Rabid Reader Recap (9) 8/18/2013 through 8/25/2013
This post is in something of a similar style to The Sunday Post, hosted by Kimba @ Caffeinated Book Reviewer, as well as Showcase Sunday hosted by Books, Biscuits and Tea; and Stacking the Shelves, hosted by Tynga’s Reviews.
It has been very busy, busy busy on the blog this week! I had lots and lots of posts, awesome and amazing stuff, too. Bout of Books was this week, and today is the final day. So I am scrambling to get some more pages in before midnight tonight, trying to see what I can accomplish this week. I have already finished four books, and i participated in some awesomely fun challenges. I had a minor snafu when my kindle decided to be difficult and wanted to freeze up, but that seems to be almost behaving now. I am thinking maybe I have too much on it, but it says I have almost 2 gigs of space left, so I am just not sure what it’s issue is.
And around the blogosphere, I guest posted at Ensconced in YA about what I would like to see more of in YA books.,
So enough babbling for now, and onto the posts!
So, the posts. Here is what we had.
