This has been one crazy week! I am so glad the
weekend is finally here, even though I am sure it will fly by way too fast.
Next weekend I am going to Dragon Con and I couldn’t be more excited. Dragon
Con is hosting quite a few authors each year and this year their guests include
Sara Raasch, the author of Snow Like Ashes. I really hope I’ll get a chance to
meet her. I’ll probably end up rambling more about this topic once I come back
from the con, but until then, here is my book haul for this past week:
Books:
P.S.
I Still Love You by Jenny Han – I read ‘To All The
Boys I’ve Loved Before’ earlier this year and really enjoyed it so I am curious
to see where Lara Jean’s story is going next.
EBooks:
The
Demon in the Wood: A Darkling Prequel Story (The Grisha Trilogy)
– I think out of all the books I got this week, I am most excited about this
novella. I absolutely loved the Darkling in The Grisha Trilogy, and I am beyond
excited to find out the Darkling’s back story. I will read this this weekend as
it is only 67 pages. Cannot wait!
The
Five Stages of Andrew Brawley by Shaun David Hutchinson & Christine Larsen
– To be perfectly honest, I don’t know much about this book except that lots of
people in the bloggerverse love it; so, when I found it on sale earlier this
week I decided to grab it. I’m not sure when I will get a chance to read it,
but hopefully soon.
Remembrance
by Michelle Madow – My friend Eve at FunctioningInsanity read and reviewed this book. She really enjoyed it so I decided to
give it a try. Again, not sure exactly when I’ll get a chance to read it, but
eventually I will.
Books
received for review:
To
Nowhere by C.E. Wilson – The author of this book
contacted me and asked if I’d be interested in reading and reviewing her novel.
The novel has a very unique dystopian concept and I am looking forward to
reading it. She was kind enough to send me a copy of her book and I will read
and post my review sometime in October.
Critical
Hit-On (The Games of Love Book 1) by Deanna Dee
– This was also sent to me by the author in exchange for a review and I’m
looking forward to reading it as well. This is a new adult romance debut and it
sounds absolutely adorable. My review of this book will also be posted sometime
in October.
Library:
Starters
by Lissa Price – This book has been around for a few
years now and it seems to have gotten lots of love; so when I saw the audiobook
available at my local library I thought I’d give it a go and see how I like it.
I hope to get to listen to it in the next couple of weeks.
Tricks
by Ellen Hopkins – This audiobook was also available
at my local library. I’ve had this book on my tbr list for a while now and I am
very happy to finally get to it. The book was originally released in 2009 and
people still seem to be talking about it so it must be really good.
Reviews
posted this week:
Everything
Everything by Nicola Yoon – Last week, I was
lucky enough to receive an ARC for this book from NetGalley. I read it in one
day and absolutely loved it. Please check out my spoiler free review here.
Also, make sure to grab a copy of this book, you won’t regret it. It was a
fantastic read!

OMG first I have to say I am so bummed I never looked into Dragoncon until today because I'm off this weekend and totally would have gone if I'd had time to make arrangments and save some dollars. Next year!
ReplyDeleteYay for new books! Always fun. I read Starters as an ARC back before it came out and I really enjoyed it for sure. I hope you like it and all your new purchases as well.
Hope you'll be able to come to D-con next year. It's super fun :)
