Book Haul

Over the course of GYDO I've gotten some AMAZING ABSOLUTELY STUNNING BOOKS!

Why, yes. That is a UK copy of Crewel. (Oh! I also got these JUST today! Anna and the French Kiss and Lola and the Boy Next Door from the library and Surrender and Possession for the Surrender Blog Tour. I have no pics of my library books, but I managed to take one of my tour books!)

So YES! I actually didn't win the giveaway for Treachery of Beautiful Things! Eileen (Singing and Reading in the Rain) won the giveaway and donated the prize to me! She's SO NICE IT MAKES ME CRY! I can't wait to start it! Defiance is a preorder giveaway I won a while back and I did read it...not as good as I hoped but still pretty good. And CREWEL! OMG I'VE READ THIS AWESOMENESS and expect a review. I actually won an ARC copy too but I dropped it in mud. Yeah. MUD. I hate the rain.

YES. THAT IS SEND ME A SIGN. EEP! I totally read it in one sitting and bawled my eyes out! It's just so heartbreaking! My review''s coming up sometime this week! I can't believe it! My first Bloomsbury book! Dear Teen Me is porbably the only non-fiction book that I've read for pleasure, but some of these are so heartbreaking. I can't wait until my stop on the Dear Teen Me tour! Haunting Violet is from ARCycling, which is one of the best ides EVER. And eep! Such a Rush I got from Jennifer Echols herself! I've been absolutely DYING for this! Surrender and Possession are from (according to the return address) Elana Johnson for the Surrender Tour! I've been meaning to read these and am so glad I can dive right into Book 2 after Book 1!

Kill Me Softly, 20 Boy Summer, and Forgotten. I haven't read Forgotten yet but the other two were pretty "meh" I'm writing reviews on both so wait until those to see what I mean! Forgotten I seriously need to get to! I haven't read Revived (ARGH. NEED!), but I've heard awesome things about her work!

EEP! Tiger's Destiny I traded with Eileen! And. I. Loved it. ACK. I am a bit curious as to how the fifth book will turn out though. Tiger's Destiny seemed to pretty much wrap things up. And yes! That is Burning Blue, The Loop, and Falling Kingdoms! I actually hadn't heard of The Loop or Burning Blue until Montana from Book Belles offered it and I knew immediately I'd want them!I've scheduled my review of Burning Blue, but it's sometime in early October! I can't bleieve I have ALL THE BREATHLESS READS NOW!!! ACK! Oh. Dang. I also traded for an ARC of The Innocents (I KNOW I KNOW) but forgot to take a pic! Eep!

I read Anna, onto Lola! I absolutley ADORED Anna and the French Kiss and can't wait to sink into book 2! Ack!

And oops. Guess I didn't mention that Jennifer Echols also SIGNED Such a Rush for me, did I? Well she did and she threw in a bookmark too! This book is so pretty! I can't decided what to read next! HELP!
