Happy Sunday everyone!
This post is in my week according to instagram. It's mostly the books I
got but I take random pictures sometimes too. Also, make sure you follow me on instagram, I follow back!
I can't believe this is the week of Christmas! I'll probably take two days off, but I'm not sure yet. One for sure, but I'm not sure about Christmas Eve.
Anyway, here's what I have for this week!
The awesome folks at Scholastic sent Manor of Secrets by Katherine Longshore and Divided We Fall by Trent Reedy. I hadn't heard of either but I know I'm excited to read Manor of Secrets. We'll see about Divided We Fall, maybe it'll surprise me and I'll love it!
I got Birthmarked by Caragh M. O'Brien from paperbackswap. This has been on my WL on there for so long I forgot about it. It's not a series I have seen much in the blogosphere but it sounds great!
I got Echo in Time by C.J. Hill from Harper. I'm on the blog tour and will be reviewing it Friday. I loved the first book!
In my package of Christmas presents I ordered I finally got Allegiant and Curtsies & Conspiracies. And yes, I did buy them, but I bought them WITH the Christmas presents, so that just makes it another present, right?
I got some great cards this week, unfortunately I didn't take pics of them all, but I did take a picture of this one. I actually read Iron Night the day before I received this Christmas card from ML Brennan. She wrote a very sweet message on the back too. I had read and loved Generation V and had her on the blog a couple times this year. :)
That's everything for me! I have a video of my 4 year old singing Puff the Magic Dragon on my instagram feed but I don't know how to bring the video over so you'll have to go over there to see it.
I hope everyone has a wonderful Holiday week!
I am SO jealous about Manor of Secrets and Echo in Time! I love CJ Hill! Merry Christmas and happy reading!
ReplyDeleteI got Manor of Secrets too! I'm so excited for it because I loved her other book, Gilt. I really need to read Insurgent though so I can move on to Allegiant. Enjoy your books! :)

They totally count as presents!! You have to treat yourself this time of year too, right? I'm hoping to post as much as I can this week since I haven't been able to do much recently, but we'll see how it goes. :)

Now that cover for Birthmarked is so pretty. I haven't seen it before. I'm so happy that you've got Allegiant. I still haven't read mine so I hope we'll get to read them soon. Great haul, Candace :)
