Today is Sunday time to look back in the rearview mirror and talk about my week . I am linking up to the Sunday Post hosted for years by Kimberly@caffeinatedreviewer .
In my private life
Happy Sunday!
There was no Sunday post last weekend as I was away so it’s time to catch up!
Work is still extremely busy, making blogging a challenge.
I also have few time to read and it’s a conundrum for a book blogger! I need something to post and if I don’t read a lot I can’t write reviews either…maybe I will repost old favorites, who knows?
Work aside, the “news of the week” is that we met our son’s girlfriend.
We didn’t even know that he had a girlfriend until Thursday night when he asked me if he could invite her to spend the night on Friday…
He also told me that he asked me first because “you won’t ask a lot of questions or tease me like dad will” LOL
My husband was miffed when he learned that.
Oh well, I guess mom is always your mommy whatever you age.
And another good news is that we decided to extend our stay in London in November my daughter and I. She won’t have classes these days so we booked two more days. Yay!
Now as usual I am sharing some reels, the first one is with my French accent (even if I am Belgian) #sorrynotsorry
And the second is about a grocery shopping trip…
On the blog last week (s): click on the graphic to read the post
In two weeks I only published three reviews but all these books are good and two will be on my “top of 2025”.
The first is a spoiler free review of Onyx Storm

The second is about a very good sequel.

And this one is deserving all the hype it gets!

Thanks for reading!
Sophie








Aww that’s cute of him, I hope everyone got along and got a good time!
We did Kristina!
I hope the first meet with your son’s gf went well! That’s a big surprise indeed!
It went mostly well Mogsy LOL
A surprise girlfriend! Boys are something else! Hope you enjoy your extended time in London!
They are Rachel! LOL
How fun that you met the surprise girlfriend, lol. And I’m glad your London vacation is extended!
Me too Tammy!
Had to laugh about meeting the secret GF. I have a friend whose son said she’d never know about a GF until it was time to plan their wedding, lol. Glad you were able to meet your son’s before it got to that stage, Sophie!
When you put it like that Teri… LOL
The secret girlfriend story made me laugh. Hope the visit went well.
It went mostly well Sam
Hooray for your sons girlfriend and an extended stay in London!
Yess!
Well at least what you are reading is very good!

Aww your son is sweet! I think most boys feel that way about mom and dad-I remember my grandpa teasing my brother relentlessly about girls, and know he would tell my mom first so she could tell everyone else to shut up about it! The reels are cute-as always!
That’s cute learning that about your dad LOL
