Catherine Bruno | 771 comments I returned Passenger to the library cause I bought a copy instead. I have to read a book for a class I'm teaching and I thought I'd be distracted by hit since I was getting into it. Besides I can get it signed at YallWest.

I went to the library today! Haven't been in there for almost 2 months (maybe more!) because I'm trying to read books I already own! But I went in for the Glittering Court...and ended up with 3 other books instead! They have so many new releases I want to read! Here's what I picked up:

Rebel of the Sands (Rebel of the Sands, #1) by Alwyn Hamilton A Tyranny of Petticoats 15 Stories of Belles, Bank Robbers & Other Badass Girls by Jessica Spotswood Calamity (Reckoners, #3) by Brandon Sanderson

I'm trying to finish up series right now, and I thought Calamity was the final book in the series, but looking at it now, I don't think it is. Ah, well, I still wanted to read it!

Yeah, exactly! I didn't FORBID myself in going to the library, in fact, I knew I'd probably go this month and get a few books, because there are so many new releases I want to get my hands on!

And looking at reviews of Calamity, I guess I was wrong, it does look like the final book of the series! YAY!

I was checking my community library today (for work actually doing an inspection of the building) and found a pristine hardcopy of Written in My Own Heart's Blood (Outlander, #8) by Diana Gabaldon !!

Our library is one of those, leave a book, take a book... So I grabbed it and I'll drop off a few books in exchange. ;)
