The Sunday Post is a weekly meme hosted by Caffeinated Book Reviewer. This is a post to recap the past week on your blog, tell everyone about books and things you can showcase and share news for the upcoming week. Remember to link your post and to visit others who have linked up.
This week’s predominant event in my little corner of the world was the SA Local Government Elections 2016. It is a historic time in South Africa, leaving the ANC bruised and the DA galvanized.

Gosh no. That’s too much for this over-occupied mind. I just shortened it to:
Ten Books I bought right this second. And I really did. I can show you the receipts!
I’m not being very successful with Cover Characteristics lately… I really enjoy doing it and had lots of fun joining Sheldon Cooper this week with Fun with flags, but with most democratic organisations – you have to give the people what they want. And my Cover Characteristics doesn’t appear to be what the people want. I guess some you win and some you lose!
Fun with Flags
When I posted my Friday Meets post, I was convinced that I will be spending my long-weekend reading. Alas… Halfway through the long-weekend and I’m not even finished with the book I started last weekend.Social obligations you know… Luckily I still have tomorrow and Tuesday. Really do hope to start with Salt to the Sea.

I have also entered for ARC August and I am currently reading two books featured on that challenge.
Received terribly sad news regarding the one book this morning. I am reading Blink Twice for Murder for Afrikaans author Johann Britz. It would have been his first English novel. Unfortunately Johann passed away on Friday night. My deepest condolences to his family and loved ones.

What’s happening this week?
Things are a bit crazy at the moment (more about that later), so I’ve decided I’m really much better off just not doing any planning at all. But promise to keep you posted on what does happen.
Wishing you all a great week ahead and happy reading!
