So here's what I got this week!
Borrowed from the library:
- We Beat the Street: how a friendship pact led to success by Drs. Sampson Davis, George Jenkins, and Rameck Hunt (for my NJ-teens booklist and also to booktalk at juvenile detention next week)
- The Unidentified by Rae Mariz
- Crescendo (Hush, Hush #2) by Becca Fitzpatrick (why didn't I cancel this when I got it for my nook?)
- Beautiful Darkness (by Kami Garcia & Margaret Stohl
- The Curse of the Wendigo (Monstrumologist #2) by Rick Yancey
- Awaken by Katie Kacvinsky
- Here Lies Bridget by Paige Harbison
- Reggie over at The Undercover Book Lover recently held a series of auctions to raise money for the Pakistan Flood Relief Fund (she raised $800!). I won the Lipstick Laws package, which included an autographed copy of the ARC and a ton of swag. The author, Amy Holder, actually emailed me not long ago, apologizing for the delay in shipping, but she wanted to make sure I got some good swag. Well, the package arrived today and It. Is. Awesome.
The swag included bookmarks, business cards, stickers, magnets, buttons, tattoos, 2 wax lips, lip gloss, lipstick, and a very nice note from Amy.
I am so excited to read this book, and super-excited to share it (and all the goodies) with my teens at the library!
What a week! What'd you get?
Enjoy your reading!
