I got this week, and I also mention blog news/happenings of the past week.
This week at Xpresso Reads I had the Hemlock blog tour stop by - which is one of my top favorite reads of this year so make sure to check out my fabulous interview with Kathleen and my glowing review. I also had a few cover reveals, the first includes five wonderful covers posted here, the second and third: the Prodigy cover, the sequel to Legend, and the Fuse cover, sequel to Pure by Julianna Baggott, I posted on my Facebook page. There was also a new giveaway posted on Monday as part of the Spring Fling giveaway hop. Lastly, I forgot to mention it last week, but I was featured on Bewitched Bookworms' My Reading Spot - you can find out where I read and stuff here and check out Danny's lovely blog! :)
As for books, I had a pretty insane week.
I got for review (Click on cover or title links for Goodreads):


*I want to send an immense virtual hug to Sterling Publishing, Macmillan Publishers, Candlewick Press, Simon & Schuster Canada, Random House Canada, Raincoast Books, St. Martin's Press, Random House Children's Books, and J.L. Bryan for these fabulous books*
I also bought:

This was a pretty insane week for me I hope I don't get very much next week so I don't suffocate.
What did you get this week?
Link me up! :)











Hahaha yes! Read The Enemy as soon as you can. I hope you like it. Even if you don't I will still love you. And I am uber jealous you got Outpost. *shakes fist*
ReplyDeleteWOW such amazing books! Which one will you read first?
ReplyDeleteGiselle, this is utterly insane. I am so excited for you. I am most excited for the Laura Buzo and Eve and Adam but you will have SO much amazing reading coming up. I hope you have enough time for even half of them:) I have no idea how you accomplish so much!
ReplyDeleteOh my goodness! That's a lot of books! Eve & Adam, Girl of Nightmares & Meant to Be are on my TBR. Looking forward to your reviews! It looks like I've got some more books to check out from your haul.
ReplyDeleteHappy Reading!
Holy! That is a week of insane. I'm really interested in that The Enemy, can't wait to see what you think! Never Enough also looks really good and I like the cover for The Infects. Hope you enjoy them all!

ReplyDeleteOh my gosh, what a huge week you had! I hope you enjoy all of them.
ReplyDeleteI'm currently reading Code Name Verity, and I like it, but I'm finding that I'm having to go super slow so I can fully soak it in. Not one that you can easily run through. I'd love to know what you think about it.

Wow, I think I missed your Hemlock review *checking it now*
And I did see your feature at Bewitched Bookworms' My Reading Spot last week, your son is a doll! Cutie! And how can you "NOT"(sarcastic tone) love Elmo??? Thank goodness my 4 yr. old is sooo over Elmo! This week he's into Stuart Little, I swear I've watched it 3000 times--*Gouges eyes* Oh, I'm bald, BTW!!! ;) Baaaahhhaaaa
Wow, awesome haul this week! Never Enough is so so so good, you have to read it soon!! I requested Meant to Be and Love and Other Perishable Items on NG, too, but they haven't responded yet... And of course, INSURGENT!!! :p Hope you love all your books :)

ReplyDeleteAnd good luck with not suffocating! ;]
Patricia // My Week
This is JUST ANOTHER REMINDER of how horrible a reader I am for letting Enclave slip to the backburner. Before you know it the whole series will be done, and I'll be the only who HASN'T read it. Silly me. Everybody seems to LOVE Code Name Verity and I can't wait to start my copy. I'm so disappointed in the change of the Fury series covers, darn it. The first was AMAZEBALLS.
ReplyDeleteGiselle, you are TOTALLY stacking it up this week. Love the haul!
Djeeees, that's an insane mailbox indeed :D There are so many books I'm waiting for: meant to be, eve & adam and wake are my favorites!
ReplyDeleteHappy reading :D
Holy cow! That's a lot of books girl! Eve and Adam and The Unnaturalists look SO good! Check out Our Week in Books at Libby Blog! Happy reading!
ReplyDeleteFab books this week! I also have to tell you, again, that I LOVE the new look!! Enjoy
