The Sunday Post #45 ~sharing blog news and book haul

The Sunday Post ~ 45th Edition

The Sunday Post is a weekly meme hosted by Kimba the Caffeinated Book Reviewer ~ It's a chance to share news~ A post to recap the past week on your blog, showcase books and things we have received and share news about what is coming up on our blog for the week ahead. 

I cannot believe it is March already and the Take Control of Your TBR pile event has started. Be sure and join in the fun. We also have a Take Control read-a-thon scheduled for March 15th to 18th, with fun challenges for you. For the month of February I read 29 books. The Fiery Hot Reads for Icy Cold Nights was a huge success and I want to thank the other wonderful hosts. If you noticed the Clean Sweep ARC Challenge button on the sidebar, then kudos to you for your mad observation skills! Kimberly @The Windy Pages and I will be bringing you a month long challenge in May to clean up those ARC's! Deets coming soon! I hope you all have a wonderful week!
