"I get books to read and then ultimately share my thoughts about with my readers. As much as I want to, I can’t possibly read every book I receive. Yet, I still wanted a way to feature those books on the blog, even though it might not be in the form of a review. Problem solved! Every week I'd share the books I received that week... ones I'd bought, or gotten at the library, and ones that I'd receive to review on the blog. That way I could mention titles that might not otherwise get some face-time on The Story Siren..."
I find the same thing happening at A Backwards Story. I'm so backed up on reviews atm... That's why I like these videos!
READING NOW:

I'll write this out later...or maybe on the train...I have to leave! This video wasn't rendering last night and kept freezing and I wasn't home during the day...
But for now, here's the video and YouTube link!
Lots of awesome stuff there. :D I totally love your disney boxes. I am a total beauty & the beast fan and I think that is really pretty. Your snow white is gorgeous too and there is no wonder why you want the Cinderella box.
ReplyDeleteThe Cinder mirror is really cool, and from what I could see the cover for the one book you got definitely looks pretty. I haven't signed up on Library Thing yet. Maybe I'll look into that.
Anyway, so glad to see that the week was good to you. Have a great day!!
Yay for CATCHING JORDAN...I just requested it on NG...so excited~
ReplyDeleteYou got such an awesome haul of books. Love it. Great job of getting all that loot.
ReplyDeleteLooks like you got some amazing stuff this week! I really want to read The Poison Diaries books.
ReplyDeleteIMM at Book Brats!
I'm waiting with baited breath to see what you think about Hallowed. I didn't get my request approved from NG. I'm so bummed, cuz I wanted to read it early! Now I gotta wait.
ReplyDeleteGreat haul! The Cinder Mirror is really cool!
