Weekly Wrap Up: October 29-November 4

Honestly, this was quite possibly the saddest Halloween. Literally, two small children showed up together and said trick or treat, that’s it! I wish I would have known because then I probably would have dumped a whole bunch of candy in their bags. I need to move somewhere that gets a ton of kids on Halloween so I can give out a bunch of snacks and there will actually be people around to appreciate my decor and spooky ambiance.

What books did you guys read this week, any new favourites? Iโ€™d love to get more recommendations as if my TBR pile isnโ€™t big enough already! What fandoms or mythologies would you like to see me cover? I really need some recommendations. Any reads on your autumn or winter TBRs? Books you’re looking forward to in 2018 or 2019?

    Only two trick or treaters??? That’s a tragedy D: Do kids not understand the importance of candy anymore or something?

    Usually my house gets an okay amount, but this year (despite the pouring rain) we got over a hundred and ran out of candy. I had to shut the door and turn off all the lights so people would stop coming.

    How are you enjoing Reflection? I keep hearing mediocre reviews for the Disney retellings in that collection.

      So far I’ve read two of the three previous books in the series and was not a fan of them. (Mandy read the third.) But Mulan is by a different author, so I have hopes that it’ll be better. Unfortunately, I had to temporarily put it aside for the book club stuff but I’m hoping my library gets an audiobook copy of it so that I can listen when I drive to work.

        Let’s hope the switch in authors makes a difference. A letdown on a fairy tale retelling from *Disney* is the absolute worst ๐Ÿ˜ฆ Yes, let’s get an audiobook going! I still need to get going on trying an audiobook at some point.

        My coworker borrowed the Sleeping Beauty one for her mom and returned a few days later. Her mom said, don’t ever get me one of those books again. Eeek!

    Omigosh, I heard that so much about how low turnout for kiddos was. Sad that it wasn’t all the greatness! ๐Ÿ™‚ Hope you have a good reading week!
