Life In General

I finally broke down and went to the Dr. Thursday, I have a terrible sinus infection, so antibiotics and resting. The resting I have been doing so now maybe this infection will get out of my body! I did get some book mail, so I guess that is exciting right? Since I have not been able to go to the bookstores, I have been online doing my thing 😂 I bought some of Sylvia Plath’s old books because of my curiosity as to her mindset when she committed suicide. The Bell Jar, The Unabridged Journals of Sylvia Plath, and Letters Home: Correspondence 1950-1963. I also purchased Maybe Next Time by Cesca Major (a Reese Witherspoon Book Club Pick). And I pre-ordered Miss Austen Investigates: The Hapless Milliner by Jessica Bull. I have done some book reviews but most of them were for book tours so they are not published yet. So that is the extent of my exciting week.

I posted reviews for these last week:
