Nothing like new Books...

There is nothing like new books; book mail is definitely the best mail. This month I purchased seven new books. Some as part of a series and some just stand alones.

This month I purchased several books form Book Depository (my favorite place to buy books) and Ollie's Discount Warehouse and Target. I paid under 50$ for all seven of the books you see in the pictures above.

Here is the list of the books purchased:
1) Falling Kingdoms (Book #1) by Morgan Rhodes
2) Gathering Darkness (Book #3) by Morgan Rhodes
3) Stormbringers (Order of Darkness #2) by Philippa Gregory
4) The Bazaar of Bad Dreams by Stephen King
5) Mayhem by Sarah Pinborough
6) The Poet by Michael Connelly
7) A Gift to Remember by Melissa Hill

Lord of Shadows Cover Reveal

Go on and get your Fangirl screams and squeaks out of the way....because we now have the official cover for book two of the Dark Artifices Series by Cassandra Clare. Lord of Shadows is set to be released on 5/23/2017.

Here is the synopsis:
Emma Carstairs has finally avenged her parents. She thought she’d be at peace. But she is anything but calm. Torn between her desire for her parabatai Julian and her desire to protect him from the brutal consequences of parabatai relationships, she has begun dating his brother, Mark. But Mark has spent the past five years trapped in Faerie; can he ever truly be a Shadowhunter again?

And the faerie courts are not silent. The Unseelie King is tired of the Cold Peace, and will no longer concede to the Shadowhunters’ demands. Caught between the demands of faerie and the laws of the Clave, Emma, Julian, and Mark must find a way to come together to defend everything they hold dear—before it’s too late.

Bookish, Cute but single...Where is my bookish Prince Charming?

It is because of Images like these that I am probably still single. Where are the men that will just follow you around the book store, carry your selections and have endless conversations with you about good books?
I have only dated one guy that was a real avid reader. Though we preferred different genres. He read histories and biographies and very little fiction. While I read a little bit of everything. That relationship was probably one of the best; because the conversations where always great. Funny and intellectual. It's not that I could not have that with a guy that is not as much of a reader as me but it is harder. Or perhaps I am just picky. Who knows. But if anyone happens across a cute book worm; who happens to be 6 foot or better with a nice smile then send him my email! Just kidding! (Or am I)
