I'm participating in The Sunday Post, hosted by The Caffeinated Book Reviewer; Showcase Sunday hosted by Books, Biscuits and Tea; Stacking the Shelves, hosted by Tynga's Reviews; Bought Borrowed and Bagged, hosted by TalkSupe; and Library Loot co-hosted by The Captive Reader and Silly Little Mischief. All of these memes are about sharing the print
and digital books received and/or posts and events on the blog.
I had a busy week with job hunting, doctor's appointments, and my church's annual fair. The rain held off for the latter until after we started breaking down for the day, which was a relief. The weather makes a huge difference in the turnout we get and rain is a killer.

The author and I were chatting on Twitter about another author's book and then when I mentioned I had her book on my wish list, she gifted me a copy. :) I've already finished it. :D
Review
I actually received 2 copies of Broken Soul by Faith Hunter; first a print ARC then 2 days later a finished copy. :D I'm reading Reckoning now.

Fantastic UF books this week!!! I love Faith Hunter!! Rogue Mage was one of the first UF series I ever read and I so wished she would of kept going b/c it was such a cliffhanger at the end of the book 3 - if you call the main character cuddled in bed with 3 guys a cliffie ;)
ReplyDeleteGlad the church fair went off with virtually no rain!!!! PHEW! We got drenched last week over here, too!
Have a great week next week!
I haven't read her Rogue Mage books yet but I like her Yellowrock books. Have a great week!
DeleteI only got three books this week and they were all from the library. My birthday is this week so I haven't been able to buy books for the last month (in the past I had bought books someone bought me for my birthday so I go on a book buying ban the month before my birthday). Love the cover of "On the Naughty List"
ReplyDeleteMy mother had a knack for buying me books I already owned. :D Happy birthday!
DeleteIt rained all day here Friday and was pretty cold too- glad you escaped the worst of it for the fair. We're starting to really cool down now like it or not... will see what this week brings.
ReplyDeleteNice cat photo last week- looks like your new friend is settling in nicely. :)
Yeah, it's been cooling down here too. Brr. But I am enjoying after the summer.
DeleteClaude is settling though he's still skittish.
It's fun to see the Christmas books popping up on the blogs now. I was looking at some this week too as I wanted to pick a selection for the HoHoHo readathon.
ReplyDeleteThat was so nice of the author to do that! It happened me once as well and it was so unexpected.
Good luck with the job hunting :)
Yep, I've been picking up books for the Ho-Ho-Ho Read-a-thon. :)
DeleteIt was nice of Ms Curtis, I really appreciated it. Thanks for the good wishes!
What ? No funny search phrases ? I'm so disappointed ! Enjoy your book haul and have a great week !
ReplyDeleteI was too!
DeleteSome great looking reads. I am seeing Christmas around the blogosphere and I am only to Halloween. LOL
ReplyDeletesherry @ fundinmental
LOL Yeah, books and retail really mess up the seasons.
DeleteEnjoy your new books! I'm curious about Twisted.
ReplyDeleteHere's MY WEEKLY SUNDAY/MONDAY UPDATES POST
Twisted was good and I'm ready for book two!
DeleteThat's great about the weather! I always hate when you put all kinds of effort into an event and the weather messes everything up! Great books this week! Look forward to seeing your reviews!
ReplyDeleteIt really is so frustrating when that happens, we lucked out.
DeleteGood luck with the job hunt. Sorry you have cold rainy weather but it's conducive for snuggling up with a book! Looks like you had a lucky haul this week, and your Christmas title looks cute.
ReplyDeleteHave a good week reading.
Yes, it certainly is; curl up with a book or a cat and some cocoa. Mmmm.
DeleteHave a great week!
Loving the holiday books, and Twisted looks interesting.Fingers crossed for the job hunt. Have a lovely week Bea.

ReplyDeleteTwisted sounds good, hope that you enjoy and have a good week.
ReplyDeleteAll those books look so good. I've loved Carla Cassidy's from way back when I read Harlequins. She's very good. Good luck with the job hunting. I eventually found a job that's part time but slowly turning into full time.
ReplyDeleteHave a great week!
I'm a little jealous of all the rain everyone is getting. Glad it held off for you guys long enough though. Have a great week, Bea, and enjoy your books.
ReplyDeletewoo, Christmas books are coming for review now :))) Glad you had a good week, Bea! Hope your next one will be even better! *mwah*
ReplyDeleteGlad the rain held off for the fair. Good luck with the job hunting, hope you find something soon. Have a good week and happy reading. :-)
