The Sunday Post is a weekly meme hosted by 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. Share news about what is coming up on our blog for the week ahead.
It has been a slow week. Still busy at work, but I’ve spent my spare time reading a couple of chapters from my current read and mostly playing Clash of Clans. I’m so addicted. You can Google it if you’re not familiar. It’s kind of complicated to explain the specifics. Lol! Though my current read seems interesting, I still feel that my blogging week is not that good. See for yourself. I only have scheduled posts posted this week and I can’t seem to collect my thoughts when I was doing my review of Siege and Storm. Anyway, I’m so excited for Wednesday. Aunt arrived from the US and Mom’s back from her Thailand trip so we’ll have our annual family gathering in Subic, Zambales on Thursday. We’ll be leaving Manila on Wednesday night though to avoid the insufferable traffic of the metro. I’m so excited to be out of the city and see greens and swim to blues finally. There goes my week. How’s yours? 😀

The capital has fallen.
The Darkling rules Ravka from his shadow throne. Now the nation’s fate rests with a broken Sun Summoner, a disgraced tracker, and the shattered remnants of a once-great magical army. Deep in an ancient network of tunnels and caverns, a weakened Alina must submit to the dubious protection of the Apparat and the zealots who worship her as a Saint. Yet her plans lie elsewhere, with the hunt for the elusive firebird and the hope that an outlaw prince still survives. Alina will have to forge new alliances and put aside old rivalries as she and Mal race to find the last of Morozova’s amplifiers. But as she begins to unravel the Darkling’s secrets, she reveals a past that will forever alter her understanding of the bond they share and the power she wields. The firebird is the one thing that stands between Ravka and destruction—and claiming it could cost Alina the very future she’s fighting for.
