Showcase Sunday is hosted by the lovely Vicky over at Books, Biscuits, and Tea! It's a great way to share what you have received the past week and to also gush over the wonderful books to other bloggers have added to their bookshelves!
Bev's New Books:
For review
Ferryman by Claire McFall: This is by a Scottish author and it sounds like a really complex, intriguing story. It deals with life after death and I can't wait to start it. Thank you, Templar Publishing!
For review via Netgalley
Crow Girl by Kate Cann: This is a book which tries to encourage people who don't like reading to pick up a book so I've been warned the writing will be of a lower standard. I'm still intrigued as to how this will be dealt with.
Jen's Books
Umm.. yeah. BOOK OVERLOAD. Did I mention how busy I was? I guess I'm just prepping for my 2 week break in December. ;) WHAT CAN I SAY. I'm a book addict. What about you? Don't judge.

I really want to read Flawed! I hadn't realized that it was out now! Good to know :) Also, Long Lankin and Shadow & Bone are ones that I need to get to reading. Great haul this week ladies!
ReplyDeleteTiger Lily and Shadow & Bone are both SO GOOD! I loved them, so I can't WAIT to see what you think! :) Amazing haul this week, ladies! :D
ReplyDeleteHoly cow! That's a lotta books between you two! LOOOOVED Tiger Lily! And still must read Amanda Hocking's books! Have soooo many of hers and only read one of them! Happy Reading!
ReplyDeleteMy STS will be up tomorrow, so be sure to stop by!
Have a GREAT weekend!
Old Follower :)
Ooh Jen you got a ton of books!! I loved Shadow and Bone, Wake, and Keep Holding On! You. Will. LOVE THEM and I hope you enjoy!!! <3 and BEV FERRYMAN LOOKS SOOO COOL I hope you love that too! <333
ReplyDeleteAh, I'm so jealous of the two weeks break, Jen! ;) Oh well, it seems like the best thing to do is to stock up books early, just like what you did! ;) I can't wait to hear what you think of Flawed, I sort of have mixed feeling about that book. Everyone seems to love Shadow and Bone, hope you'll like it as well! I can't wait to read your reviews of other books as well! <3
ReplyDeleteI like the title of Crow Girl, I hope you'll enjoy it, Bev! Ferryman sounds very strange, but I'm curious about the life after death thing. :)
Happy reading, girls! <3
I didn't know Flawed was out already! I definitely need to head over to Amazon and get a copy. Also, Susane Colasanti. Fantastic choice, she's incredible and I really hope you enjoy those books!
ReplyDeleteHappy reading to both of you! (:
What a great week for you two! And Jen, thanks for the comment on my accent :)
ReplyDeleteI want to read some Susanne Colasanti - I hope you enjoy the three you got!
Ferryman looks pretty cool, I just love the title! And Jen, was there anything left in your library after you were done? :)) I liked Wake a lot, although many people didn't agree,and I only ever read one book by Susane Colasanti, but I really liked it.
ReplyDeleteHappy reading, girls!
Wow, that's an enormous haul! And yay for Article 5! :) I SO need to read that one.
ReplyDeleteOh nice haul! Shadow and Bone and Long Lankin are so good! I also loved Keep Holding on! Great haul this week!
ReplyDeleteUm ladies I always extremely look forward to your book hauls and yet again this is an epic one! I think I should give Crow Girl to my sister as I have to force books on her all the time! Jen your book haul this week reminded me of my haul last week, I think I went a bit overboard with library books too! I love how you had a splurge with Colasanti's books, I read Keep Holding On and loved it, so really need to get to her others. Also yay for Flawed, I LOVED that book it's a book which will stay with you days afterwards! Hope you both enjoy your books! :)
ReplyDeleteGreat books! Crow Girl looks interesting, despite it apparently having a lower standard of writing. I guess that it is refreshing to read something light once in a while! Happy reading, Beverley! :)
ReplyDeleteWow, Jen, so many amazing books! I am dying to read Wake and Tiger Lily, they sound like such good stories. Article 5 looks good too, hurrah for dystopian! :D My sister has The Land of Stories... I might borrow it from her soon...
Enjoy your books, both of you <3
I read a Kate Cann book years ago, but I can't remember what the writing was like. Ooh and I'm super pleased to see Shadow and Bone there. It is one of my absolute favourite books of the year. I am literally counting down the days to the sequel. ;) Ferryman is new to me so I must go and investigate!
ReplyDeleteEnjoy!
Bev I love the cover on Crow Girl, I'll be interested to hear what you think of it.
ReplyDeleteOh my lord, Jen! I think you did get a little bit crazy with the books, lol! You won't have time to eat, drink, or sleep with all those reads. I hope you enjoy Charade. As you know I did. I want to read Article 5 too, and I guess the sequel should be out soon, so no having to try and recall details from a book you read a year ago. Yay!
Enjoy all your reads, ladies. :)
Flawed and Indigo Awakening both look really good. I hope you enjoy them. :) And while I didn't really like The Thing About the Truth & Wake I hope you enjoy them. Shadow and Bone was amazing though. <3
ReplyDeleteEnjoy your books! ^__^
My Haul
JEN!!! WE MUST DISCUSS AFTER YOU FINISH SHADOW & BONE!!!
ReplyDeleteAnd Ferryman sounds super interesting, Bev!
Enjoy your new reads, Ladies!
BEVVV!!! Ferryman sounds AWESOMEEEE!!!!
ReplyDeleteJENNNNN!!! I LOVE YOUR BOOKS! I see some amazing contemps :) Hope you likeee them! I seem to be enjoying contemps a lot more lately, so I hope they're all fantastic :)
ENJOY GUYS!!<3
The cover from Crow Girl is so pretty!
ReplyDeleteTIGER LILY, OH MY GOSH. I love that book so much. Hearbreaking, beautiful and one of the best fairytale retellings I have ever read (and perhaps you know that I read many ;))
Wake, Land of stories, Shadow and bone (on the shelves, I better get reading soon), Article 5, Keep holding on, Indigo.... Freaking awesome haul!
Happy reading :D
Mel@thedailyprophecy.
Whoa Jen! Look at your book haul! Well done my friend, well done! I can't wait to see what you think of Shadow and Bone, I absolutely ADORED that book and cannot wait for the next one. I'm really looking forward to Indigo Awakening too, I have that on my list for next week. So much good stuff, enjoy!
ReplyDeleteAh! Ah! Ah! Tiger Lily! I have been meaning to get my hands on that for so long, I keep hearing amazing things about it. You will likely push me over the edge if you love it, Jen ;) SHADOW AND BONE. READ IT NOW, READ IT NOOOOW. And don't tell me by the end of the book that you aren't at least a TINY bit torn between Mal and The Darkling :D
ReplyDeleteWhoa, and I just read the summary for Ferryman. How have I never heard of this before? SUPER INTRIGUED.
I hope you ladies enjoy your fabulous new books!
