Sunday Post. Bustling Octobers

Sunday Post is a meme hosted by Caffeinated Book Reviews.

Hello, fellow bookworms! How are you doing? Can you believe spooky August is almost over?! 👻 I know it has been a long time since I've joined Sunday Post -- I've actually been keeping myself very busy, so there's a lot to share. Without any further delay, let me share with you what I've been up since my monthly recap.

What has been happening in my life:

🌻 Remember the other fellowship I told you I applied to? I also didn't get it. 😞 It will be hard to keep following this path. If you know of anyone who is looking for these services, please, let me know.

🌻 Sadly, I haven't felt like reading, which means I will not be reading 70 books this year.

🌻 I'm currently watching The Haunt of Bly Manor. It's starting to get confusing.

🌻 I attended two online conferences (I did not present my own research) -- one about dystopias and another one about Digital Humanities and Children's Fiction. I now want to start a thousand new projects. 😋 Also, due to the last conference, I'm now a voluntary translator of children's books.

🌻 The post I want to share on my 10th blog-anniversary is so behind schedule! 🙈

• I shared a list of twenty-one young adult spooky reads to everyone who wishes to enjoy Halloween from the comfort of their own home.

• I was invited to be part of A Golden Fury blog tour and shared my review of this tale of treason and terrible curses.

 

Around the Blogosphere is once again back! 😄 Here are some discussion posts that called my attention, even though I've yet to comment.

• Amber @ The Literary Phoenix talked about building likeable villains.

• Aiofe @ Pretty Purple Polka Dots shared a list of terrifying book characters.

• Lindsey @ A Rambling Reviewer compiled a list of binge-worthy shows for Autumn.

Since I received a 10% discount voucher from Book Depository, I decided to get myself some new physical books. I ordered three books -- one of them has yet to be published. Thus, The Handmaid's Tale by Margaret Attwood and Scarlet by Marissa Meyer arrived this week at my home.

Are you having a spooky October? Did you receive any new books this week?
