Buffy’s Corner 7/12/26 – Looking at the Week Ahead

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.


It’s been a long, hot week here, with temps in the high 80s most days. Ugh. We have a few days coming up with cooler temperatures, but then they are going back up again. Hey, summer! We also have a pretty big fire burning close to us, so we’re all sort of on fire watch. I doubt we’ll have to evacuate, but you never know. Fingers crossed they will get it under control soon.

Today’s photo is from our garden, one of the four or five species of woodpeckers that live up here. We love our woodpeckers!

I hope everyone is staying cool and reading good books!

Upcoming reads & reviews:

It’s been a slow reading week. I’m just distracted by other things, not sure why. But I will post two reviews this week, even if I have to stay up past my bedtime finishing them, lol. Mudlark is very slow. It’s OK, but it’s not blowing me away like I hoped it would. My review will be up tomorrow. I’ve also dipped into Be Still My Unbeating Heart. It’s also just OK at this point. It’s a little goofier than I like, and the writing is rather simplistic, but maybe it’s because I’ve been reading some absolutely fantastic, well written books lately, so I’m comparing it to those. We’ll see how it goes as I get further in. After that, I’m probably going to pick up The Farewitch of Foxe Holler and Bestiary.

Other posts this week:

Tuesday I’m (finally!) posting my Most Anticipated Books of the Third Quarter (and next week will be my Mid Year Freak Out post – July is so busy!); Wednesday is Future Fiction as usual; and Friday I’ll share another Summer of Horror list, although right now I’m not sure what it will be.
