What a week! I sure I'm glad is almost over (I just have to survive today :) I won't bore you with the details, but lets say it involves a flat tire while going home at rush hour on 295, being stuck in traffic due to the Grand Prix (in Baltimore this weekend), an infection and an adverse reaction to the antibiotics to cure said infection. Anyway! It was also my birthday and I had a good time that day.
I didn't buy a lot of books this week because I'm planning on attending the Baltimore Book Festival (September 28-30) and the National Book Festival (in DC, September 22-23) and I need to save my money for that.
Library
The Calling by Kelley Armstrong - I love Ms. Armstrong's Darkest Powers series and really enjoy The Gathering, can't wait to listen to this book :)
Bitterblue by Kristin Cashore - This books needs no introduction or explanation, right?
Keep Holding On by Susane Colasanti - Looks like a romantic sort of book...
Purchased (or Free) for Kindle
Wings of Shadow by Anna Kyss - I believe this book was free for Kindle, I just fell in love with the cover.
Trouble in Mudbug by Jana DeLeon - This book sounds like so much fun!
Inbetween by Tara A. Fuller - I've heard good things about this one.
Purchased (Physical Books)
Foretold: 14 Tales of Prophecy and Prediction edited by Carrie Ryan - This is an anthology from fabulous authors, like Richelle Meade, Lisa McMann, Laini Taylor, Meg Cabot and more. Is bound to be amazing!
Enchanted by Alethea Kontis - Can't resist a fairy tale re-telling or that beautiful cover.
I also received a beautiful Vera Bradley messenger bag and matching lunch box from hubby and kids.

I really do want to read Bitterblue - but I think it will have to be a library job, as I've not heard the best reviews for it! Inbetween is supposed to be good, and I'm really excited for Enchanted!
ReplyDeleteLooks like you had a good week!
