In my mailbox (#3)
"In my mailbox" is a weekly meme hosted by http://www.thestorysiren.com/
Hello my little piggies! Am I crazy or what? I actually went to Chapters today, in this maddness! I've never seen a line so big in Chapters before. Jeesh, I've never seen Chapters so crowded, period!
I did end up picking two books up, despite there being a bunch under the Christmas tree ^.^
Here's what I got (and might I had, I was pretty witty with my selections):
You think this cover is scary? If you've ever seen the paperback version of this, opened the covers flap, you will have nightmares my friend. Seriously, I still can't believe I bought this book. It's about ZOMBIES! Zombies are like my worst fear. So make that two reason's why I am crazy. This is NOT the type of book I'd read. Not in a million years. BUT this is what I encourage you to do my friends. Make an effort to read at least ONE book once every few months to read something you'd never atually pick up to read. Who know's, you might actually like it. I think everyone should broaden their reading horizon's. It's good for the mind, and it's good to spice your book life up, just a bit.
Lastly I picked up:
As some of you know, I am a member of inkpop. If you don't know what inkpop is, here is the link: http://www.inkpop.com/
I've been a member of inkpop for quite a while and look forward to their blog posts everyday. Some time this week they had a blog post with this weeks releases (a weekly meme) and they had this book featured. I could hardly contain my excitment when I saw this on the shelf, nestled between two books I can't remember the titles of. I'm surprised I even saw this. I'm so excited to read this. It sounds so good!
For a synopsis for both books, here are the goodread's links:

Oh yes, remember that Taunting Tuesday's post about "Jessica Rules the Darkside?" Oh, it's out already, BUT MY BOOKSTORE DOESN'T HAVE IT! I have to order it online which I can't do until AFTER Christmas. It makes me so mad.
Anyways, I hope to have one more blog post up before the holiday's offically begin, but I can't make any promises. Who know's, I may be gone the entire 2 week vacation I have, or I may not. I will always post my review of books I've currently finished, even if it's in the new year ^.^
Zombies, repulsive faces, handsom boys with wings,

Ah, I bought 8 books this week and I know I'm getting a bunch for Christmas. I have a book addiction and it's getting worse. Eek!
ReplyDeleteI know how you feel! I have a MAJOR book addiction. My mom bought me 19 books this month... not including these two or other books I might have gotten inbetween. I have 9 under the tree and insisted on getting these one's yesturday. I'm so bad :| At least I had a VISA giftcard to use, and didn't have to ask my mom for money (hehehe).
ReplyDeleteOhh, I'm so curious about Ron & Ruin! It seems real good. o: In a more creepy way. Hope you enjoy!
ReplyDeleteHappy Holidays! My Christmas IMM!
