Owl Post #20


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.
 
Welcome to yet another Owl Post! I feel like I've been slacking lately but I haven't had all the time in the world to organize posts---work if getting to it's busy time of the year and unfortunately has to take priority over books and blogging. I know, right? Silly!

Anywhoo, let's see what goodies I've gotten lately.


For Review:

 
....From Simon & Schuster Australia.....
 
- Unbreakable by Kami Garcia
This book looks so good! I'm really excited to read it--hope it lives up to my expectations....
 
- Endless Knight by Kresley Cole
I love Kresley Cole's books and Poison Princess was a favorite of mine last year so it goes without saying that I'm excited to read this. But I'm also really scared. I heard some not so good things about the shocking ending that could have no-so-good consequences from my baby Jack---don't wanna be mad with Kresley!
 
- Forever Too Far by Abbi Glines
Man, I have GOT to read this series! I have all books now thanks to the fabulous guys over at Simon & Schuster and as an Abbi Glines fan I think it's about time I work it into my reading schedule.
 
.....Thank you to the team at Simon & Schuster AU, especially Anabel---you rock!
 
 
From HarlequinTEEN Australia.....
 
- Through the Zombie Glass by Gena Showalter
OMG! Gena Showalter is a genius! While I'm yet to post a review, I have read this and let me just say....SQUEE! So. Good!
 
- Countdown by Michelle Rowen
I just finished reading this book and I quite liked it. I know there's mixed reviews for it out there but I loved it--review to come!
 
.....Thank you Polina!
 
 
I Bought:
 
 
- Ill Wind by Rachel Caine
- Windfall by Rachel Caine
- Firestorm by Rachel Caine
- Thin Air by Rachel Caine
I've heard some good things about the Weather Warden series and when I saw them in my local bargan books store for 3 for $10 I ended up getting them. I already have a copy of book 2, now I just need to get 3!

- Once by Anna Carey
I haven't read the first book in this series but finding a brand new hardback of the 2nd in the series for less than $5 was too good to pass up!

- Bound by Night by Larissa Ione
I love Larissa Ione's books and when I heard she had a new series coming out I knew I had to have a copy of the first book. Glad my pre-order arrived. Now to read this baby!


Annnnd, that's me!
What did the Owls drop off for you this week?!?
