This was kind of a mundane week. I've been bouncing off the walls as I'm getting closer and closer to my Disney trip!! Today marks ONE WEEK!! That I also had a book signing last night also was a nice highlight! Though I find it ironic that the annual author events that are happening within the vicinity of my state are actually happening next weekend--when I'm getting ready to go to Florida OR when I am just getting back from Florida and would have no time to get there. le sigh. But I'll be in Florida so I'm going to be having a good time anyway! But I just found it horribly ironic that those events just so happen to fall when they do! Lol.
Anyway, here's what I bought this week:
Grim Lovelies by Megan Shepherd--keeper copy!
Kill the Queen by Jennifer Estep--keeper copy!
Shadow of the Fox by Julie Kagawa--keeper copy! FINALLY! It took me 3 times to get this one undamaged! Amazon kept sending me on with folded over pages, like that's acceptable or something! Grrr.
Lost Sisters by Holly Black
Broken Things by Lauren Olver--keeper copy! SIGNED! Lauren came back to St. Louis...again! It had to be the third year in a row and I was SHOCKED! But also super happy to get my latest book signed!
The Extinction Trials by S.M. Wilson--I had heard good things about this one so I finally ordered a copy! Took quite awhile to get here for whatever reason. I honestly don't know where it came from, it could've been the UK for all I know! Lol.
And that was my haul this week! Sadly no other special little extras, but I was happy to finally get my keeper copy of Shadow of the Fox after all the pain of receiving damaged copy after damaged copy! How was your week? Get anything good?
I guess third times a charm? Glad you finally got your book unharmed. I love signings, and Oliver is a fave of mine. Looks like she wrote a nice, long message too.
ReplyDeleteLooks like a good week!
ReplyDeleteKill the Queen was amazing. I am loving your haul Jessica. Enjoy!

Kill the Queen looks awesome- I think I need that series. And yay for Extinction Trials! I have Broken Things to read too and am kinda looking forward!
ReplyDeleteHave fun in Florida!
I got a copy of Kill the Queen this week too! And I'm hoping to get approved for a listening copy of the Shadow of the Fox audiobook, that one looks really good!

Some great looking books. I see you are heading to my neck of the woods. Florida is expecting some bad weather, so I hope that passes before you get here. Have a safe and happy trip.

Ooh I'm really excited for Broken Things. I love Lauren Oliver's writing so so much, and it's so nice that she wrote a message for you inside!!! I also really need the Holly Black novella, which I had no idea was a thing until recently.
ReplyDeleteAwesome haul! I've really been wanting to read Broken Things and Shadow of the Fox!
