Welcome to my Monday Musings. On Tuesday I volunteered at an event that ran until 3am the next morning, which threw everything into a tired turmoil for the following few days. I’m definitely not as young as I used to be. It was fun though and I don’t regret going at all.

Glass blowing class - paper weights on Hooked By That Book

In glass blowing news, we got the paper weights that we made the previous week (see the picture here) and in the last class we learned how to blow some glass. I made an awkwardly shaped little glass goblet which I’m ridiculously excited about. Will post a picture next week of this miraculous marvel.

Today is Victoria Day here in Canada and we have been enjoying this long weekend, even though it came with some snow and lots of rain. Well, my garden certainly appreciates all the rain. We did some yard work and of course, I watched the first 4 episodes of Bridgerton. I will watch them again, probably, before the next batch comes out. In the meantime we’re watching the new Outlander episodes on Netflix.

And now on to the reading part of the post. (Mobile users – tap on the image of the book cover. PC users – just hover the mouse over the cover.)


DONE AND DUSTED

I added two new reviews and the latest quickie reviews are here.


FOR THIS COMING WEEK

Some more will inevitably be added as the week goes on.


QUOTES THAT CAUGHT MY EYE

From Fangirl Down by Tessa Bailey:

Those lips would slide down his stomach like chocolate sauce on a scoop of ice cream.

Words were just leaving his mouth without orders from his brain. Had his fucking filter been carried down the shower drain along with the water?


OTHER RECOMMENDATIONS

You can find more recommendations here. Is there anything you’d like to recommend? I’m always open to new authors and new books.

What are you reading? Let me know in the comments below.

And that’s it. Thanks for joining me on this Monday Musings adventure.
