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 was a bit more quiet on the book front, but that doesn't mean that I didn't get any books, just not as many as the past weeks! Still, I got some really cool books!
I finally got my preorder of Hexed by Michelle Krys that I had won in a giveaway (THANK YOU NOVA)!! I really cannot wait to read this one, hopefully soon!
And I also got myself a signed copy of Threats of Sky and Sea by Jennifer Ellision after reading and loving an ARC for the blog tour!
Jennifer also sent me some amazing swag! That cover is gorgeous and that blue is my favourite colour! Thank you so much!
Purchased (via Kindle app)
Ruin & Rising by Leigh Bardugo
As You Turn Away by Molli Moran
For Review (via NetGalley)
Thank you so much Harlequin Teen for the approvals on these!
Lies We Tell Ourselves by Robin Talley
Rain by Amanda Sun
And that's all for this week! Quite a nice haul after all!
What all did you guys get this week?
Ack! Signed books are the best :D Enjoy Pili. <3 Such gorgeous books too, hih. I'm also excited about Hexed. Really hope it's a good book :) You must let me know once you read it ;p Happy reading sweetie. <3
ReplyDeleteYes, yes they are! Signed books are awesome!
DeleteI hope I can get to read Hexed soon sweetie! I'll let you know once I do!
Well, I've already devoured Ruin and Rising, and am still in meltdown, but I've heard wonderful things about Threats of Sky and Sea, and given our mutual love of the Grisha and DoSB, I can't wait to hear what you think about it. Maybe there will be some fabulous blue cupcakes is your future . . . hmmm . . . ;)
ReplyDeleteI have my review up already for the blog tour Jessica, it was a great fantasy book and you really ought to check it out!
DeleteAnd you know, Blue Velvet cupcakes doesn't sound like a bad idea! Hmmmm...
Hexed is totally on my wish list! I hope you love it! I am ashamed to say I haven't read anything of Leigh Bardugo's yet.. but I plan to remedy that.. . at some point! :D
ReplyDeleteLove your lil lamby! :D
Thanks April! I love my Dylan too! =D
DeleteOoooh, if you like fantasy you will love the Grisha books! They're the perfect mix of fantasy with what would seems historical details with slavic (mostly Russian) inspiration peppered all over!
SO EXCITED FOR RUIN AND RISING! I'll definitely dish with you, once I've read it. Hopefully soon. Ahhh, we've waited so long for it!
ReplyDeleteThanks for visiting my blog! Have an awesome week, Pili!
Alyssa @ The Eater of Books!
Having someone to discuss the spoilers as they happen, you'll need! *badly done Yoda speak*
DeleteRead it as a treat once you finish your last exam next Friday! ;)
Oooh how beautiful is the cover to Rain? I hope it's going to be better than the previous one, the heroine really irritated me in the first book. I'm really curious about The Lies we Tell ourselves, hope you enjoy it!
ReplyDeleteThat cover is gorgeous, isn't it? I'm really hoping this one will be better too, Jeann! The teen angst in the romance was what killed the book for me!
DeleteThanks Jeann!
Cannot wait to see what you think of Hexed! :D I still haven't read it yet even though I got a copy and I am a little vary about how I will feel about it.
ReplyDeleteAlso YAY for The Lies We Tell Ourselves! I am still waiting for a response on EW and am hoping I'll get approved .-.
I am definitely curious to see what you'll think of As You Turn Away because I have had that on my tbr for some time now and even though I really want to read it, I am worried I won't like it.
Happy reading, Pili!! :)
Rashika @ The Social Potato
I'm keeping my fingers crossed so you'll get approved for Lies We Tell Ourselves, Rashika!
DeleteI think I might be reading Hexed this week, we'll see as I still am recovering from the Ruin & Rising hangover!
As You Turn Away... I might take a while till I try to read it, cause I'm not sure if I'm emotionally ready for it!
Thank you, Rashika!!
RUIN AND RISING PILI!!!!! I can't wait to get myself a copy and dive in. I've been kept from Mal and the Darkling for too long:) Can't wait to compare notes with you. I'm super excited to see what you think of Threats of Sky and Sea as well, I've been wanting that one since I saw its gorgeous cover. Enjoy all your amazing books:)
ReplyDeleteI cannot wait to see what you think of it, Jenny! Feel free to send me a DM or a tweet if you feel like you need to talk spoilers with someone, cause trust me, you'll need to!!
DeleteAnd I already loved and reviewed Threats of Sky & Sea, a great fantasy that I do recommend!
Thank you, Jenny!
Great haul! I still need to read Ink. I didn't do a Sunday post this week, resting from surgery. But I'll have a double one to do next weekend!
ReplyDeleteThank you, Lisa! I hope you're recoving well from your surgery!!
DeleteWooo for Ruin and Rising! :) I have seen so many people haul this, this week!
ReplyDeleteI have seen Hexed around a lot lately and I look forward to your thoughts in it. It is supposed to be really good!

The cover of Threats of Sky and Sea is so pretty. That blue is gorgeous! Ruin of Rising looks amazing (of course) and Lies We Tell Ourselves looks like one I could love. This is a pretty good haul. :)
ReplyDeleteThreats of Sky and Sea is gorgeous and also a great read!
DeleteThank you Kaitlin!
Yay for such awesome books, Pili! I hope you enjoy them all, Ruin and Rising most of all. And wow, that cover of Threats and Sky and Sea is pretty O_O I mean I saw its cover on NG, but it's different up close and personal.
