Sounds like I need to make my reread of The Scorpio Races by Maggie Stiefvater my next audiobook! She had her own wonderful music at the end of The Raven Boys (The Raven Cycle, #1) by Maggie Stiefvater too.

Heather (hersecretsmile) | 290 comments I just bought The Eye of Minds (The Mortality Doctrine, #1) by James Dashner , A Mango-shaped Space by Wendy Mass , Happy Ever After (Bride Quartet, #4) by Nora Roberts , Bridget Jones's Diary (Bridget Jones, #1) by Helen Fielding and Avalon High by Meg Cabot . I got the last three for at most three dollars each, so I was definitely happy with my luck.

Jen (jenwesner) | 1222 comments Today I picked up these at Half Price Books -

Shiver (The Wolves of Mercy Falls, #1) by Maggie Stiefvater Linger (The Wolves of Mercy Falls, #2) by Maggie Stiefvater Forever (The Wolves of Mercy Falls, #3) by Maggie Stiefvater Steelheart (Reckoners, #1) by Brandon Sanderson The Hourglass Door (Hourglass Door, #1) by Lisa Mangum The Gates (Samuel Johnson, #1) by John Connolly

Steelheart was a find! HourGlass Door and Gates were each $1. The Mercy Falls books are all hardback and only cost $4.49 each. So I got all 3 for less than $15 - not a bad deal!

Oh, well that's where I saw it too, Jenny. Ha! I bet I glossed over the dates trying to get my copy that I've been putting off buying. Whew! I was afraid I was going to be too late.

Jenny (juliababyjen) | 12932 comments Mod
I hear you Karen! What I thought was just hilarious (being sarcastic) was I went through such a time trying to find the darn book, and everywhere I went, it wasn't in stock. I finally broke down and ordered it from Amazon about a month ago. I FINALLY read it on Monday, and it goes on sale on Tuesday for .99. REALLY??? The universe was trying to tell me something when I couldn't find it, I guess I just wasn't listening!

Karen’s Library | 11320 comments Mod
Oh wow, Jenny. That's too funny! It's been on my local Walmart's shelf forever it feels like. I know I've picked it up at least 6 different times trying to decide whether or not to put it in my cart or not. Haaha.. I kept putting it back on the shelf because I told myself no more books until I get the ones I already have read. Unless, of course, it's a whopping deal! OR one that just released that is a MUST have (like Allegiant!). I guess I listened to MY universe! For once! Hahahah...


Bridget's Quiet Corner  (chaptersandscreens) The Invention of Hugo Cabret by Brian Selznick ...was the last book I bought...but there were others a few days before that!
