Showcase Sunday is a weekly meme hosted by Vicky at Books, Biscuits and Tea. The aim is to showcase our newest books or book related swag and to see what everyone else received for review, borrowed from libraries, bought in bookshops and downloaded onto eReaders this week.
Hello lovely readers, the last two weeks I've been trying to keep my requesting finger in check. I had a peek the other day at my May releases and couldn't believe how much awesomeness I had coming up. I seriously need to get down to reading all of them. So I'm quite proud that I only receivedfive seven (this was five until last night.) books for review and they're ones which I've been dying to get my hands on.

Thank you to Walker Books UK, Angry Robot, Kensington Books and Simon & Schuster
I was beyond excited when I was finally accepted for Golden, The Book of Broken Hearts, The Vow and Right of Way by S & S. I adored Ockler's book Bittersweet so couldn't wait to get my hands on a copy of her latest novel. The Pirate's Wish and Spirit were also two books high on my wish list I can't wait to see what Clarke has in store for Naji and Ananna and I'm hoping that Hunter will finally be able to win me over in Spirit.
Over to Rachel now to see what she received.

Flat- Out Matt by Jessica Park
Crossing the Line by Katie McGarry
Burning Blue by Paul Griffin
Among the Nameless Stars (Prequel to For Darkness Shows the Stars) by Diana Peterfreund.(freebie on Amazon Thank you Jenny @Supernatural Snark for the heads up!)
Okay, wow, didn’t know I had so much here, and I’ve probably forgot some, too!! I guess I won’t be able to sleep, eat, or much of anything else but read, lol! I’m thrilled about Spirit because I love all those Merrick boys! I’m also quite excited about Doll Bones even if it is a middle grade. Holly Black has an unusual writing style that I loved with her Modern Fairy series. I LOVED Flat-Out Matt!! It’s sort of a companion/extension to Flat-Out Love. I just ordered a physical copy and I think I might give it away with Flat-Out Love next month, just to share the love! Did you share a book haul this week? We'd love to know which books you received, please leave a link in the comments and we'll be over to check it out soon.

*jaw drop* oh my god that is AN EPIC book haul! I totally get what you mean about restraining the requesting finger. I have a calendar where I mark all the releases so I know when to not request. I have banned myself from requesting any may or june releases right now, I need to read my own books! As for the books you guys got, I just read The Book of Broken Hearts and it was quite enjoyable. I am also dying to read The Testing! I've already read the collector and it was awesome
enjoy all your books ladies!

You got wonderful books this week! The Collector is a great book. I loved it :D
Enjoy your reads!
GOLDEN! Jasprit, I just LOVED that book, so I can't WAIT to see what you think! I'm also really excited for Ockler's new novel, so I hope it's fantastic. While I wasn't a fan of The Pirate's Wish, I certainly hope you enjoy it! :)
And Rachel, you've got Burning Blue! I really enjoyed that one, so I'm VERY curious to see what you think of it since the romance is very subtle and the mystery is more prominent. I still think you'll really enjoy it.
Lovely haul this week, ladies! :D

I can't wait to see what you think of Doll Bones, Rachel! I know neither of us read much middle grade, but I quite liked it overall. I wasn't blown away though. I'm really looking forward to reading Spirit and The Pirate's Wish, too. I'll probably make a start on Spirit soon. Great haul, ladies! :)
Ahh, lots of amazing :D I liked Doll Bones. <3 A sweet creepy book :) *Jealous of your print ARC* Hope you enjoy it all. <3

My Haul
Jaspirit I have The Pirate's Wish and Spirit too and I'm really looking forward to them :) Rachel, I'm not familiar with Shadow Eyes but like the sound of it, I'll be interested in seeing your review. Great book hauls ladies, happy reading :D
Eeep! Awesome books, ladies.
I got Spirit too and I'm excited to read it. I'm a little wary since Hunter wasn't my favorite character, but I hope I'll fall for him too.
Jasprit, you should let me know when you'll be reading The Book of Broken Hearts. We should read it together if you want! :)
Golden sounds like a good read too, but I didn't request it because of the never ending tbr pile that I have.
Rachel, your book haul is epic! So many great books on there. I got True for review too. I'm hoping it will be an enjoyable read. I need to get a copy of Crossing The Lines. It sounds like a very cute novella.
Enjoy your book hauls! :)
Nice haul. Happy reading :)

That is one AWESOME haul! really would like to read Crossing the Line since I have loved every Katie Mcgarry book ever.Insomnia by J.R Johansson and Doll Bones by Holly Black are pretty high on my TBR pile.

I so cannot wait for Doll Bones to release! I love Holly Black so much. :) I got the Testing too, really hoping that's a good one! And oooh... Golden. I read this over the weekend (actually in a single day) and it was pretty amazing. Hope you love it too! Happy Reading guys!

Sunny @ Blue Sky Bookshelf
Lovely, lovely haul, ladies. So many awesome books that I'm dying to read. In the meantime, I'll have to just pine a little bit longer...sigh.
Great Haul you got there... Spirit is AMAZING but a little sad . (Just a heads up)
Krazyyme @ Young Readers
Flat-Out Matt! I can't wait! And I really liked Spirit, it was surprising at times, shocking even, and I loved the risks Kemmerer took.
I also can't wait to read The Pirate's Wish... I hear there's finally going to be kissing. Dare I hope for a declaration of love? Hopefully I'll get to it soon.
Oooo another awesome week for the both of you! I can't wait for Spirit, I love that series so much. I still need to read Breathless as well. Love me some Nick! And I can't wait to see what you think of True Rachel! I just got that one too and am super excited to start it. MORE NA!
Oh Jasprit, I can't wait to hear what you think of GOLDEN! And Rachel, I got The Testing too, it sounds pretty intriguing. :) Happy reading, ladies! So pleased you're joining us on the Spirit tour.
Wendy @ The Midnight Garden
Spirit & The Collector. I am jealous. Not gonna lie, lol. Dying to read those. Will be looking out for your reviews on it. Happy reading!
