out lots of new recipes. Very intrigued by This Monstrous Thing as well! Happy reading (and have a great time at ALA - so jealous!).
ReplyDeleteI hope you are having a fabulous time at ALA!! I love San Fran, but agree that sometimes dealing with traffic just isn't worth it. This Monstrous Thing looks really interesting and I love your new t-shirt!
