Showcase Sunday #32

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 everyone, I hope you've all had a wonderful week, this last week has been a nice quiet one and I got to come home to some great packages, don't you just love them more when they're totally unexpected? I have to say that this has to be one of my best hauls in a while!

Where do I even begin? There is so much awesomeness here that I have been dying to get my hands on; The Sound and These Broken Stars I have such high hopes for! I have heard such great things about Dangerous Girls, that I had to get my own copy. After devouring Golden by Jessi Kirby earlier this year, I had been planning on reading more of her books right away, and can I just say Moonglass sounds amazing. A lot of these books are thanks to amazing bloggers such as Donna and Jodie and authors such as Teri Terry, she sent me signed copies, with awesome swag and a fabulous card, thank you all ladies, you rock! If you don't hear from me again for the next couple of weeks it'll be because of all of these amazing books.

Over to Rachel and her goodies.

A Cursed Embraced by Cecy Robinson

The Chocolate Touch by Laura Florand | Full Blooded by Amanda Carlson | Hot Blooded by Amanda Carlson 

Thank you Cecy Robson and Heidi @ Rainy Day Ramblings!

So, I bought Crash after getting Bang.  Crash didn’t receive the highest praise, but I was interested in it from the beginning.  Hopefully lowering my expectations will help me enjoy it more.  Lisa McMann has been a hit and miss author for me. Hit with Wake, miss with Gone & Fade.  Hit with Cryer’s Cross.  So we’ll see.  Shadowlands is another that didn’t get the best reviews, but I was drawn to it because of the mystery, danger, and suspense. I requested The Chocolate Touch after Keertana’s @ Ivy Book Bindings raving reviews of the series. I’m wondering if I have to read all three predecessors to enjoy this one, but don’t you just love that cover?!!! I went to Paris earlier in the year and these are set in that amazing city *sigh*

I won A Cursed Embrace from Heidi’s blog Rainy Day Ramblings. This is the second time I’ve won a book through one of her giveaways! I just realized this is the second book in the series when I was putting this all together. I guess I better buy the first one! 

So that was our epic book haul for the last two weeks, if you posted a book haul feel free to leave a link in the comments, as we'd love to see what you received!
