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.
You’ll be happy to know I finally finished cataloging and shelving my “S” books, and I’m on to T. I’m hoping by the end of the year I’ll be able to write up a post about my library. Although maybe it’s only exciting to me, lol.
The weather here is pretty nice, in the mid-70s to the low 80s, although I do feel bad for folks in the Los Angeles area, where they’re having a heat wave with highs in the low 100s! Ugh. I guess living at 6000 feet has its benefits, lol. I hope everyone is reading something good this week:-)
Upcoming reads & reviews:
Once again I went completely rogue with my reading plans. I decided to pick up two novellas that weren’t even on my list last week: Find Me Where It Ends and The Killing of a Chestnut Tree. Both were amazing, and I will probably post reviews of both this week. I’m currently reading Mazywood (I’m loving it so far but have NO idea where it’s going, lol), which will take me most of the week since it’s about 500 pages, and then it’s time to dive into my most anticipated book of October, Off the Reservation.
Other posts this week:
Tuesday it’s time for a quarterly check-in as I share my most anticipated books of the 4th quarter; and Wednesday is Future Fiction as usual.
In case you missed:

Looking forward to your review of Find Me Where it Ends!
I really loved it!
I live at 5800 ft — it feels great here! Find Me Where It Ends sounds interesting – can’t wait to hear what you think 🙂
I enjoy living at a higher elevation!
Ooh, I’m glad you liked The Killing of a Chestnut Tree. I really want the next one already!
I loved Havelock and Sebastian and I thought the way the story was constructed was clever:-)
Hope you have a great week! Looking forward to hearing more about the novellas!
Thanks Lisa, you too!
If/when I move again to a smaller place, I’ll need to go through all my books, to clean out as well as I hope maybe catalog too! Fun project! Love the photo of Badger too. Hope you have a good week!
Thanks Lisa! I the downside to cataloguing your books is you have to keep up with it. Like if you decide to give some away, you have to remember to remove them from your list. But that’s a problem for another day, lol.
I’m really looking forward to Mazywood so I hope you love where it ends up! 🙂
It’s a crazy book! I am only halfway through and I STILL don’t know where it’s going.
Well the weather is lovely here too but way too hot for October! You would believe we are at the beginning of July! Also we need some rain.
Yes, rain would be nice! It’s pretty warm here for October too. But soon enough I’ll be complaining about the cold, lol.
Your weather sounds great. Ours is also in the 70-80s now. Badger is always unleashed. If our previous do Gina was loose she took off like a rocket and it took time to find her. Lulu on the other hand stays right by us but she is never unleashed for walks. Love the Badger photo!
Most of the photos my husband takes of Badger are on their off leash walks, but he only does off leash out in the desert where there aren’t any cars or people. He’s very well trained and sticks by my husband and comes when called. He will go off and chase rabbits and coyotes but comes right back. I never walk him off leash!
This is how most of my reading plans end. I make a perfectly sensible list, then some unexpected book waves from a dark alley and off I go.
Sounds familiar!
I need to read, “The Only Few Indians,” before I can read the sequel. I can’t find my copy right now. Oops!
I don’t think you have to read it first, if that helps!
You’re making progress with the organisation of your books, yay!! And it seems like going rogue with your reading was the best idea, since you loved them both! I loved your review of Find Me Where it Ends ( I am seriously thinking about trying this book for myself) and I am really curious about The Killing of the Chestnut Tree!
I do love going rogue, sometimes you just have to:-)
Michigan has settled firmly into the fall weather. Hope you have a great week!
I’m glad you have Fall weather! Have a great week:-)
I look forward to learning more about your library. I’d love to have one myself eventually. At the moment I have books stashed in underbed storage and in the back of my wardrobe /: Sounds like you’re on a roll with your reading options and I can’t wait to hear how you find the new Stephen Graham Jones. Hope you have a lovely week.
Thank you Charlotte! I should be starting the SGJ book today or tomorrow:-)
What – how can a library possible be boring to anyone. I am absolutely interested.
I’m hoping to pick up Mazywood soon too – hope we both love it.
Lynn 😀
I’m hopefully finishing Mazywood today. It’s soooo good and not at all what I expected:-)
Always fun to fit in some unplanned books, and novellas are a great way to do that. Keep enjoying that weather!
Hurrah for finishing the “S” section! Please do write a post about your library—I would love to read it! It sounds like going rogue with your reading list paid off big time with those two amazing novellas. And I love that picture of Badger so much! That one is frame-worthy!
