{Sunday Post} - Grieving. . .

Sunday Post is a weekly meme hosted by Kimberly @ Caffeinated Book Reviewer!


Good Morning, Everyone! 


My grandmother passed away yesterday. She had a test positive for the virus and went to the COVID-19 ward of the nursing home on Friday. She had no symptoms at the time. She ate breakfast and lunch and seemed to be alright. Then the nurses found her unresponsive, and her vitals slowly went downhill throughout the day. She died in the early hours on Saturday. She was 80 years old.





 

What Am I Reading?


Before Friday, my week was hectic, and I didn't have time to read anything. My bookmark is still on chapter one of The Obsessed in The Woman Beyond the Attic: The V.C. Andrews Story. I had planned on posting the review on its release day, which is Feb. 1st, but with everything going on, that may not happen. 


I still want to read Victoria Winters by Marilyn Ross (William Ross), the second book in the old Dark Shadows tie-in series. Then I need to read The Bleecker Street Inquiry Agency: To Disguise the Truth by Jen Turano.

What's in the Mail?


Revell sent me the Biblical novel The Prince and the Prodigal by Jill Eileen Smith. I don't remember signing up to review this book. However, according to my emails, I must have requested it.




What's New On The Bookshelf?


New eBooks on my Kindle are The Fountains of Silence by Ruta Sepetys and Worms by James R. Montague.

  1. So sorry for your loss.
    I just finished The Woman Beyond the Attic. It took me a while, I don't read a lot of nonfiction, and I don't think I'm a fan of the author's writing style. Hoping to post my review this week as well.

  3. I'm so sorry to hear of your grandma's passing. My grandpa had almost the same experience earlier this month: tested positive, seemed fine for a few days, and then passed quickly one afternoon. Hugs to you.

  4. My sincere condolences for the loss of your grandmother. It's been a very difficult last two years and we can only hope for better to come. All the best.
