Well it's a new year and a new decade! I'm hoping this year will prove to be better than the last one. That year was rough...and I feel like so far that roughness hasn't gone anywhere, but I know (as I write this) it's only been 4 days! Lol. Didn't add too many books to the TBR pile so I'm off to a decent start I suppose, lol! Though I watched one book for months on Amazon and it never went on sale and I can't in good conscience pay full price for a book on Amazon. That's just not right. I don't mind paying full price at author signings, but not with Amazon. Nope.
Here's what I got this week:
Alice's Adventures in Wonderland and Through the Looking Glass by Lewis Caroll & Ill. by Minalima--this was a belated Xmas gift I received and I cannot wait to re-read this beloved tale with all the gorgeous illustrations and interactive elements!
Plus an unpictured B&N Gift card!
Then in trades I received:
A Bad Day for Sunshine by Darynda Jones (ARC)
Happily and Madly by Alexis Bass
THANK YOU Vivien & Nanacosis!
And then I found my self on the Disney Store's website post holidays and saw the sock advent calendar was on sale with another savings on top of it, so I decided I HAD to have it because the socks were so cute!
And that's it for me this week! What all did you get?
I left them in the box for now. I figure maybe next year I'll treat myself to socks for 12 days!
And that's it for me this week! What all did you get?
Yay for B&N gift cards, I received one for Christmas myself and I am already daydreaming of which books to buy :) Hope you enjoy your new reads!

Oh I want the Darynda Jones one! Happy reading!
ReplyDeleteA sock advent calendar is very cool. I would be there for knee socks. I struggle with paying full price for anything. I watch books on Amazon, like people monitor the stock market. That's why my gift cards last forever.
ReplyDeleteHope this is a good year for you! That sock calendar is super cute!
ReplyDeleteHave a great week and happy reading,

Week in Review
Looks like a great haul this week. I know the amazon watching all too well. I hate when a book I want refuses to drop in price. I find after waiting forever I end up caving or not reading it recently. I totally want to read Alice again this year still one of my favorites. I hope you enjoy spending your B&N card. I love the sock idea. You can always refill each each year after you use it next year. Have a great week.
ReplyDeleteHave fun with all your new socks! I wouldn't be able to make it until next year. Haha! I hope you enjoy your new reads!
ReplyDeleteI love that advent calendar, especially since they're all Disney socks!

I do hope that this turns out to be a great year for you! Are you going to the Brigid Kemmerer this week? I plan to be there with my daughter and would love to say hi.
ReplyDeleteEnjoy all of your goodies and have a great week!
Yup, I'll be there! :)
