Sunday Post #136

The Sunday Post is a weekly meme hosted here @ Caffeinated Book Reviewer (image above belongs to @ Caffeinated Book Reviewer). It’s a chance to share news ~ A post to recap the past week on your blog and showcase books and things we have received. Share news about what is coming up on our blog for the week ahead. 

I am also linking The Sunday Salon hosted by Deb Nance of Readerbuzz where bloggers discuss what they are reading and other bookish topics.



Life

I luckily tested negative this week, so I could go back to work on Tuesday. Never been so happy about a negative result!



Blog and books



I finished Of Mice and Men this weekend. It was a fascinating book, even though it was rather short I felt got to know to charachters well. It's rare a book almost makes me cry but my eyes watered at the end. Can't recommend this one enough! I'm hoping to read more Steinbeck soon.
That said the book is dated and does contain racist comments and words, which did make me uncomfortable at times.


Movies and TV Shows




I watched BlacKkKlansman yesterday and was blown away by this film. It's an important film that should have gotten more awards. It's so frustrating and downright scary that such people/groups still exist today. It's one of the best films I have seen so far this year.


What did you watch or read recently?

As always please leave some recommendations on what I should read or watch next! 

If you enjoyed this review, please follow me on Bloglovin'TwitterInstagram, TVShowTime and Goodreads! I would really appreciate it!


Have a wonderful day everyone!
