Well the week after Christmas wasn't all that exciting. Work has now taken a turning point of being uber stressful since my company was bought out by another. Every day I am worried they might not want to keep me when the new company "reevaluates." It's a wait and see game and in the meantime I am constantly applying for new jobs and getting no bites. Ugh.
But I got a surprise book in the mail, bought another, and then a delayed Christmas gift from my mom came, so it wasn't too bad of a week! And my cold is nearly gone too, so double yay!
Here's what I bought:
Meddling Kids by Edgar Cantero--finally bought this one since I had an Amazon Gift card from Christmas! Now it's trying to find the time to read it! LOL.
From the publisher for review I received:
Bloodleaf by Crystal Smith (ARC)--it came in its own little foldy box with an enamel pin!! I was so excited to see this one in the mail pile!!
Then I also received one of my preorder gifts already:
Character cards from Evelyn Skye's Circle of Shadows. I'm reading this one now and so far feel only so-so, but I am trying to see it through to the end!
And then lastly, one of my Christmas gifts had been backordered apparently. So happy that it arrived! When I saw it online I had to add it to my list because it was a piece I NEEDED!!
It's a Jim Shore piece with BELLE READING A BOOK with the villainous sheep surrounding her! Lol. It's a mostly all white piece with the book being the only focal point of color, but I thought it was pretty and I liked it! A better size compared to the bookend piece that I had as my Belle reading a book statue! LOL.
And that was my haul this week! So not too shabby! Mount TBR didn't topple over with these two extras! What all did you get this week?
