-The Predicteds by Christine Seifert: this sounds really interesting and also creepy!
-The Lovely Bones and Looking Glass by Alice Sebold: I really loved this book when I read it a couple years ago and I couldn't resist this pretty boxed set with the added Looking Glass which FREAKED ME OUT when I opened it because it has all these faces in it!! I mean, I get why they're there, it just freaks me out.
-Fake Boyfriend by Kate Brian: I totally bought this because of the awesome cover with a Ken doll on it. And it sounds kinda cute :)
-Between the Lines by Jodi Picoult & Samantha van Leer: it sounds like my kind of feel-good read :)
I think I might need to go on a book buying ban... Those never really last though...

Suddenly Royal by Nichole Chase: I totally loved The Princess Diaries and movies like that, and this sounds like it is a slightly more mature version of that!!
Our Broke & Bookish book haul is inspired by memes like IMM & Stacking the Shelves & Mailbox Monday. This is just our very simple way of doing it collaboratively so we can participate in all of them and not have to choose one.
Aleinated???! Just my most anticipated release of 2014...*shrugs/happy dance* AND Coldest Girl??? Luckyyyy.

Yes! So much love for Holly Black and Rick Riordan! :D
DeleteSo many great books! (I'm jealous!) I can't wait to see what your thoughts are. :)
ReplyDeleteDreaming Anastasia was amazing. I read book 2&3 out of order but it still was a really fun read. I have a Russian Obsession lately so anything Russian was bought.
ReplyDeleteso many books!
ReplyDeleteEnvious of your books ;) I love Holly Black Tithe series. I'll have to read The Red Pyramid.
ReplyDeleteI don't quite know what to say, the book list never ends - I am part jealous but mostly relieved I don't have that many books being squashed into my mailbox. Happy reading!
ReplyDeleteLots of good books this week. Me Before You is really good. Get the tissues out if you're prone to crying. I did not like the Red Pyramid as much as I wanted to. Interested to see what you guys think of it.
ReplyDeleteFantastic haul! Enjoy!!!
