Here is what I received this week in
the mail.
For Review:
God Save The Queen by Kate Locke
via Hachette Book Group – very excited for this title, but no idea
if I won this somewhere or if they just saw it on my wishlist. Either
way, thank you HBG! Oh also, this book is a hardcover book without a dust jacket - it's a cute little book - just bigger than a paperback yet smaller than a traditional hardcover. LOVE IT!
Won:
The Language of Flowers by Vanessa Diffenbaugh from Jennifer @ Mrs. Q. Book Addict.
Thank you so much, this book has been
on my wishlist for a little while now. So excited to read it!
Bought:
My pre-order of This Is Not A Testby Courtney Summers came in on Friday. I'm super excited to read
this one. Will be getting to it in July for the Canadian Reading Challenge.
Gifted:
Random Magic by Sasha Soren
(signed copy) – this was a gift as I am participating in a vlog
blog tour for Random Magic. I had already reviewed the book a while
ago and used my copy as a giveaway copy when I was unable to order
one via Amazon, so Sasha graciously sent me a replacement copy so
that I can use it in my vlog. Thank you Sasha!
FRENZY magazine from HCCFrenzy –
after reading some great reviews about a recent HCCFrenzy event that
some of my favourite Canadian bloggers attended, I learned that I
could request my very own copy of this new magazine and I jumped at
the chance to get my own copy. Harper Collins Canada also sent along
a cute postcard and some Divergent Faction temporary tattoos. Thank
you HCCFrenzy!

Borrowed/Library:
Celebratori by Tori Spelling –
this one is about party planning and looks great (hoping to get some
great ideas for wedding decor).
Happy Accidents by Jane Lynch –
this is a memoir written by Jane and I couldn't resist reading about
the lady who plays the craziest character on GLEE! (Yes I have a
thing for Glee, it's my guilty pleasure).
Anne of Green Gables by LMMontgomery (audiobook) – I borrowed this one from the library
to help me participate in the Canadian Reading Challenge. And sadly,
most of you will freak when you hear that I have never read Anne of
Green Gables, EVER. I know – I'm a Canadian, so I should have read
this at some point right? Well I just never got around to doing it,
until now. Wish me luck.
So what books did you add to your
shelves this week?
God Save The Queen was awesome. I loved it. It's one of my favorite books of the year. Old follower.

I had not heard of the Frenzy magazines before. I really enjoyed it. :) Thanks for the comment about my cat - we actually have two cute furballs, but only Sasha would stay still. LOL

My STS
I think I'm the only person on this plant who has read This Is Not A Test and not loved it. I may have to give it a reread and see what I missed? Because I really don't know why I just didn't love it. I hope that you do end up loving it!!
ReplyDeleteGreat haul! =) Happy reading!

DeleteOoh This is NOt A Test is SO GOOD! I really want to order a pretty finished copy for myself! Great haul, Chrystal!!
ReplyDeleteI am really looking forward to it and am hoping to read it in a week or so after I finish a few review books. :)
