T h e S u p e r S h i n y E d i t i o n !
I love the way Macmillan always sends out it's Top-Marketed Books of the Season in shiny foil mailers! I received two of these beauties this week and dedicated this week's edition to Macmillan!
Again, I'm sorry for the lack of content this past week. I've been sick and haven't had the energy to post. I had a lot planned, too. I'll try to fit it all in this week, along with some other already-planned goodies!
[link to my GoodReads account so you can see my blurb feed as I read]
READ THIS WEEK:
*THE SPINDLERS by Lauren Oliver
*THE GIRL OF FIRE AND THORNS by Rae Carson {Re-read!}
*THE CROWN OF EMBERS by Rae Carson {Up WAY TOO LATE reading this in one sitting but it was unputdownable, my favorite book so far of 2012!}
*ENTICE by Jessica Shirvington
*THE GIRL OF FIRE AND THORNS by Rae Carson {Re-read!}
*THE CROWN OF EMBERS by Rae Carson {Up WAY TOO LATE reading this in one sitting but it was unputdownable, my favorite book so far of 2012!}
*ENTICE by Jessica Shirvington
FEATURES:
RECEIVED THIS WEEK:
*THE MARK OF ATHENA by Rick Riordan
{This is the third/middle book in The Heroes of Olympus series, which is a companion series to Percy Jackson and the Lightning Thief. I've been highly anticipating this one! The cover is my favorite of Riordan's yet, and the book is his longest to date, too!!}
*SCARLET by Marissa Meyer
{Out Feb. 5, 2013}
{Thank you again to Macmillan! This is the sequel to this year's fabulous CINDER, which I've reviewed, as well as featured an interview with series cover designer Rich Deas! Macmillan sent this one in a scarlet red mailer, and I'm excited to see how heavily they still plan to promote Marissa Meyer!}
ARCS/Finished Copies:
*UNREMEMBERED by Jessica Brody
{Out March 5, 2013}
{Out March 5, 2013}
{Thank you to Macmillan! This is Brody's first series; her previous novels were all stand-alones! I've wanted to read this since first reading about the publishing deal and was THRILLED to see Macmillan send it in a shiny pink mailer because it means it will be one of their most highly-visible/most-promoted winter titles! I've reviewed THE KARMA CLUB and 52 REASONS TO HATE MY FATHER and have somehow never posted my review of MY LIFE UNDECIDED, though I KNOW I wrote one...hmmm...!}
*SCARLET by Marissa Meyer
{Out Feb. 5, 2013}

Borrowed:
*IRON-HEARTED VIOLET by Kelly Barnhill
{I've been looking forward to this one! Fairy tales and princesses? I'm so in!}
E-Books/E-Arcs
*TIMELESS by Michelle Madow
{Out Nov. 20, 2012}
{Watch out for an upcoming blog tour! I previously reviewed the first book in this trilogy, REMEMBRANCE!}
*AFTER HELLO by Lisa Mangum
{Out now}
{Out now}
{"What if the first day of your relationship was the only day you had?" This tagline alone has me intrigued!}
*17 & GONE by Nova Ren Suma
{Out March 21, 2013}
{Nova Ren Suma's latest mystery sounds even more intriguing than IMAGINARY GIRLS...which I have apparently not reviewed, either. I always think I do somethinge and never do, sorry!}

Ebook Freebies
*SWEET VENOM by Tera Lynn Childs
{I have a hardcover of this, as well as the sequel, but couldn't resist when I saw on Twitter that Epic Reads/HarperTeen was giving this out for free last weekend! Sadly, I believe the offer is over now. Sorry if you missed out!}
What did you get in your mailbox this week?
I'm very jealous that you have Scarlett! Happy Reading!
ReplyDeleteCheck out my Haul! Letterbox Love!
So jealous of people that have Scarlett. I so want a copy of it. Great haul Bonnie. Thanks for visiting me earlier.
ReplyDeleteGrace
It seriously only arrived yesterday, so there's still time! <3
DeleteGreat haul. I hope my copy of Scarlet arrives this week. I get all my packages at work so I am hoping that it will show up this week. I love Macmillan's colorful mailers. Happy reading!
ReplyDeleteBonnie! I've missed you too, we both fail for coming to see each other lately ;P
ReplyDeleteFamily is doing great! Thanks for asking.
I need to read the last Percy Jackson still, I have read through book 4 though ;)
Also, I've had Cinder since release but still haven't read it. If it has a cliffhanger like that then I think I will wait until Scarlet comes out! LOL
Also, I hope you feel better soon!!!
DeleteWhat the what, so jealous of 17 & Gone! Hope you enjoy :)

I still haven't gotten to read Cinder yet but I hope to soon because I've heard a lot of awesome things about it. I do still have a code card just shoot me an email at paige_bradish@yahoo.com and I'll be happy to give you one! =D
ReplyDeleteCongrats on all the amazing books! I hope you enjoy them all, happy reading and feel better! ^.^ If you would like to check out my Stacking The Shelves you can do so here. :)
ReplyDeleteI have Scarlet and Iron Hearted Violet too! Unremembered sounds a bit different from what Jessica Brody normally writes – will be interested to see what you think of it :) And I hope you have a speedy recovery from being sick, Bonnie!
