This was another stressful week. The interview I ended up having on Thursday was a bomb, the position had already been filled. So that was a bummer. I had another one call me and I returned the call and left a voicemail and didn't hear back from them the next day, so I'm trying not to turn to dark thoughts about what that could mean. I've another interview on Monday, but was asked to dress "business professional" which already worries me as my clothes are probably more along the lines of business casual, but still nice. The last time another company talked to me about what they considered "professional" it was all skirts and dresses or slacks...which I've black pants but they are not what you would call "slacks." So I'll give it a try with what I've got and still look decent enough and see how it goes.
Book week wise this week wasn't too bad! I added again to my Caraval collection! Yeah, I know. I went on a binge awhile back and now they all seem to be trickling in! Lol. I think I'm just waiting on 2 more that are coming from other countries...
Here's what I bought:
Rules for Vanishing by Kate Alice Marshall
The Tenth Girl by Sara Faring
Archangel's War by Nalini Singh--I am sooo behind in this series, but I still buy them as they release! Lol.
Capturing the Devil by Kerri Maniscalco--since Kerri canceled her tour, I decided to order a book from her store so I can have a signed copy! I'll have two in the long run, but once my preorder gift comes along, they'll be different covers! :D
And then for the Caraval collection....
Caraval by Stephanie Garber--the Lithuanian edition!
Legendary by Stephanie Garber--the Dutch edition!
