I love book outlet Jenny. I got an order last week and another one coming. I got a bunch from Amazon and thrift books. I can't remember them all. I had a book buying moment. Lol Here are only three I can think of. Shame on me

Glass Sword (Red Queen, #2) by Victoria Aveyard Riders (Riders, #1) by Veronica Rossi After the Woods by Kim Savage and many more I have forgotten :-/. They are in stacks all over. Lol



Donna (BookDragonGirl) (bookdragongirl) Haha...I have those book buying moments, and then when they arrive I'm like "What? I ordered all these?!! Yay!!!"

M.J. Mandoki (mjmandoki) | 16 comments I agree. Those moments are great, but you will run out of shelf space. My husband is a cabinet maker. I keep bugging him about new shelf. However, soon, I will run out of space to put the shelves!

But not until at least next year for me ;)

There's Boston Book Fest every year! It's not super huge, but it's a really fun and free event, and they usually get some good YA authors. I met Libba Bray and Andrew Smith there at the most recent festival, and a couple years ago I met Kristin Cashore. :)

Rose (The_Calm_Reader) (roselittlebookowl75) | 1372 comments Yesterday I ordered Blue Lily, Lily Blue (The Raven Cycle, #3) by Maggie Stiefvater from Amazon in paperback to complete my collection as my goal is to finish series I already have this year! I'm currently reading The Raven Boys (The Raven Cycle, #1) by Maggie Stiefvater and loving it so, so much so want to read the series!

Also, on Kindle today I picked up The Girl In The Ice by Robert Bryndza for $.99! I just couldn't resist, looks like a great thriller!!

I'm shocked I dont have any of this series! I have the audios but really need the hardbacks for my library! Maybe after all my book fest shopping is done, I can concentrate on finishing my Lunar Chronicles collection (I'm missing Scarlet only) and then start on The Raven Boys series. I love those covers so much!!

Karen & Rose, have you read Shiver (The Wolves of Mercy Falls, #1) by Maggie Stiefvater I love that cover too. I always thought it would be pretty in a frame. The story is also so good as well.


Rose (The_Calm_Reader) (roselittlebookowl75) | 1372 comments @Kelly I haven't read Shiver but from what I've read of The Raven Boys series so far I'm thinking I will read her other series eventually!
