Showcase Sunday is a weekly meme hosted by Vicky @ Books, Biscuits & Tea. The aim of this event is to showcase our newest books or book related swag and to see what everyone else received for review, borrowed from libraries, bought in bookshops and downloaded onto eReaders this week. For more information about how this feature works and how to join in, click here.
Happy Sunday, everyone.
This week would have been a very quiet one–if not for a couple of AWESOME packages I got in the post (Wednesday & yesterday)
Read on to see what was inside it.
BOUGHT:
Both of these were freebies for my Kindle from Amazon.
GIFTED/WON/LOANED:
So, I got this AWESOME bundle of books from the equally awesome Katherine Skye after she’d taken a look at my Goodreads wishlist and realised she had quite a few I wanted. Included were:
Enthralled by Melissa Marr + others
City of Bones by Cassandra Clare
Anna Dressed in Blood by Kendare Blake
And as if those weren’t enough, she also sent me a bunch of swag (
)! AND a BUNCH of Wonka candy!!!!!!!!!!!!! If you want all the pics of the candy, though, you’ll have to go to my other blog.
Below is the swag. HUGE thanks to Katherine.
AAAAAAAAAAAND onto a package that arrived yesterday with three little words on the outside: SPENCER HILL PRESS. Check out the goods:
That’s not all. Lookie:

Did you hear screaming early yesterday morning? You did? There’s a chance that was me!
I did a happy dance that involved waving the books around and jiggling my hips. Even woke up my teenage son to show him my happy dance and the reason for it (yeah, he was happy about that–not!), and then spent the following seconds … minutes … hours … grinning like a total imbecile.
For those who’ve never heard of Jennifer L. Armnetrout (O_O), the books showcased are:
I can not express how happy I am to receive them.
Another one I’m seriously looking forward to. Shadowborn is #2 in the Lila Gray trilogy. I absolutely loved the first one: The Glass Man (see sidebar under upcoming giveaways). Thanks J.Taylor Publishing for this!
And that’s it.
