Showcase Sunday #21!


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!

This week I got a fair bunch of books, and quite a mix of purchased and for review, with some very cool approvals on NetGalley this week!


Purchased (via The Book Depository)

I wanted to get all the Cahill Witches books in paperback so I'd have the matching covers, and the first one arrived this week!




Born Wicked by Jessica Spotswood


Purchased (via Kindle app)



Spring Fevers (An Anthology) edited by Matt Sinclair



The Bone Season by Samantha Shannon


The War Inside by M Kircher



Howling For You by Chloe Neill


For Review (via Xpresso Book Tours)

A rather bad photo, but I got the ARC for the second book in the Hidden series and since the cover has not been revealed I didn't want to risk the final cover being similar to the one that the ARC has!


Broken Bargain by Clare Davidson


For Review (via NetGalley)

I want to say a big big THANK YOU to Strange Chemistry for its auto-approval on NetGalley, again! And a big THANK YOU too to Entangled Publishing!




Such Sweet Sorrow by Jenny Trout


What all did you guys get this week?

  1. Born Wicked and The Bone Season are both on my TBR pile, looking forward to start them as I not only love the covers but heard a lot of good about both.
    Happy reading!

    1. Born Wicked is great, this is one of the few series about witches that I really like! The Bone Season I've heard so many good things about, I had to grab it when I saw it quite cheap on my Kindle app!
      Thank you, Ula!

  2. I really enjoyed the Bone Season and am super curious to see what you make of The 57 Lives.. since it's being published by Strange Chemistry and they always churn out gems. Great haul!

    1. Thank you, Antara! I was so happy when I found it as part of Bloggers' options, cause I'm not too good at customizing things!
      The cover for Such Sweet Sorrow is stunning, and I loved the idea of mixing different Shakespeare's characters!
