Books I just got in the mail/bought/checked out

The 'Heir' series is one of my favorite! If you like it, also try the Mortal Instrument series...

At any rate, YAY for Beat the Reaper!




I ended up getting




all for only $6! (Two were hardcovers, two were paperbacks, but all of them were in like-new condition)
I'm excited to start them after I finish Jellicoe Road, which is due back at the library next week.


I always browse the racks at the Plato's near me and every time it seems like the only books available are Twilight and Gossip Girl :/
That being said, I hardly ever strike gold at Goodwill but today seemed to be my lucky day! I suppose it's just the luck of the draw.

My Goodwill usually only has nonfiction and the Left Behind books (which I don't read). I get most of my books at my friends of the library bookstore, which is a nice place but it's only open until 4.

That stinks. I always get really good books at my Plato's Closet. :(



I really hope these are good books!!! They sound so different from what I am use to reading, but I thought the same thing about the Hunger Games and that series ended up being my favorite :)

I also got the ARCs for


Now I just have to decide what to read first.


But I'm pretty sure that after he's done I will borrow it to read it, hehe :)



you must have an awesome library. Mine barely has recent books :(
so I resort to buying my own books, which I think worsens my book buying addiction, lol.




I just downloaded this too, I'm so excited!! The Little House books are one of my favorite series of all time! Little House in the Big Woods is my favorite book :)

I belong to a pretty big library system, Tulsa county Oklahoma. They have a large selection of books. The only problem is the waiting. There are always a huge number of holds on new releases.

Same here. We have new releases but we have to wait for them, sometimes I'm on hold for weeks.

Same here. I hate it when I'm 869th in line. :)

Oh I see. The library system in my area is not too big. I have tried putting myself on wait lists too for books but they either don't have the book in the system or it takes way too long to get to my library. I'm really impatient I have to admit so I get frustrated and just desist of it all, lol.







And in audio/CD:


I am going to have fun reading, listening and cooking up a storm. :)



Love that Little House book too :)

yea, it is.
lol, yea that's what happens to me most of the time. I just end up buying it, haha

I just bought

and I was just so excited that it was out in paperback, that I just had to get it :D been wanting to read this one for a while!
Also bought



That was a fun fast read! I really enjoyed it myself :)


I've had good luck but someone else said they didn't - I guess it depends on each store since people bring their stuff there to sell. Just like Goodwill. My Goodwill has a poor selection of books but the one we went to on vacation in WI had a great selection.
