I'm participating in The Sunday Post, hosted by Kimba the Caffeinated Book Reviewer; Showcase Sunday hosted by Books, Biscuits and Tea; and Stacking the Shelves, hosted by Tynga's Reviews. These memes give book bloggers the chance to share print and digital books
they've received and posts and events at their blogs.
This month is flying by! Before I know it, Thanksgiving will be here. *shakes head* The weather has been chilly but good, I've been reading and editing, and making vacation plans.

I won this from Linda Poitevin as part of her release celebration for Sins of The Lost. I used her picture because it came out much better than mine. :)
Awesome swag, and I read an interview with Mike Bond, and the book sounds wonderful..but this little lady accepted too many books for review because the covers were yummy.
ReplyDeleteThe cover for Bond's book definitely sold me. Happily it's not out until 2014 so I have some before it's due.
DeleteSwag is always wonderful to get. I like seeing it. Frostbite was free and I couldn't pass on that deal as well. Thanks for visiting me earlier.

awesome swag pack from Linda Poitevin! I'm totally digging the cover of the Gail Carrington book and I think I need to go enter some giveaways. So, happy reading! My sunday post is over @Got Fiction Blog
ReplyDeleteI think given the number of times people ask how to catch a cat, you really need to do a special post giving your tips. Congrats on the swag. Here's my Sunday Post
ReplyDeleteWow a great week of goodies you had! Swag rocks! Freebies, library and review books - an absolute perfect week! I saw that Ellen Guon book and on first glance I thought it was a Robert Jordan book - the cover is done to look exactly like Robert Jordan!!! Or it's a coincidence! Either way - fooled me :D
ReplyDeleteHave a great week, girl!!!!
Nice haul. Happy reading :)
