received/ purchased/ borrowed during the current week.
Are we all ready for Christmas? We’re putting our tree up tomorrow and most of my shopping is done – FYI, I don’t like shopping o_O. So you know how I said I wasn’t buying any books before Christmas, well, Clockwork Prince happened to be at Costco for half price so… yeah I couldn’t very well leave it there now could I? =) Let’s see what else I got this week.
I got for review (click on cover or links for Goodreads):



I was happy when I saw KM signed her book for me, and I also got this wonderful swag from KC Neal (yes, KC, there were 4 bookmarks but the little one got a hold of one…)
I have bought:
A big thank you to HCB Publishing, Avery Sawyer, Flux Books, Karice Bolton, Harper Collins, Simon & Schuster, Beth Ann Masarik, HBG Canada, Penguin Canada and KM Parr for the review copies, and thank you KC for the great swag!
Did you get something good this week?

The Pyxis bookmarks are so cute!
Kris (Words That Fly)
First of all I am jealous that you have Clockwork Prince. Grrrr. Now that that’s out my system… I’ve seen Ripper around but it kind of feels like it would creep me out too much. Third thing: Arrrrgh! The Blood Rights series! By Kristen Painter! Arrgh! I want. *sigh* I so need some book money. Happy reading!

Glad to see you had such a great week. 🙂 It’s been relatively quiet for me. Just got some stuff tonight but I think I’ll save that for next weekend.
I broke down and bought Clockwork Prince, though, which is ridiculous because I haven’t read Clockwork Angel. But I figure I can order that online and now I already have the new one to go with it. Hopefully I like them. (When will I learn not to do that??)
