Weekly Recap: 1/22 - 1/28



Tracy's Happenings Off the Blog

This week's recap is going to be short because I'm really, really exhausted and there's a new BBC show waiting on my TV! This week was largely recovering from ALA, which was a lot of fun, but very hectic. I spent the first few days of the week unpacking books and purging my shelves of older things I'll never read. I still don't have enough room, but I'm planning on adding a couple new shelves soon! Several of the friends MC and I were with at ALA are already planning to go to ALA in Chicago this summer, but I'm not anticipating going to that one. Thankfully I think I have plenty to read for awhile! This week I also started Blogilates on the suggestion of Nick from Nick & Nereyda's Infinite Booklist. I'm currently regretting my decision, but I'm hoping it will pay off! Currently I'm watching And Then There Were None, which I spotted at Best Buy today and picked up with a savings code that was about to expire. I'm off to find out what happens!

MC's Happenings Off the Blog

Hi everyone! Tracy and I are back from ALA! We met for the first time in person and it was awesome! ALA was absolutely amazing. It was so much fun hanging out with everyone and I have to say that being able to meet Tracy was one of the highlights of my trip. I loved seeing everyone else too, but I had met them all before. While ALA itself was great, it was a pretty rough weekend to be in Atlanta. The weather was awful, and between the Women's March and the playoff game at the Georgia Dome, traffic was horrible. And I came home from ALA and promptly got sick, so I missed a bunch of work this week. But all in all, it was a great experience and I hope that I can make it to another convention soon. I love surrounding myself with books, but the best part is always getting to hang out with my friends. Check out the pictures of what my ARC shelf looks like now! I can't wait to get reading!
