Non-Bookish News:
There is a saying: “There is no tired like teacher tired after the first week of school” and its true. Its getting back into the groove after summer break, learning new students, establishing routines. Thankfully this year I am not having to learn new students because I have sophomores and seniors. Overall, the first week went well. Hopefully the trend continues!
I was in bed super early all week because teaching is exhausting. Having to make a million decisions a day really wears your brain out. So, my reading is so behind. I have so many reviews scheduled for this week and I haven’t finished a single book on the list. I am almost done with How to Love a Duke in 10 Days and will probably finish today (Saturday) but I’m so behind!
I actually won a goodreads giveaway! And, its for a book I really loved! I got a hardback copy of Blood Truth by JR Ward! Yay!
So, whats new with you this week? Did you read any of the same books I did? Did you find any great book deals I need to grab ASAP? Let me know in the comments!
Girl, I haven’t even been able to sleep much nor eat much. It’s been so draining. I just want a break already.
I’m gearing up to be tired, too. I start teaching tomorrow. And I have many new students (I think I only know five out of 74. I do look forward to starting up again, but I know it’s going to take a little while for me to find my rhythm.
I hope next week is better for you!
Have a wonderful week ahead, hopefully with a little more reading 🙂
Oh I can imagine how exhausting it must be the first week of school! I hope you get back in the swing of things soon so you can go back to reading!
Congrats on winning a GR giveaway! I won one some time back and never again!
I recall my mom being tired the first weeks of teaching Samantha! Hang on tight! How is the hearing going?
My hearing is about the same. Its not better, but its not worse and I was able to make it through the week without having a major panic attack due to lack of hearing.
I’m glad your first week back went well! I can definitely understand how it could be tiring. Hurray for winning a giveaway though! I hope your next week is amazing!
That’s really nice that you already have a relationship with your kids. It’s always tough getting back into the swing of things, so I am glad it is going well for you.
Here’s hoping the next week is better. I have so many things I am trying to do and just have to do the best I can. I hate being so tired I can’t read at night though. Happy reading!
Make sure you relax over the weekend, you deserve it!
I’d like to read Thirteen.
Wishing you a great reading week
So far, I am LOVING Thirteen. Its really interesting!
Glad to hear you loved How to Love a Duke in Ten Days, too! It was really good! Congrats on your J.R. Ward win. I have a copy reserved at my library, but it’s going to be a while. Hope you catch up on some rest! 🙂
I can only imagine how tiring that first week back is. Hope you get some rest and settle into the routine soon. Great win! I’ve won a couple of Goodreads giveaways before but not in a long time now.
You survived the first week! Although it sounds utterly exhausting. As least you already know your students and everyone already has that comfort level in place. That has to help. I hope this week isn’t *quite* as exhausting. And you’re actually able to get some reading done.
Definitely making grabby hands at the new Meghan March book that’s out. Ooh, and Sylvia Day! Here’s to hoping you continue to get back into the groove of things and that this week treats you well!
Sam! Thanks for featuring my post!
I’m still jealous of you getting the summer off, but maybe I shouldn’t be because I don’t think I can handle teenagers! I hear you about sleeping early! I do that all the time now just because work is hectic these days!
