Thanks!!

Thanks!!

Ah okay, well which one did you win? lol
Yes, back in February I think, David was taking orders for anyone who wanted signed books now that he was back in the states. I ordered all 7 of the Country Saga and Dwellers books, and the first Nikki Powergloves for Tessa. Got half of them today!!

Tessa loves Nikki Powergloves, she's read them all! But we have them in ebook, so it will be nice for her to have a physical book! Signed no less!
And same for me, I have them all as ebooks, but I want them for my shelves! I've almost ordered them in paperback on Amazon numerous times, but I'm glad I waited for signed ones. So much more special :)

Ah yay Jenny! So glad you got *some of* your books. Hopefully the rest will come soon!
And Rose, I hope you get yours soon too! Should be any day now, every day someone else tells me they got their package :)

Yay! Thanks David!!!!

Oh ok, that definitely sounds more manageable! I bought the kindle version so it's a "manageable" size but one of my friends has the hardcover and it is so huge!

SIGNED DAVID ESTES BOOKS!!!!
This is my total natural look too, by the way. No makeup, sweatshirt and ripped jeans, hair thrown up quick kind of look. :)"
I'm so jealous! I'd love to have those in print! And no fair, you're not supposed to look that good with no effort.

I'm going to start the Star Dwellers today, but I don't have the Sun Dwellers OR the Earth Dwellers...

Love the haircut Jenny!

UnearthlyCrescendoOriginDays of Blood & Starlight
I got these in paperback:
FeverFull MoonShadow and Bone
I am in love with Books A Million now. I have never bought any books there before but they have such good prices! The most expensive book I bought was Days of Blood & Starlight and it was a whopping $5.97 in hardback. Most of the others were $3 or $4. I got so excited that I forgot that I already bought Shadow and Bone in ebook!

and found these at Goodwill - nice heavy paperbacks, 50th year edition



I also got something in the mail from Liz (booktube buddy), but I haven't opened it yet - waiting to do it on camera. She did a video about topics in books that make us uncomfortable, and I commented that I had

And I picked these up at Half Price Books, since our copies have either gone to live with kids or are completely falling apart -

I love going to Ollie's - sometimes they have some pretty good stuff and I almost always find a book I can't pass up. Goodwill is also an excellent place to find some good books. :)
I know there are some Half Price Books within about an hour from me - but I haven't been...yet!
