Owl Post #34


Inspired by The Story Siren's In My Mailbox, Owl Post allows us bloggers to showcase the books we've bought, won or received throughout the week and is hosted by Brodie over at Eleusinian Mysteries. We all know that the Owl Post is the fastest way to send and receive mail and they certainly make me happy every time they drop a book off.
 
Hi everyone!
 
Welcome to this week's Owl Post! It's been a while since I've posted an Owl Post, not for lack of books to share either. It just seems I've had other things scheduled these past couple of Mondays. So in saying that, let's take a look and what I've bought and received lately......
 
For Review:
From Simon & Schuster......
 
- The Professional by Kresley Cole
I love Kresley Cole's Immortals After Dark series so I'm always game to read something by her!
 
- Rush Too Far by Abbi Glines
I adore Abbi Glines and I loved the chance to read from Rush's POV. Yep--I've read this already. Be on the lookout for my up-coming review!
 
- Sometimes It Lasts by Abbi Glines
The Sea Breeze series are some of my favorite of Abbi Glines books and I'm always happy to get a new installment, but I'm super nervous knowing Abbi is gonna put Cage & Eva some difficulties....
 
- Sweet Filthy Boy by Christina Lauren
I'm yet to read any of the Beautiful Bastard series but I'm interested in reading this spin-off (???) series. Think it might be a good way to begin Christina Laurens stories :)
 
........Thank you Jennifer!

From Hot Key Books.......
 
- The Lovely and the Lost by Page Morgan
This series is SO AMAZING and so incredibly UNDERRATED! I've already read this and loved it (review to come!) and I already can't wait until the 3rd book!
 
- Say Her Name by James Dawson
This book sounds super creepy! I'm very much looking forward to reading it. 
 
- Love Letters to the Dead by Ava Dellaira
I've just began this book and I have to say I really like the concept of this book--it's really different. Promising so far.
 
................Thank you Jennifer!

From Pan Macmillan.....
 
- As Stars Fall by Christie Nieman
I'm not sure how likely I'll read this book but I may try to worm it into my reading schedule at some point. I really don't read enough authentic Aussie fiction.
 
.......Thanks guys!
 
From Allen & Unwin......
 
- Every Word by Ellie Marney
I really loved Ellie Marney's debut Every Breath and thought Every Word was equally as good. Cannot wait until the next book is released!
 
- Rebel by Amy Tintera
Amy Tintera's debut novel Reboot was fantastic and Rebel was as easily as good. I loved it! Check out my review here
...........Thank you Lara!

From Bloomsbury...........
 
- Chasing Stars by Helen Douglas
I have actually read the first book in this duology, After Eden, although I'm yet to post a review. Will get around to this one day.
 
...............Thank you guys!

From Scholastic......
 
- Breaking Butterflies by M. Anjelais
To be honest, I'm not really sure what to think of this book. It sounds...odd.
 
- Seven by James Phelan
I'm still missing the first book in this The Last Thirteen series, I have the 6 other books, but not the first..... 
 
............Thank you guys!
 
 I Bought:
 
- The King by J.R. Ward
I LOVE the Black Dagger Brotherhood series and I'm excited to read the 12th book. I jus have to find the time amongst all my review books!
 
- The Taking by Kimberly Derting
This book was one of my WOW's a few weeks back and I'm really looking forward to reading it. I haven't read any Kimberly Derting book's yet but this looks soooooo good!

- All Lined Up by Cora Carmack
Cora Carmack is one of my favourite NA authors with her Losing It series one of my all time faves so it goes without saying I'm looking forward to reading her latest release!

- Royally Lost by Angie Stanton
I participated in a blog tour for this a couple of weeks back and loved the sound of it so much that I decided to purchase a copy on a whim. Look forward to reading it.

Lots of book goodness for me lately!
What have you gotten recently?

  1. Awesome haul! I read The Taking last month and it was really good. I've heard fantastic things about Love Letters to the Dead so I hope you enjoy it!
