Jen @ Pop! Goes The Reader
I absolutely adored Poison Princess when I read it last year, so much so that I invested a lot of time (and money!) reading the entirety of Kresley Cole’s adult romance series ‘Immortals After Dark’ afterward in order to pass the time until the release of Poison Princess‘ sequel in October. I thought it had such a unique, inventive premise and the romantic lead made me a little weak in the knees. I really hope you enjoy it as much as I did and I’m really looking forward to hearing what you thought of it! 😀

I LOVE the cover of Memory. It’s gorgeous! I’ve heard so much of Poison Princess lately; I might have to check it out. Great haul!
Halee @ Confessions of a Book Addict
ODell @ Book Twirps
Awesome haul! I REALLY liked Poison Princess. Hope you do too!
Jen
Roomies sounds like such a fun read! And I have yet to read a book by A.S. King.. I hope you enjoy Reality Boy! I’ve heard amazing things about the summer series, I need to jump on them! Lovely books this week, happy reading, Giselle!
Fahima @ I Read, Ergo I Write
Roomies! I love the sound of it! It’s been on my wishlist on Goodreads ever since I saw it. I cant wait for your review! 🙂
I’ve heard a lot about the Summer series, but have never gotten around to reading it. I’m hoping to sometime soon 🙂
Nikki
POISON PRINCESS! AND OMG. THE ENTIRE SUMMER SERIES. Now I feel the urge to buy it. THANKS A LOT. ;P
If You Could Be Mine sounds super good, but not really my kind of book so I don’t know whether I should read it…? *weighs pros and cons*
Charlotte
That’s another impressive haul, Giselle.Memory’s cover is gorgeous.
Looking forward to your review on Dan Brown’s Inferno. I already have it in my TBR pile but I’m quite apprehensive to read it especially after reading bad reviews.
Kris
Memory and Quarantine look like really interesting reads. I’m looking forward to your reviews!
Shannelle (The Tracery of Ink)
I’m interested to hear what you think of The Summer I Turned Pretty series. I saw it in bookstores, but never bought it because it wasn’t really something I thought I might like. But now, who knows? I might try it.
And that’s a great haul, Giselle.
Ula @ Blog of Erised
Awesome haul! White Space looks so good, I have to check it out.
Enjoy all the new reads!

Amazing haul! So many great books. I havent read any of them yet, but I want to read The Summer I Turned Pretty series and Poison Princess. Happy reading!
Kathy @ I Write, I Read, I Review
I hear you about the Costco prices! I can’t begin to count how many times I’ve given into the temptation of getting something just because the price was so awesome. 😀 Anyway, I hope you have a great week. Happy reading! 🙂
Megan (Ink Skies)
EEP, you got White Space! Though I wasn’t really a fan of Ilsa’s previous series (Ashes), I’m really excited for this one, because she’s proven that she can definitely write. And the cover’s awesome. I hadn’t heard of Memory before this, so thanks for putting it on my radar! That cover’s GORGEOUS. Boo, we hardly have any sales here, but those pretties! I want Poison Princess so bad. *grabs*
Have a lovely week, darling, and enjoy all your new books!
Kristen@My Friends Are Fiction
For some reason the cover for Reality Boy freaks me out…no clue why but makes me feel…unsettled. Great haul! I hope you love them all.

The cover for Memory is weird.. o_O Great books this week 🙂 some of those I haven’t see yet.
Have a good week!

You bought Poison princess?? Tell me how it is 🙂

Your Costco haul is AWESOME, Giselle. I miss that store, I haven’t had a membership for a couple years now. *grumbles* Anyway, I have that Jenny Han set and I’m hoping to read it this summer. I’ve never seen it in a box set like that before – pretty! I got mine in the bargain section at Chapters so two of them are paperback and one’s hardcover. Poison Princess is fantastic, I’m actually surprised you haven’t read it yet! I think you’ll enjoy it. I’m on the waiting list at my library for Inferno. I’ll look forward to all your reviews. Happy reading! 🙂
Kathy Martin
Great haul! I liked Poison Princess and just bought Inferno. Come see what I got at Inside of a Dog and Ms. Martin Teaches Media. Happy reading!
Tammy
Awesome haul! I’m looking forward to White Space, and Roomies looks so cute, I’ve seen a couple of reviews of that title. Have fun reading:)

That is a creepy cover for Memory! I’ll have to see what it’s about! And yay for the Summer series!! That’s one of my favourites. 🙂 I love finding great deals at Costco!
Molli
I am a bit jealous that you found the Summer books so cheap. I have been wanting to splurge on them for awhile, but I am having to watch my pennies. And Poison Princess! Supposedly it’s great, but it’s one I’m having trouble getting to because of my TBR mountain.
Rachel
I want to pick up Poison Princess! Have fun in Boston, Giselle! It’s an amazing city. 🙂
Hayley
Nice haul Giselle 🙂 Hope you enjoy all of your books!!

Nereyda @Mostly YA Book Obsessed
Have you read Poison Princess yet? I want to read it sooo bad but I’m too lazy to read my print copy and I don’t feel like buying the ebook…
I haven’t heard of Memory but I like memory loss books.
Enjoy your books!
