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 Halloween!!!!!!!
OK I took the plunge and am using the block editor as I am writing this. I am certain I’ll have to work on some adjustments but let’s try it won’t we?
So this week I have been totally absent from the blogging scene as work was insane and at the end of the day, I just wanted to do what a good booknerd wants to do: read and forget the world!
So that’s what I just did and it was much needed!
Now I am on a three weeks holiday and I can’t tell you how I feel relieved!
At work, the last day of course, I had to manage a COVID crisis.
One of my colleagues sent me an email telling me she had had a lunch on Tuseday with her old team to celebrate a colleague’s pension. And on Friday, she got a mail from HR telling her that someone at that lunch was tested COVID positive.
I can’t begin to tell you all about the hour I spent trying to find the right information. Did she have to isolate? Yes. But she came back from lunch and there was another colleague around her!
Did that colleague had to isolate? No as they didn’t see each other without mask for more than 15 minutes and with less than 1,5 meters. But she had to be warned and she will have to be extra careful for the coming days, wearing a mask etc.
Sheesh! One hour to handle that crisis!
Cases are skyrocketing again and homeworking is strongly advised but not mandatory…yet!
But enough about it! I have now three whole weeks ahead of me to rest, go to the cinema and see friends!
Before going to the second part of this post, I’ll try to share my latest reels that I made on Instagram

On the blog this month: wrap up (click on the graphic to read the title)
October was not my best reading month. I have read ten books and have two favorites and one very disappointing one!
My two favorites were Lore & Lust (mini review coming your way) it was a 4,5 stars
And my second favorite was A Shadow in the Ember!
And my big disappointment was These Hollow Vows by Lexi Ryan!
OK that’s it! Now I’ll see what my first post looks like in the classic editor!
Thanks for reading!
Sophie
Woohoo for ASITE making your favorites, it did for me too ♥. And the cover for Lore & Lust is absolutely gorgeous! I need to go hunt for your review!
So envious of your three weeks holiday! Hope you are enjoying every minute! Too bad you have to deal with the Covid crisis just before, though. Hopefully both employees are safe and well. Love your Halloween cosplay!! 🙂
Enjoy your time off! I use block editor now and I like it more than before, it just takes some adjusting!
Good luck with the block editor Sophie! This post looks great, so it seems to be going really well already. Also yay for 3 weeks of holiday, I hope you’ll enjoy! Also, love the Manon cosplay!
I hope the block editor is working well for you. I’m still avoiding it, lol. Love your cosplay video. So much fun!
It’s working Suzanne!
Geez will COVID ever not be an issue?! Enjoy your time off-I am very jealous!
Covid is the gift that just keeps on giving, right? Glad to hear you’re on holiday right now (I am too!)! Let’s both get some rest, Sophie! 🙂
Agreed Rachel!
I love your Halloween reel. Very fun. Enjoy your time off! You deserve it, especially after dealing with that COVID crisis. I hope you get lots of reading done.
Thank you AJ!!
Enjoy your time off, Sophie – you deserve it. Hope you see some awesome movies, read tons of books, and get lots of rest!
Thank you Teri!
Happy Halloween! Hope you had a good one. And good luck with block editor, I couldn’t stand it, lol!
Well Mogsy I got used to it pretty quickly! It’s now my second post and it’s quite intuitive to me.
Whoo! Happy halloween & hopefully a nice vacation Get plenty of rest, and have fun
Omg that’s the worst.. cases are finally coming back down here- though I wouldn’t hold my breath, people are stupid, it can go back up (especially with halloween.. for sure people wouldnt had listened & threw parties..)
That’s a great news that cases are going back down!
Happy Halloween! And 3 weeks? Ooh that’s awesome. 🙂
I love that reel. Well done 🙂
Thank you Greg!
I’m sorry you had to go through that Covid experience at work. Stay safe and have a good week
Thank you Tammy!
Well, that was a stressful last day of work. Our numbers are trending down in NJ. I am surprised to hear yours are up. Hope you enjoy your three weeks off. Love the cosplay!
Oooh I hope ours will trend down too!
I hope you are adapting to the block editor, I do like using it on certain posts. It does have a cleaner interface, I just wished it worked better with my theme so that all my posts could work with it. But I hope that it ends up being a success for you.
So far so good Renee! I only have problems with widgets and had to disable two.
You are brave! I do not want to try the block editor. I am so excited you have a 3 week break now.
It’s not so difficult Anne!
The post looks great and I LOVE your Instagram reels!
Thank you Jacquie!!
