Showcase Sunday #44!!


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!

It's been a pair of weeks at least till I managed to work on a SS post and I have waaay to many eBook accumulated (SO MANY PREORDERS for August 5th and also for this past Thursday!!) so instead I will be focusing on all the amazing physical books and swag and other awesomeness that I picked up yesterday at the post office!!



Purchased (via The Book Depository)


I got 4 lovely books that I will be giving away, GoTaS giveaway will be up tonight itself and the other three will be part of my birthday giveaway!




The Art of Lainey by Paula Stokes
The Winner's Curse by Marie Rutkoski
A Mad Wicked Folly by Sharon Biggs Waller

I have been so very lucky as of late, winning giveaways and a few of the prizes arrived this week! I picked them all up at the post office yesterday. I won Guy in Real Life from Adriana at Reading Fictional and Unravel from its blog tour hosted by The Unofficial Addiction Book Fan Club. Thank you so much ladies!!

Bookish Swag won in a giveaway


I was extremely lucky to win an international giveaway at The Midnight Garden for a Throne of Glass tote and a ton of swag! Some signed, some not and some super adorable TMG buttons and bookmark! Thank you SO MUCH Wendy!!








Purchased on Etsy


I've already told you about the very awesome hand painted bookish totes from Pivot Book Totes, and I want to show off the latest ones I got this week!






And this is all for this week! I was quite overwhelmed when I went to pick up everything at the post office, and I'm still missing some of my preorders, mainly Dangerous Boys by Abigail Haas.

What all did you guys get this week?

  1. Curious to see what you think of Gates of Thread and Stone, reviews having been pretty mixed so far. Haven't read the books, but love the Anna and Deception totes!
