Well, last Sunday was Canada Day and I didn't feel like sitting inside blogging, so I skipped my StS post. :P So, here's what I got over the past two weeks!
For Review:
Auracle by Gina Rosati (from Raincoast Books)
Promised (Birthmarked #3) by Caragh M. O'Brien (from Raincoast Books)
Shadowborn (Lila Gray #2) by Jocelyn Adams (from J. Taylor Publishing)
Pledged (Soul Wars Saga #1) by Gwynneth White (from Swallow Press)
Defiance (Defiance #1) by C. J. Redwine (from Edelweiss and the publisher)
I'm so excited for all of these!!! :D I already read, devoured, and loved Promised, and I can't wait to read the rest! :D I hadn't heard of Pledged until I was emailed about it's blog tour, but it sounds really interesting, so I'm looking forward to it. Auracle, and Defiance were both ones on my Books I Can't Wait to Read lists, so of course I squealed when I got them (Promised too! haha), and Shadowborn is a sequel I've been looking forward to...so it was definitely an awesome couple of weeks for review titles. :D

Sent by Chrystal at Snowdrop Dreams of Books:
Embers and Echoes (Wildefire #2) by Karsten Knight
The Birth of Jaiden by Jennifer Malone Wright
Chrystal hadn't read Wildefire yet, so she was awesome enough to send me her copy of its sequel, Ember and Echoes! :D She also sent along a copy of The Birth of Jaiden, which I hadn't heard of, so I'll have to check it out. :D Thank you so much, Chrystal! :D I can't wait to read Embers and Echoes especially!!! :D
-------------------------------------------------------------
Won:
For Darkness Shows the Stars by Diana Peterfreund (won from Mary at Bookhounds)
I've been wanting to read this one for forever, so when I won a book of my choice for under $15 from Mary at Bookhounds, I picked this one!!! :D I'm seriously so excited to start it. I'm going to try and squeeze it in between a couple review titles. :D
-------------------------------------------------------------
Bought:
Something Like Normal by Trish Doller (Book Depository)
This Dark Endeavor (The Apprenticeship of Victor Frankenstein #1) by Kenneth Oppel (Wal-mart)
The Thirteen by Susie Moloney (Wal-mart)
Choker by Elizabeth Mills (Chapters)
The Espressologist by Kristina Springer (Chapters)
My pre-order of Something Like Normal came, and I'm really excited for it! :D The other four were all books that I spotted while browsing and just couldn't resist. I'm especially excited for This Dark Endeavor, as a lot of you mentioned Kenneth Oppel as one of your favourite Canadian authors during the Canada Day Hop. :D
-------------------------------------------------------------
So, those are the awesome titles I've gotten in the last two weeks! What have you gotten?

Oh I'm glad the parcel arrived safely. :) Enjoy!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Chrystal! :D
DeleteFantastic haul! I got For Darkness Shows the Stars last week and I can't wait to start it! Also, I'm so jealous of Auracle and Something Like Normal! It sounds AMAZING! I hope you enjoy!
ReplyDeleteCheck out my Stacking the Shelves!
Thanks, Eileen! I know, I'm so excited for it too! :D Thanks, I hope so too! :D And they definitely do sound amazing. Thanks for commenting.
DeleteI'll be sure to check it out. :)
I can't wait to check out Auracle... it will definitely be in my next 5 books to read, I think.
ReplyDeleteI got Something Like Normal as well, although I think I forgot to put it in my post last time and again this time. =b I couldn't wait to check it out and now I'm almost hesitating because I need to be in the right mood for it, I think.
I'm going to try and read it soon too. :D Hopefully it's as amazing as it sounds. :D
DeleteI've done that before. :P It's easy to miss a book. haha I think you're right. It seems like a book that will really depend on your mood.
You got such awesome books! I can't wait to read Defiance, it looks great, and I hope you enjoy Choker, I really liked it :-)
ReplyDeleteHappy Reading,
