As some of you may know, Tuesday was my birthday! What better gifts can a girl like me get for her birthday but books? There is nothing better. Well, accept maybe cash lol. Even then I would still use the cash to buy books. The hubby sent me to Barnes & Noble for my bday to go crazy on books. I actually won an arc of Shatter Me Tuesday morning, but the other day when I was at Target I saw this gorgeous cover staring at me, daring me to buy it. So what else could I do? It was calling my name. So I'm not sure what I am going to do with the ARC when it comes, maybe a giveaway???
Anyway, I spent a good half an hour at Barnes & Noble walking back and forth between two aisles deciding on what to get. There were so many good books and I just coudln't decide. Eventually I went with what you see up above. I think I made out well, yes?

This came from Shelf Awareness. My mom actually received a copy of this too and she has already read it. She said it was awesome, so hopefully I will read it soon!
Received this from Random House. It looks very, very good but also super depressing.
I won these next three books from The British Babes Book Brigade. The first one especially looks like a lot of fun!
Won this gorgeous hardcover from Stephanie at Five Alarm Book Reviews. It looks absolutely amazing and I can't wait to start on it. I started reading the first page when it arrived in the mail today and had to for myself to stop. It grabs your attention from the first line. Seriously, it was hard to stop! Thank you, Stephanie!!!
Won these two books from Abigail at All Things Urban Fantasy. Not only did the author sign them both (awesome!!) but she drew a cute drawing in each one. I have already started on Between the Sea and Sky :) Thank you Abigail and Jaclyn Dolamore!
I actually won two ARCs of this book. One from Goodreads, and one from LibraryThing. I completely forgot I had signed up on both and when I had got the second winning email saying I won a second copy I felt like an idiot. I don't like receiving two copies of books for free. I hate knowing that I have an extra copy that won't be read when someone else could be enjoying it too. I was hoping that whoever was in charge of sending these out would catch it and see I had two coming So I may be doing a giveaway for the extra soon :)
I wanted to read this book before I even knew what it was about. I *love* this cover! Thanks to Maryanne at Eve's Fan Garden, I have a gorgeous new hardcover!
I also have a ton of new ebooks to review from NetGalley.com. Too many to post actually, I went a little crazy on the requests lol.
How about you? What came for you this week?

ReplyDeleteSwitched's cover looks gorgeous. You have so many good things here! I'm a little over halfway through How to Save a Life and it's so good- it was hard to stop for a little while and blog. I hope you enjoy your haul!

I don't really have a secret to winning, I just get very lucky. Actually, I am a little OCD when it comes to daily tweets, I do those every morning. The more entries the better your chance. Then again, I have won based on one entry so I honestly don't know lol. I wish I knew what it was because I would totally share the wealth :)
ReplyDeleteAwesome mailbox! Smoke and Bone is fantastic and so is Shatter Me! I really want to read Eve too!

Those are some good purchases!! Happy Belated Birthday! =)
ReplyDeleteLove 'Shatter Me', and 'The Scorpio Races' was amazing, I totally loved it.
Oh geez..........
ReplyDeleteI am seriously jealous. Hahahahaha You have a really great haul for this week!! Very happy for you... WHERE ARE YOU GOING TO START?!?! :-)
No... I haven't read Before I Fall, but I definitely MUST. Did you review it? I really enjoyed Delirium, obviously, and I'm so grateful that Cinder is being so fun this weekend, 'cause I was on a string of misses there for a few books in a row. Ugh.
Daughter of Smoke and Bone is AMAZING! I'm reading it right now and it's probably one of the best books I've read in a while. I suggest reading that one ASAP!
ReplyDeleteGreat books and doubles are great for giveaways so don't fret.
ReplyDeleteI'm looking forward to reading The Scorpio Races. I really loved her Wolves of Mercy Falls trilogy!
