A weekly meme on the books on the top of my list to read and books recently acquired, borrowed, or bought. Inspired by the Story Siren’s In My Mailbox.
Top of the Shelf / Currently Reading
What’s next on my to-read list for the upcoming week. I got Blood Promise from the e-book library last week. I always forget about e-books in my posts…
Books Bought and/or Signed
If you read last week’s post, I attended the Teen Author Festival at my favorite children’s indie, Books of Wonder. Here’s what I got signed last week. I bought Prom & Prejudice and Clarity and brought the others from home. (Pictures are kinda sucky this week. Sorry! I had to use my vado video camera since my digital camera decided to run out of battery.)
Books Won and From Trade
I won a few books this week: Rotters from RandomBuzzers, Cleopatra’s Moon from Arthur A Levine’s twitter (@AALBooks), and The Dark City from Library Thing. I also traded with Tawni from The Book Worms and got Dark Mirror.
E-Books
I was gifted some e-books as well from Ivy of Ivy Reads and was lent a book by my best friend Sunny. I also accepted a review request of Inevitable from an author and was approved to review The Girl in the Steel Corset through NetGalley (Thanks Lisa!).

Fab books! Prom and Prejudice soundds like such a cute and fun read, but I keep being on the fence on it. I’ll look forward to your review whenever you get to it!

It might take a while, but I’ll let you know. My best friend is a huge Austen fan and she loved it, so we’ll see….
You sure got a lot of really amazing stuff this week. All those signed books are making my eyes go crossed! I hope you love them all.
Awesome signed books! I’m going to have to check out Inevitable. Cool cover! I want to check out Rotters, too. Happy reading
The Girl in the Steel Corset is one of the books I would love to have. Enjoy reading it…
Great books you got this week. Clarity is such an amazing book. Hope you enjoy reading all your books.
How are you enjoying the VA series? I love it! It’s my favourite series of all time. I can’t believe it took me so long to discover it.
Enjoy all of your books!
