F is For Friday – June 22, 2018

F is for friday

F is For Friday is a weekly meme hosted by Nomadic Worlds! This is my first time to do one. Make sure to join in on the fun! 😀

Rules:

  1. Credit the creator of this tag (here!) and link back.
  2. Answer the four questions to the best of your ability.
  3. Most important of all, enjoy yourself!

Questions:

F – Feature your latest book obsession (it doesn’t have to be your current read)
I – Indicate which book/s you are looking forward to reading this weekend.
F – Favorite quote of the week/day
F – Five things you’re happy or grateful for this week.

F – Feature your latest book obsession

Even though I read it a while ago, I am still obsessed with A Most Noble Heir! (Check out my review here.) Royal/Medieval/Renaissance/British/1800s books are just my favorite things in the whole world! I love a nice castle setting. (I’ve also been binge watching The Hollow Crown, lately… Anyone else adore this show?!) If  you have any recommendations on more books like this, I would love to hear them!

I – Indicate which book/s you are looking forward to reading this weekend.

I’m mostly just going through all the ones authors have sent me for review; but, following with the theme of the last question, I have started reading A Brush with Death by Ali Carter. Think Agatha Christie, Sherlock HolmesDownton Abbey, and dogs mushed together…. Okay, I’m excited!!

F – Favorite quote of the week/day

I can’t really think of a favorite one, so I’ll just go with this for now. “It was as if sitting there, in this little hole-in-the-wall pizza joint, the rest of the world faded away and all she could see for miles was the beach, the lake, and endless possibilities.” – Just Let Go by Courtney Walsh (review coming out tomorrow!). I can always relate to pizza quotes. Haha!

F – Five things you’re happy or grateful for this week.

  1. Best friends. My friend has been amazing these past few weeks. She’s such a blessing in my life, and I don’t know what I would do without her!
  2. Two-year-old nieces. She shows me the joy in life and how to appreciate the little things! Babysitting is never uneventful.
  3. Good books. Our very own portals into new worlds!
  4. Dads. Sunday was Father’s Day, and I had a wonderful time watching Incredibles 2 with him! (It had a few curse words, though. That part was super disappointing!) It’s special to do things like that because it reminds me of when I was little. ❤
  5. Beds. Naps are my friends! I had food poisoning last week, and my bed got me through it. Ha!

Thanks for reading! I really enjoyed making this post! What were you grateful for this week?

  1. Cool meme! I’ve not seen this one before and think it’s a nice short and sweet one ^_^

    I’m probably going to be reading Ali Carter’s Heist Society books pretty soon and would love to hear more about A Brush with Death once you’ve read it! I’m new to her work, but I saw an interview with Leigh Bardugo where she recommends her books for how to write a heist story (as she does in Six of Crows).

    1. I really enjoyed this meme!

      I’m sad to say, but so far A Brush with Death is a teensy bit of a letdown. Maybe I had too high of expectations? I’m hoping it’ll get better by the end. I’ll post my review in a few weeks! Thanks for reading!

  2. Aw, I love the five things you are grateful for. That’s such a sweet and unique touch to a weekly meme. I think reflecting on what we have and who we have around us is a wonderful thing to do every once in a while, or even better: every week 🙂
