Showcase Sunday #7!!





Showcase Sunday is a weekly feature hosted by Vicky of Books, Biscuits, and Tea where all book lovers can share with others what bookish goodness we got this week, be it purchased (physical or eBook), won, gifted or for review!


Purchased (via Kindle App)

This week I had no preorders, and all the books were on recommendation, the Stacia Kane ones after reading a review of one of the books of that series from Maja from the Noctural Library



 Unholy Ghosts by Stacia Kane



Finding Magic by Stacia Kane

 
 And the next one came highly recommended from Stacee from Adventures of a Book Junkie and I will be reading it along next month with Kristen from My Friends Are Fiction!





For Review (via NetGalley)



Resist by Sarah Crossan
 


Earthbound by Aprilynne Pike


For Review (via Edelweiss)

This past week I finally managed to get around to finally dedicating time to read Ink Scratchers's blog post about Edelweiss, so I've finally requested books there! So far I have to hear from 5 and already got a rejection, but also got my first ARC!


White Space by Ilsa J. Bick


Another nice week for me, and now I feel much better since I can request ARCs on Edelweiss too!

What all did you guys get this week? Hope you had a good week!

  1. Congrats for venturing into Edelweiss. I like their selection. I have a 50/50 chance of approval there typically. I am so excited you are reading Resist. I've seen a ton of people have that one and I need to know how it is. Of course I've not read the first book yet.

    I'll pick up Distance Between Us next week or so. Probably read along mid month? that work? Super excited for our non-contemp selves to read it together!

    1. Thanks Kris! I liked Breathe, even if it was not mindblowing, but I'm curious enough to see how it continues!

      Mid-month sounds great! That way I'll probably have gone through all the 3rd releases I'm awaiting! And yep, super excited to do the read-along!

    1. Edelweiss was so confusing at first for me! I'm getting the hang of it now, if only I could get requests approved now! ;)

      I hope I'll like TDBU!

    1. I still need to get through quite a few books before I read either of those! Breathe was an entertaining read but not spectacular, still I want to know what happens next!
