Slow week here for books. I didn't make it to Goodwill and I've pretty much bought out Walmart of their new releases :) There's always next week though!

Losing Clementine by Ashley Ream - Huge thanks to Girls Just Reading! I'm so excited to read this!

The Snow Child by Eowyn Ivey - Massive thanks to Kimberly at Tidbits From A Mom! I'd been trying to get my hands on this one forever. Doesn't this cover just fascinate you?

A Teeny Bit of Trouble by Michael Lee West - Big, big thanks to Lori Wilde for the awesome giveaway hosted on her blog last week. Isn't this cover adorable? 

Slow week for me this week, but seeing as how I'm doing a read-a-thon I think that is a good thing. I really need to catch up on my reading and the more books that come in, the further behind I get. Not that I mind, there's no such thing as too many books!

What came for you this week? Leave me a link in the comments and I'll be sure to stop by!

That's it for me, what an amazing week for books! I couldn't believe it when I walked up to the husband in Barnes & Noble with that second set of books in my hand and all I got was one raised eyebrow. Not one word even though I have officially run out of room in my library or "office" as the children refer to it. Even after nailing a few more shelves to my wall above my desk I have no room. Looks like it will be time for another book shelf tour :) Which do you guys prefer: a picture bookshelf tour or video? I prefer pictures since I am camera shy but if everyone really wants a video I might be able to suck it up and do one :)
