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!
I didn't get any books as gifts for Xmas, because here in Spain we give the gifts on Jan 6th, Twelfth Night, since our gifts are not brought by Santa but by the Three Magi.
But, I got myself a bunch of eBooks that were on sale on my Kindle app on Xmas day, and the next day two amazing surprises arrived for me in the mail!
Purchased (via Kindle app)
Given the Kindle sale, I took advantage of it to get the two first books in the Iron Fey series and the first book for the Read Discuss Repeat virtual book club!
The Iron King by Julie Kagawa
The Iron Daughter by Julie Kagawa
Into The Darkest Corner by Elizabeth Haynes
The Forgotten Ones by Laura Howard
All Truth That's In Me by Julie Berry
I was so immensely lucky to win a giveaway hosted by Jodi Meadows herself for an ARC copy of the final book in her trilogy, Infinite! And when it arrived in the post the day after Xmas I was beyond happy! I might have even done a lil happy dance! It's signed and it came with an epic amount of gorgeous swag! THANK YOU SO MUCH, JODI!!!
I still need the 3rd book in the Iron Fey series. And I'm so jealous that you got Infinite! It's one of those series that I got to read the first book as an e-galley, but not the 2nd one. I kinda wish when I do a good review of a series, that I would be on a list to then get the next e-galleys or ARCs automatically. Great haul this week! And so exciting to get Unhinged early!
ReplyDeleteI absolutely danced around the room when Jodi told me I had won her giveaway! I very rarely get paper ARCs so each one is a lil treasure!
DeleteYou are right, if a blogger gets an ARC from one book from a series, they ought to be autoapproved for the next books!
And I was super shocked & stoked that Unhinged arrived so early!!
So jealous about the ARC copy of Infinite! I read Incarnate this year and I absolutely loved it. It really surprised me how beautiful the story was and I absolutely love the covers of the whole series! Great haul :)

The Incarnate series is fantastic and Infinite was brilliant! I read it yesterday and I have a serious book hangover!
DeleteI feel the need to read SOMETHING by Julie Kagawa. I'll start with her Talon series. And ooo, Infinite! I haven't read any of the books in that series, but I have a signed ARC of Incarnate. It's pretty :D
ReplyDeleteThanks for visiting my blog!
