This week was more focused on making some crafts then anything else which I find to be the best thing ever.
I was able to make a baby blanket, a hair scrunchie and a little basket/pouch.
I listened to a Novella called The Yellow Wallpaper by Charlotte Perkins Gilman and this is what I thought about it.
It was an easy listen.It is about a woman who moves to the country with her husband, child, and housekeeper. She is put in a room with yellow wallpaper and doesn't leave the room much but is convinced that a woman is living in the wallpaper. Is there? You will have to read and find out.The wallpaper changes with the light and is something to uphold.
I read a junior fiction book called Harriet the Spy, Double Agent by Maya Gold and this is what I thought of it.
This book was super cute. It is about Harriet the Spy, and the new girl Annie who moves in across the street with her Aunt and Uncle and starts at Harriet's school mid-year.Being the spy that Harriet is, she follows Annie around to try to figure out why Annie is staying with her Aunt and Uncle. Annie goes and visits with an older gentleman and Harriet isn't sure who he is and knows that Annie is too young to have a boyfriend but isn't sure what to think.Annie finds out that Harriet is spying on her and gets mad and won't tell her what is going on. Harriet gets scared and thinks that Annie is getting kidnapped when Annie goes off with the older gentleman so she tells Annie's Aunt and Uncle who call the police.As it turns out, Annie was seeing her father. Annie wasn't supposed to see her father until her parent's divorce was finalized which is why she was currently living with her Aunt and Uncle. Harriet got humbled and found out the hard way that not everything is what it looks like in the end.
I am happy that I took the time to read something this week and to give my wrists a rest and feed my mind with some books!
All in all, I think that I had a wonderful week of crafts, audiobooks, and books, which is what one should do, and I feel happy about it, which is also great.
I also created a Libib account and put all my books into my library. It was a task to do, and I am very privileged to have a friend who was willing and happy to help me do this. By putting my books into Libib I was able to really organize my shelves in a way that I want them to look, and they are more organized. I was also able to get rid of a few books as well which I will be giving to a mini library, the next time that I can get to one!
Happy reading my friends and we will see you all next week!
