A Good Week in Books (21)


This is actually my 200th blog post! I have a super sweet book giveaway planned that I’ll be announcing in the next few days. I needed some more shelf space at the end of the summer so I pulled some books I have multiple copies of or just don’t think I’ll read again, etc. And I think I’m going to have two winners, so come back and enter it!
But to my week in books, I got some good ones! I definitely went back to another Half Priced Books last Monday (to take advantage of the big Labor Day book sale), and I purchased two books (1 ARC). I won another ARC from an awesome blog. I received a new one from NetGalley. And I found this adorable, little bookstore, to spend some time in after I dropped my dad off in physical therapy. I sort of had 3 hours to waste before I picked him up. And where did I go? A bookstore and a Starbucks, of course. Not a bad 3 hours, I must say. Needless to say, I bought a book and then got into a 30 minute Harry Potter/Team Starkid discussion at Starbucks (where I just so happened to be wearing my Starkid shades!) Potter fans are the best!
I got this one from NetGalley (thank you, Harlequin Teen Ltd.):
 
Dash and Lily’s Book of Dares
by Rachel Cohn and David Levithan (I’ve actually read, reviewed, and loved this one already but now I have an ebook of it and can read it again!)
These are the three books I purchased this week:
 
Secret Letters
by Leah Scheier
Cold Fury by T. M. Goeglein
Grim by Anna Waggener (ARC)
And I won this ARC from TheReadiacs:

Wings of the Wicked
by Courtney Allison Moulton

  1. I am so curious about Grim. I pretty much literally know nothing about it, but the cover makes me think of the Blink episode of Doctor Who...
