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 another somewhat quiet on the book front, at least till the end of the book when I ended up getting a few more eBooks than expected! I was also approved for a quite awaited book on NetGalley (thank you, Flux Books!!) and got my parcel from Book Outlet with two first books!
Purchased (via Book Outlet)
I'm quite glad to finally have Hemlock, so I can start that series (I had gotten the sequel first for some strange reason aka my brain not working right) and I also I'm happy to say I now own the beautiful hardcover of Incarnate (you cannot hug Kindle books the same way!)!
Incarnate by Jodi Meadows
Hemlock by Kathleen Peacock
Purchased (via Kindle app)
I only had one book preordered, but ended up buying a pair more that I blame on the ladies at The Midnight Garden!
In The End by Demitria Lunetta
All-of-a-Kind Family by Sydney Taylor
Cuckoo Song by Frances Hardinge
Purchased (via Smashwords)
After reading the review for this one at Ula's Blog of Erised I decided it was a book I wanted to read!
The Fox's Mask by Anna Frost
For Review (via NetGalley)
The Last Changeling by Chelsea Pitcher
Signed Swag
I got in the mail a fantastic The Art of Lainey signed postcard! Not only signed by Paula Stokes but also Micah, Lainey and Bianca! THANK YOU SO MUCH PAULA!!
And that's all for this week! What all did you guys get this week?
Incarnate is an absolutely beautiful book - both the story and the cover! The Last Changeling looks intriguing will definitely check it out! :) Great haul!

I adore the entire Incarnate trilogy, that's why I'm getting all the hardcovers now!
DeleteThank you Becca!
Awww, so nice of the author to send you a signed postcard! Now how about you send her back your cupcakes? :P Hopefully they have cupcake courriers in the mail? ^^
ReplyDeleteAnd that cover of the Cuckoo Song scared the lights out of me D: That cover is fantastic but super creepy. Didn't your heart leap up to your throat? O_O And I hope you enjoy In the End... I wasn't really impressed but here's to hoping you get a positive experience!

I still haven't read you review of it or many others to not influence my reading... Hopefully I'll get to it this week!
DeleteI wish I could safely ship cupcakes internationally!! I'd be shipping them not only to authors but also to my fellow bloggers!! ;)
And yep, Cuckoo Song's cover is creepy as hell!! Not one to see with half light at night!
Great haul! And. Hurray for Incarnate! :D I love that book!
ReplyDeleteAll I got this week was some signed bookmarks, so I was going to wait till next week to do my post. I'm planning on buying some stuff with the Amazon GC I got! :D
Incarnate and the whole trilogy really, are amazing indeed!
DeleteOooh Amazon GC? Books, books, books! =D
I LOVED HEMLOCK SO MUCH!! And I enjoyed In the End, but I didn't think it was quite as awesome as the first book. An excellent book though. I hope you enjoy all of your new books, Pili! Have a wonderful week - and I hope To All the Boys went well ;D
ReplyDeleteThanks for visiting my blog!
