1st I have to say , look at the awesome new IMM image Vintage Bookworm Designs found for me! ( If I had a mail slot like that it would be me, freaking out the UPS man >.< ) On that note, Amanda at Vintage bookworm designs also redid my whole blog design! I love it! - What are your thoughts? :)
Now, Onto what I snagged up this week!
Purchased
Now.. I was supposed to be on a book buying ban.. BUT I saw this at Walmart and it said " Only sold at Walmart" Plus it was cheap :) So.. I talked my boyfriend into buying it..
therefor I technically did not break my ban hahah.
Gifted
Katie- over at Katie's Book Blog was super awesome and sent these to me! Needless to say I have been waiting Forever to read A million suns! and Forbidden looks great as well !
Won
The author : Lisa Desrochers was having a twitter contest and I was lucky enough to snag this awesomeness! She must have guessed I love swag cause she sent some awesome signed bookmarks as well! Now, I haven't read the 1st book, But I managed to find a copy at library and will be flipping through its pages soon!
YAY :) my Goodies from Cate Masters got here way sooner than expected! Won though an awesome blog hop! Can't wait to read!
She also sent a beautiful bookmark! AND look! adorable polar bears! >.<

DeleteOoooh, there were some awesome things in your mailbox this week! And how clever to talk your boyfriend into buying you books for sale. I've been happy without one at the moment, but I think the whole book-buying thing kind of changed my view on that. I might need a boyfriend now :D:D
ReplyDeleteAnd how cool, you got your first book from a publisher! I haven't read that one yet, but I'm very much looking forward to your review.
If you want to, feel free to check out my IMM for this week over here. Hope you're having a wonderful weekend!
haha it was a rare moment in time - mostly he hates my books - since he is the one that has to carry them everytime we move! lol
DeleteI read Glow before it came out and it was really really good. I can't wait for the second one. Here's my IMM!

I did request - But I had already had slight contact with this person before I started blogging, so that made it easier :)
DeleteHope all the new books help you feel better. I've been waiting for a bit of a break in my library holds to see if A Million Suns in either system.
ReplyDeleteI am feeling better! maybe Its just a coincidence lol hope you are able to Find AMS soon!
DeleteGreat haul and congrats on your first publisher sent book!! I've received a few though I didn't actually request them, they either sent me a invite or I won them through Goodreads.
