Ooh, I had a fantasticly bookish week! Went slightly mad in a few charity shops, Foyles and Forbidden Planet - not to mention there were some lovely goodies at the Lauren Oliver event (signed posters! postcards! books!). Alas, the photos I took on my phone are refusing to transfer, so I can only give you a shot of the books I took with me. (Except, I just realised I do have Pretty Little Liars with me but promptly forgot about it for photo time... oops).
- Soulless by Gail Carriger - I've already started this one. Love Gail's writing style.
- Killbox by Ann Aguirre
- Archangel by Sharon Shinn - Forbidden Planet finally got this back in stock! I've been waiting about, oh, a year for it... but yay!
- Delirium and Before I Fall by Lauren Oliver - Shall be giving out some signed goodies/books by Lauren later in May.
- Cursed by David Wellington
- Impossible by Nancy Werlin - This was such a great Oxfam Books find. Looks gorgeous and romantic - can't wait to read it.
- Enchanted Ivy by Sarah Beth Durst - Featured this as a WoW months and months ago and spotting it at Foyles felt a bit like fate. Wish I had a photo of this one, as the US Hardcover is lovely.
- Pretty Little Liars by Sara Shepard
Absolutely loved Delirium! And you're right, they are very pretty books. It's so hard these days not to judge a book by it's cover. I always catch myself out doing it.
ReplyDeleteI really want to read Delirium! It looks so good! I also really want Enchanted Ivy, that looks awesome too :D Happy reading!

I both watch and read Pretty Little Lias but, it's very good. Love the books and the show.
ReplyDeleteYou're complrely right about new books :)
ReplyDeleteLooks like you got some great books this week!
Some great books there - and I agree with the new books feeling. I didn't buy any books this week and looking at everyone's haul this week I wish I had! Still, there's always next week... :)
ReplyDeleteMan, I do love that new book feeling. Soulless was a lot of fun, so I hope you enjoy it!
ReplyDeleteWow. You had an amazing book week! I loved Delirium and can't wait to read Soulless! I hope you love them all! You can stop over and check out my mailbox here: http://blog.juliealindsey.com/
ReplyDeleteGreat books this week! I love the Gail Carriger series. Impossible is such an awesome book one of my favourites of last year.
ReplyDeleteHappy reading.

Lauren Oliver's books are amazing. I loved both of them.
ReplyDeleteI've been wanting Enchanted Ivy for ages - I hope you enjoy it, and the rest of your books!

I just bought myself Impossible in January after having really liked Extraordinary by Nancy Werlin. I haven't gotten to read it yet because I haven't been in the mood for contemporary paranormal yet. I'm in a folktale/fantasy world sort of phase. ;)
ReplyDeleteWhat a set of books! I love Lauren Oliver. I really want to read Gail Carriger's books.
ReplyDeleteNew follower!

I sincerely hope you like Soulless. If you don't, I will take all the blame. Promise.
ReplyDeleteFab week, hope you like 'em all. And hope work schedules let you read some!
I love your last statement so much : new books make me smile too, even on the grayest days!
ReplyDeleteI really enjoyed Soulless, and Enchanted Ivy really is pretty, though I have yet to read it!
