I got a lot of books over the past two weeks. My shelves are kinda groaning. But most of these are ones I have really been looking forward to. Which makes this week super-special…
- The Thief by Megan Whalen Turner – Can’t wait to read this one – apparently it is amazing x1000!
- Seven Sorcerers by Caro King
- Shadows by Amy Meredith
- Prom Nights from Hell (Anthology)
- Lament by Maggie Stiefvater – Maggie! I loved Shiver and am hoping this will be just as awesome. (despite the icky cover)
- Last Chance by Sarah Dessen
- The Glass Demon by Helen Grant – All I really know about this book is that it got great reviews and has a lot of German in it. Good, yah?
- Unholy Ghosts by Stacia Kane – Check out Fiction Vixen’s great review of this one!
- The Short Second Life of Bree Tanner by Stephenie Meyer
- Rules of Attraction by Simone Elkeles – Even those I adored (but didn’t love) Perfect Chemistry, I am ludicrously excited about this one! Eep!
- The Silver Child by Cliff McNish
- The Hunger Games by Suzanne Collins – Look at the pretty US cover! It’s so shiny and not at all creepy (*cough* UK *cough*)/
- A Touch of Dead by Charlaine Harris
- Burned by P.C. and Kristin Cast
- The Sky is Everywhere by Jandy Nelson – This book has amazing binding. Seriously. I hadn’t been convinced by the summary, but the style of the whole book makes it worth every cent.
That’s all! Pretty shiny, no? I have a feeling my IMM will be significantly smaller next week after this haul!

I love Sarah Dessen’s books!And their covers are pure art!
That is one amazing week! I’m not sure which to comment on first, but I will say that I love Bree Tanner and The Hunger Games, and that The Sky is Everywhere does indeed beat every other book on looks alone.
Now for the difficult question: which will you read first?
Enjoy!
That is a great haul!
Just finished Bree Tanner. Hope you enjoy! x
Great mailbox! So many excellent books. I just read The Thief again and found it just as good as I remembered. Happy reading!
I have had The Seven Sorcerers on my wishlist for what seems like forever! Since I will be buying it through the book depository I have been holding off since I am trying to not put more money on my credit cards. I will be looking forward to your review!
The Hunger Games is absolutely brilliant. If you haven’t read it already, read it first. It’s not going to disappoint.
Oooh, Lament! Heard really good things about it! And *gasp* Glimmerglass (how much do I love saying that title?).
Awesome books this week. =)
Amazing books! The sky is everywhere is gorgeous isn’t it? I’ve got a few of these on my shelves too, hope you enjoy!
@Jenny – lol I am having trouble choosing! But I feel like I should reread Eclipse before I start Bree Tanner…
@Cat – Seven Sorcerers is BRILLIANT! I mean, seriously. I haven’t enjoyed a universe this much, since, I don’t know… Harry Potter? Seriously.
@Rhiana – The Sky is everywhere (at least the UK edition) is seriously amazing. And I am saying this before I start it!
Awesome books this week! I got TSIE too and isn’t it luuuuuhhhhvllleey? I haven’t read the Hunger Games yet but want to 🙂
Great week! I have an award for you!
