Weekly Round-Up: Busy and stressful

I'm so sorry everyone!! I've been terrible at blog hopping and replying to comments this week, and I didn't manage to post the discussion/fun posts I was planning to post. The results came in from the poll on Twitter, but I'm not sure when I'll be able to actually follow through on them.   

I wanna break up the review overload my blog's getting 😊 So what post would you like to see soon?

This week's been stressful and busy. I had school to do yesterday, as well, and a ton of blog and email catching up. My cousins are down for a holiday WHICH IS AWESOME, but it also means that my blogging suffers a bit. Sorry peeps :(  

There have also been a few stressful experiences I've had to endure this week and I spent most of Friday an absolute wreck. I really hope this week will be better - and that I get to read and write a lot more.   

Posts of the week:

Book Review: SCARLET

Waiting on Wednesday #49

The Blog Squad: Part 24

I've literally just started The Empty Grave, which I'm reading for a blog tour. And so far I'm not particularly enjoying Canary Club or Crazy House :(  

I didn't request Dark Carousel or The Witchwood Crown (and probably wouldn't have, given the chance) but they just arrived on my doorstep and I hope I like them when I get to read them.

I did request Wayfarer, and I look forward to reading that :) 

I won a copy of If Birds Fly Back from Pan Macmillan SA and it looks so cute and fun. Can't wait to read it :)

I've decided to start this new feature on my Weekly Round-Up where I share news from the entertainment industry that has transpired in the past week. I might occasionally mention bookish news, but it'll mainly be about film and celebs since I don't get to talk about them much on my blog and they're one of my main interests.  

(And don't worry, the Kardashians will never feature ;)  

- Micheal Fassbender and Alicia Vikander are engaged! 

This couple have acted in a number of films together and are so cute - onscreen and off. I love their chemistry (it's gooooooorgeous) and I'm so excited that they're finally tying the knot!!

- Leonardo DiCaprio as the Joker? 

There's a Joker movie in the works and apparently they want to go with a new actor for the title role. Leonardo DiCaprio has been rumoured for the part, but Jared Leto (who portrayed the character in Suicide Squad)  is against the idea and "confused" with the producer's decision to not have him continue to play the character.

I personally think DiCaprio will be great, but it's all conjecture for now.   

- New posters for Thor; Ragnorak have been revealed!

Loki. That's all I can say.  

- Exclusive look at Alicia Vikander as Lara Croft in the upcoming Tomb Raider reboot

I never saw the original Tomb Raider starring Angelina Jolie, but I'm a big fan of Vikander so I'll definitely be watching this one.  

- Nikki Reed and Ian Somerhalder make first red carpet appearance since the birth of their first child

Such a stunning couple.

-  A Look inside The Battle of the Sexes

Starring Steve Carell and Emma Stone in this biopic about the life of tennis champ Billie Jean King, this film has been very well received so far. 

And that's enough for now! Hope you liked the new feature :) 

Hope you had a good week? Did you get any awesome new books?
