I am not bothering to take a picture of these but first up are the three books I obtained from my local library this week:
Sex Criminals (Vol. 1): Matt Fraction & Chip Zdarsky - Already read this graphic novel. My review is on Goodreads. Didn't like it and not even worth highlighting as a review on my blog.
Horrorstor: Grady Hendrix- Checked this out once and never got to it. Hopefully will have better luck this time around.
The Kennedy Chronicles: Kennedy - What can I say? I grew up on MTV (when they actually showed music videos).
Next are the books I received from netgalley:
The Well: Catherine Chanter
The Legend of the Light Keeper: Kelly Hall
Conversations with Saint Bernard: Jim Kraus - Look at that dog! I love him. Told you guys I am a sucker for anything with a cute dog on the front.
I picked these up from Amazon:
Quozl: Alan Dean Foster- The world is being taken over by alien rabbits - awesome. This was a daily deal I couldn't resist. And I must add, the other cover Goodreads has is so much better. Check it out!
Night Terrors (Shadow Watch #1): Tim Waggoner - Another daily deal that has been on my radar so I grabbed it before I could regret passing it up. I hate that cover though.
The Collector's Society: Heather Lyons - Last daily deal snatch. Sounded decent enough.
Cage the Dead: Gary F. Vanucci, Queen Mab: Kate Danley and The Last Orphans: N. W. Harris were all grabbed as Kindle freebies.
And finally I managed to get to galleys to some pretty coveted Penguin releases:
Day Shift(Midnight, Texas #2): Charlaine Harris - I really enjoyed the first installment of this series, which is saying a lot because toward the end, Sookie Stackhouse wore me out!
Saint Anything: Sarah Dessen - This will be my first book by her and it isn't my ordinary read, but I have heard great things about her writing and decided to read "out of the box."
Not a bad haul for spending less than $5.00. I love my local library and am always glad for the selection they have.
What did you get this week? Have you read any of these?
Alien rabbits? OK that's a bit different! Nice haul for a good price-there is nothing as good as getting some book bargains! Enjoy your books!
ReplyDeleteHorrostor sounds funny, because IKEA hahah. Also, I have been SO curious about Charlaine Harris's new series, because like you, I am MAD about Sookie. I was so bored by the end, and then full of rage. So I am glad to hear you enjoyed the new series. Is it 452 books like the last one? And Saint Anything sounds pretty good! I almost tried for it on First To Read, but I wanted to save my points ;) And thanks for the tip about the freebies, I just grabbed The Last Orphans! Hope you enjoy all these, and have a wonderful week!

Midnight Texas is a much better series and I have heard it's only supposed to be a trilogy.
DeleteAwesome stack this week! Check out my STS? http://bundles-of-books.blogspot.com/2015/03/stacking-shelves-7.html
ReplyDeleteThe Well looks really good and I hadn't heard of it before. I'll have to check that one out. Thanks for stopping by my blog! :-)
