in audio (20.5 hours. 17 disks! ) and they had a copy of
on a display for teen books so I had to get it. I am so excited to read it. I also got
from the discards/free books rack.

Wendy, I heard from a very unreliable source that the Wicked Stepmother one was awful, which made me really curious about it. When you get around to reading it, I would love to know what you thought.

Yeah! I assume that he must have come to my B&N for the Everfound book signing (I friggin missed it! I have to get better about checking book tours!) So they had autographed copies of those three books.

my book count this month so far: 65!! and that is excl. free kindle books.
Oh man, don't say that! I requested it a while ago and can't remember what it was about. I liked the idea enough to request it though. That counts, right?
Someone sent me
in the mail. I'm kind of looking forward to reading it mostly because I like books in journal format, to tell the truth I can't stand the show so it'll be kind of funny to read.

I'm going in blind Heidi. I can't remember what it's about and don't want any info. I like reading that way. I hate when I expect something to happen. It takes away the fun (or whatever other feeling it was supposed to make me feel). >_<
I went through my TBR list on Goodreads, and downloaded
and
for my Nook (I don't think I'll need to go to the library anytime soon).
