I got some fabulous books in the mail this week!!! Check them out:

I only got a few ebooks this week and pre-ordered a boxed set, which I'm happy about. I've got too many books to read as it is. :) I'm really excited about them all. Here they are (from NetGalley & Amazon):

  1. Wow, looks like you had a great book haul this week!
    I really want to get approved for Princess of Thorns, but haven't been yet. :(
    Let me know how it is!

    Here's my Stacking the Shelves
    I picked up a few for the Read-a-thon next week! Can't wait!
    Happy National Read A Book Day! :)

  3. Great review. I love Kasie West, her books never disappoint. I must admit to preferring Pivot Point to Split Second, but I thought they were both really great.

  4. Amazing haul this week, you've got a lot of great looking books. Heir of Fire <3 I can't get enough of that series, no idea how we are expected to wait for the next book. The Melissa Wright books look interesting, I haven't seen those before. I hope you enjoy them all :)

  5. I got Princess of Thorns, Suspicion, and Heir of Fire too. Already read Heir of Fire (it was amazing, but so dark). And I'm really excited about Princess of Thorns. I LOVED Of Beast and Beauty, it was a five star read for me. And Suspicion sounds so good. Have fun reading! ~Pam

  6. Envy by Anna Godbersen
    Thanks :)

  7. For some reason I thought this was middle grade -- the cover, while beautiful, looks more like MG to me. Glad you enjoyed, though :)
    Jen @ YA Romantics

  8. I could kind of see that with the cat on the front, but it definitely is too violent for MG and has older characters. This one reminded me a little of Throne of Glass, but is also very different in its plot. There isn't magic, but it has the darkness/survival feel to the story and Kyra moves like an assassin, although she's a thief. I think you'd like this one, Jen.

  11. I would choose Heir of Fire or The Forever Song. From the comments I am definitely going to have to start The Darkest Minds series in the future though:)

    ReplyDelete
  12. I would choose Between the Spark and the Burn by April Tucholke!


    Also I said in the rafflecopter I replied as Emily @ Falling For YA but apparently I'm actually replying as Emily Siess. My bad.

    ReplyDelete
  13. I would probably pick Siege and Storm or Rebel Spring. Thanks!

    ReplyDelete
  14. Omg you're so right! Haha I do that too, so glad I started VA when all the books were out...or I'd die.

  15. Roxana Zuziac9/7/14, 3:31 AM

    I would choose Scarlet by Marissa Meyer. Thank you for the giveaway! :)

    ReplyDelete
  16. I prefer Pivot Point too, but I loved them both. :) I'm excited for West's next book, but sad that it will be one at a time now. I've been spoiled with two a year from her.

    ReplyDelete
  17. Pivot Point was SO good! Ideally, I'd read Split Second immediately afterwards. I think you'd definitely like them, Dee!

    ReplyDelete
  18. It took forever to get approved!!! I was surprised I finally got it. I hope you do to!

    ReplyDelete
  19. I'm really excited for the Read-a-thon!! I had some fun getting the challenges all ready and I'm curious to see what everyone does and what everyone reads. I'll come check out your stack...

    ReplyDelete
  20. Melissa is awesome! That series is really good too! I'm hoping to read Heir of Fire this week. I told myself I had to finish some other books, so it's kind of my reward for doing so (I really just want to skip to it and not read those other books).

    ReplyDelete
  21. I thought Of Beast and Beauty was such an interesting story and very well written. I'm planning on loving all of these! :D

    ReplyDelete
  22. Isn't the cover awesome?!! It's a NA compilation that's on sale right now and proceeds go to raise funds for literacy. Definitely worth it. :)

    ReplyDelete
  23. I'll come check out your stack, Jillyn...

    ReplyDelete
  24. Evertrue, so I can complete my collection! Or maybe The Treatment by Suzanne Young, so I finish that, haha. Thanks for the giveaway!

    ReplyDelete
  25. I loved that book and really love that whole series!

    ReplyDelete
  26. I've heard such great things of that series and have both World After and Angelfall waiting on my shelf for me.

    ReplyDelete
  27. It is a great series. I'm hoping to get it read this week.

    ReplyDelete
  28. I'm planning on reading the third book in that series this month and looking forward to seeing how it ends.

    ReplyDelete
  29. Lol! I know exactly what you mean! :)

    ReplyDelete
  30. I've heard great things about it too. Hopefully I'll get to it soon.

    ReplyDelete
  31. I loved Scarlet, so great choice even if just for the cover.

    Heir of Fire :D

    ReplyDelete
  42. It's a meme where you link up the books you got each week, sharing them with everyone. I hope that clears that up. :)

    ReplyDelete
  43. Thanks! I hope you like it if you get a chance to read it.

    ReplyDelete

    ReplyDelete
  47. I've got that one to read and it's been high on my list too.

    ReplyDelete
  48. Of course. :) The question was more that I was curious what entrants were wanting. It's kind of interesting to see the trends and to also find new books.

    ReplyDelete
  49. :D cool, no many people know the saga o the author :(

    ReplyDelete
  50. Lis Cárcamo9/8/14, 11:12 AM

    would love to get The Book of Life by Deborah Harkness! I've been wanting to read this
    one for a while!!

    ReplyDelete

    ReplyDelete
  59. Really? Ok I'll make sure to have split second reachable when I read pivot point ;)

    ReplyDelete

    ReplyDelete
  61. Chenise Jones9/9/14, 8:14 AM

    I'd love to win In A Handful Of Dust by Mindy McGinnis!

  62. I would probably choose In The Afterlight by Alexandra Bracken. I loved The Darkest Minds and I can't wait to get my hands on the last book in the trilogy :)

    ReplyDelete
  63. Michelle Willms9/9/14, 10:32 AM

    I would choose one of the Odd Thomas books by Dean Koontz.

    ReplyDelete
  64. If you live in the US, make sure you've entered the publisher-sponsored giveaway for the entire series here.

    ReplyDelete
  65. There isn't a lot of recap in Split Second, so it would be easiest to read them together so you don't have to remember who is who.

    ReplyDelete
  66. What a great bookish haul. Ironically, I just watched the Epic Reads ARC party video the other day in which they talked about Twisted Fate. Sounds like an interesting read - cannot wait to get your thoughts. :)

    ReplyDelete
  67. I'd love to read World After by Susan E E, the second book on Penryn & the End of Days Series. Thanks for the giveaway :)

    ReplyDelete
  68. That's a hard call. I have several books that should be coming out over the course of the next couple of weeks. I'll just have to see what is available.......

    ReplyDelete
  69. I would definitely choose Blue Lily, Lily Blue! I can't wait!

    ReplyDelete
  70. I'd love to have City of Heavenly Fire. Thanks!
