Hey guys!
I'm so very excited for all the books I got this week. With it being Mother's Day, I felt the need to spoil myself a little bit, so I ordered some books. :) I can't wait to dig into them.  I was so excited to find Darkness Before Dawn in the mail, I've been drooling over that book for ages! I'm really excited about my Netgalley books, and the books from Scholastic as well. :)

What new books did you get this week??

And Happy Mother's Day fellow moms!

    I can't wait to read your review for Darkness Before Dawn. I think it sounds pretty good.

    Great haul this week. Very curious about this mother/daughter bookclub thing. Sounds fun.

  13. I enjoyed Sweet Evil and hope you do too! Release date of Darkness Before Dawn is slowly nearing - what a gorgeous cover.. Can't wait to read it! I hope COLS blows be away because COFA was a tad bit disappointing. Fingers crossed! Your NG books are GORGEOUS. *grabby hands* So tempted to grab them but my TBR pile vs Time graph is..not good LOL. Hope you enjoy all of these. Amazing!

    All Hail The Mail!

  15. So many fab books this week! I loved CoLS, and Darkness Before Dawn sounds amazing, hope you enjoy it! I'm sort of scared to read This is So Not Happening - was not a fan of the last book but I'm intrigued to see what'll happen next! Sweet Evil looks great too - happy reading! :)

  20. As I mentioned on Twitter, you got some great Mother's Day Haul, Christy. ;) I'd say you deserve it today of all days. I'm sure the Mother Daughter Book Club is going to be such fun, especially judging by the titles in the Scholastic bag. You enjoy all of your wonderful books, and Happy Mother's Day!
