This has been a seriously stressful/busy week for me (as the lack of posts demonstrate!) but it has all been made right by a few new gems I got. I just wanted to say Hello! to the few new followers from this week, and let you know there is usually more going on!

 I have not bought any new books in, say, 3 weeks? So this week – even though I only got a few – was absolutely fantastic.  Not to mention they are books I have wanted for a while!  Soo… here they are:

  • 13 to Life by Shannon Delany – I Hmmed and Hawed over getting this at full price at Foyle, but the Ann Aguirre quote at the back sold it!
  • Raised by Wolves by Jennifer Lynn Barnes
  • Dark Life by Kat Falls – Has a lovely quote on the cover by Jenny over at Wondrous Reads!
  • Doubleblind by Ann Aguirre
  • Wanderlust by Ann Aguirre – Yay for Sirantha Jax!  I absolutely adored Grimspace, and just had to get the next books.  The covers are so flippin’ gorgeous – whenever they get around to making the UK editions, I hope they keep them! Wanderlust is in my bag as we speak!

I also got a fantastic Book Journal made by Moleskine that keeps track of thoughts about the books you read.  My motivation for getting is that – although I review books on DBD – I don’t always remember my off-the-bat opinions about the book.  Also, for the books that I read that I think y’all might not be interested in, I have a place to keep a review for myself!  It is really nice – and while I do see some potential issues with the alphabetization system that it has – I am looking forward to filling it up!

So, that’s this week!  What did y’all get?
