The best feature of the arrival of the weekend: I get all the time to read. No school, no distractions. Yay.
Lately, I've been in the mood for historical fiction, which is why five of these books are all in that genre. One thing I noticed, though, was that I shouldn't read a historical fiction book on a topic I'm familiar with. Usually, the author gets all the facts wrong, and I just end up going on an angry rampage that I'm not too proud of.
Anyways, here is my loot:
From Library:
1- Perfect Ruin, by Lauren Destefano
2- A Northern Light, by Jennifer Donnelly
3- A Darkness Strange and Lovely, by Susan Dennard
4- Angel Burn, by L.A. Weatherly
5- Out of the Easy, by Ruta Sepetys (review to come!)
From Netgalley:
Lady Thief, by A.C. Gaughen
Bought:
1- Pivot Point, by Kasie West
2- The Bronte Sisters: Three Novels (It basically has one novel from each sister- all in one collection. How cool is that?)
3- Elixir, by Jennifer L. Armentrout
3- Elixir, by Jennifer L. Armentrout
So there you have it. I'm pretty sure my librarian hates me, because I'm always hoarding all the new books. Sigh. Book blogger problems.
What did you get this week?

Perfect Ruin! Have heard so many great things about it. Also need to check out Pivot Point, everyone seems to have read it. I only got one book this week. I need to catch up with my reviews before I request any more. ;)
ReplyDeleteoooh I really want to read Perfect Ruin! Also, A Northern Light has been sitting on my shelf for ages! I keep meaning to read it. Great Haul!
ReplyDeleteI wasn't planning on commenting, but then I saw you had Angel Burn in your stack! I hope you love it, Summer. It's one of my favorite angel books. The sequel was disappointing, but it was sooo good. I'll be reading the end of the trilogy hopefully soon. I hope you enjoy Perfect Ruin as well. It sounds like it will be amazing!
