What's up Wednesday

Hello readers!

Let's kick it off! What I'm Reading

So much more than last week!
1. I read the third book in the Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants series.
2. I read the ARC of UNBREATHABLE by Hafsah!
3. I'm about to read the ARC of ULTRAVIOLET CATASTROPHE by Jamie Grey!

What I'm Writing

Even though there is still bits and pieces left for DECIDING HIJAB I'm putting it aside finally! I've worked on it for so long. And I finally got a new idea and so I'm working on a new WIP!

What Inspires Me Right Now

My new WIP. All the August Moon prompts.

What Else I've Been Up To

The release date has been revealed. A cover reveal is in place. So is a poetry blogfest and blog tour! You can check out the details in my previous post.

Thank you and love,

P.S. Do you know Casey Ho has a blogilates app?! I just got it! Also, I have a website! http://fidaislaih.wix.com/fislaih
