I looove my books this week! I went a bit YA-mad at Foyles as everything was 10% off and it was to be my last trip there for many months. *sigh* Which is probably a good thing, considering this gives them a chance to refresh the stock. *snickers* I also had some great luck at charity shops, so I managed to get a lot of books without feeling guilty over their prices. Which is a lovely thing...
- Dancing with Werewolves by Carole Nelson Douglas
- Dragon Rider by Cornelia Funke
- Coram Boy by Jamila Gavin
- Light Beneath the Ferns by Anne Spollen - Read the 1st paragraph and HAD to buy it - very creepy yet awesome.
- The Fallen 1: The Fallen and Leviathan by Thomas E Sniegoski - Yay! for the lovely new edition!
- The Eternal Kiss (Anthology) by Trisha Telep (Editor)
- The Devil's Kiss by Sarwat Chadda
- Beauty by Robin McKinley - After reading Angie's post about McKinley for Books We Love, I knew I had to give her a read. Might as well start with one of my very favourite tales!
- The Moth Diaries by Rachel Klein
- The Tortilla Curtain by T.C. Boyle
- Angelology by Danielle Trussoni
And a few of these were signed! The Eternal Kiss (won from LE) was sent by the lovely Dame Kaz, who also had Maria V. Snyder sign it. It's a looovely two-for-one and I was very excited when I got it. *pets*
I also picked up Sarwat Chadda's first novel. Luckily, Foyles still had some of his signed editions left from the Summer Scream event!
So... how was your week? ♥
Dude, what a week! The Eternal Kiss and Devil's Kiss are both ace. Kaz's story about Moth in EK is fab! :)
ReplyDeletePoor Foyles... I hope they recover soon ;)
I always, always come by your blog for IMM because it's like book porn for me. hahah! Your blog is probably one of the favourite blog finds I have ever made. Not just because of the awesome UK covers you get but because you give me such great book ideas!
ReplyDeleteCoram Boy sounds so interesting and I think I'll be adding that to my book depo wishlist. I think you're the one who first introduced me to WILDTHORN as well... I know it was a UK blog.
I have only read one Robin McKinley book (The Hero and the Crown) and I loved the writing style. Sadly she's never on my mind when I am in a store!
I keep fingeringingThe Fallen 1 n by Thomas E Sniegoski whenever I go into the bookstore, but I haven't grabbed it yet. I haven't heard anything (good or bad) about it so I was slightly hesitant, but something about it just draws me to it. I'll eventually get it. I'm definitely curious what you think of it.
ReplyDeleteOooh, The Fallen is something I keep eyeing as well.

I am curious how you will like Angelogoly, I hated it. It's just stupid. But the other books look interesting :-)
