Welcome to Buffy’s Corner, where I take a look at what’s coming up this week on the blog! I’m linking up with The Sunday Post over at Kimberly’s blog, The Caffeinated Reviewer.
Well, summer has arrived in full force. We actually had to run the air conditioning a couple of times:-( But I really shouldn’t complain. The highs are in the 80s, but I know other places are much worse.
How do you feel about book club (or other types) of stickers on new hardcover books? I personally hate them. I preordered a copy of The Children, and right before the release day, there was an announcement that it had been selected for Jenna’s Book Club. I crossed my fingers that maybe my preorder wouldn’t have the dreaded sticker, but unfortunately:
And this isn’t the kind of “sticker” you can peel off. Ugh. I mean, I’m happy for Melissa Albert, but come on. Let’s add those labels after the first print run at least! If anyone knows of a special edition of this book, please let me know! I’m willing to buy it again:-)
Upcoming reads & reviews:
This was a slower reading week. Unfortunately, I did not enjoy Headlights as much as I was hoping, and it took most of the week to get through it. I will post my review tomorrow. I’m currently reading Hopeless Necromatic, which is not off to a good start, I’m sorry to say (if you’ve read it, please tell me it gets better!). I also started The Sixth Nik and I love it so far! After that I’ll probably start It Came From Neverland.
Other posts this week:
After a packed week, I’m taking things a bit easier, lol. I’ll have two reviews, and of course I’ll share my picks for Future Fiction on Wednesday. I may do the Six in Six tag later in the week (I’m linking up to Emma’s post since the original host isn’t blogging anymore). Since I had two Summer of Horror lists last week, I’m taking a week off:-)
