Happy Sunday! I hope you remembered to set your clocks back a hour. YAY for an extra hour of sleep. Welcome to this week's edition of my weekly round up in the stacks. I am so excited about this week, as I received a book I've been patiently waiting to read since last year, and I picked up a few new reads this.
For Review:
- Days of Blood and Starlight by Laini Taylor, published by Little Brown, to be released on 11/6/12 *I'll be interviewing Laini this week when she's in town for her signing/tour! Don't miss her at Book People!
Bought:
- Keeper of The Lost Cities by Shannon Messenger
- Juliet Immortal by Stacey Jay
- Every Day by David Levithan, signed
- The Crimson Crown by Cinda Williams Chima
- Rivals and Retribution by Shannon Delany
- Covet by Melissa Darnell
- Toothiana, Queen of the Tooth Fairy Armies by William Joyce
I was greeted by a nice surprise when I went to pick up and purchase a copy of Melissa Darnell's COVET last night. I had no idea I was quoted on the inside page of the book, and the back of the cover! I'm looking forward to reading this sequel.
Gifted:
This week I celebrated my birthday (thank you for all the birthday wishes this week from everyone) with these awesome Jace inspired gifts. I have a wonderful friend of mine who likes to treat me with all things related to Jace on my birthday. Who wouldn't love Jace or Jace related items on their birthday right? She surprised me this awesome shirt, along with a matching bracelet that has this quote on it from Hebel Designs. I LOVE these and can't wait to wear them!! Thank you S!!
Thank you to: Little Brown, and S for this week's fabulous goodies! What goodies did you receive this week?
