Showcase Sunday is hosted by Vicky @Books, Biscuits, and Tea and Stacking the Shelves is hosted by Tynga's Reviews and they both give bloggers the opportunity to share the books they have received in the past week.
This week had quite a lot of goodreads drama. Whilst I still plan on using goodreads I have also joined BookLikes which is very awesome and I will now start linking to in reviews as well as goodreads, amazon and amazon UK. If you are a member of BookLikes then please follow me and if you aren't I fully recommend joining.
I am only accepting a few review requests which means I only have a handful of books this week. They are all awesome to it is definitely quality over quantity this week. As always if you click on the book cover you will be taken to its Amazon page.
Review
Ebooks
I received a request for this awesome sounding NA contemporary romance that releases September 24th. It is not yet on Amazon so if you want to find out more about the book you can go to its page on the author's website.
Paperbacks
I was lucky enough to receive a UK arc of Perfect Ruin by Lauren DeStefano from the lovely people at Harper Voyager. I loved Lauren's Chemical Garden series so I can't wait to see what this new book will be like.
NetGalley/Edelweiss
Ok so I may have broken my netgalley diet again, I promise to start it again from now! I got three amazing books so it is hard to feel guilty :P I also got an amazing surprise of an email from edelweiss approving me to read Red Hill by Jamie McGuire :D

A while back I read and loved Eversea by the amazing Natasha Boyd. As she was sending me a paperback of her book to send to a giveaway winner she also sent a signed personalised copy for myself :D This is now happily in pride of place in my bookshelves as there is also a snippet of my review in there AND I am mentioned in the acknowledgements :)

Great book haul! I am a NetGalley glutton. I almost request Red Hill, but I restrained myself. I just have too many others to read I can't wait to hear what you think.
ReplyDeleteOnly For You sounds really interesting! I can't wait to read Perfect Ruin! Enjoy your week Laura x
ReplyDeleteI'm a NetGalley/Edelweiss addict as well. Red Hill sounds really good and creepy. I'm hoping that I will like it.
