Lots of book love this week! :D
Bought:
Shadow and Bone (The Grisha #1) by Leigh Bardugo
Vampire Academy (Vampire Academy #1) by Richelle Mead
Frostbite (Vampire Academy #2) by Richelle Mead
The Summoning (Darkest Powers Trilogy #1) by Kelley Armstrong
Once Burned (Night Prince #1) by Jeaniene Frost
I’ve read Shadow and Bone already and found it really, really, really predictable. However, I decided to buy the book (because of its awesome unique cover) and give it another chance.
I brought Vampire Academy and Frostbite because I never read the Vampire Academy series and since it’s so popular, I want to try it out and find out what all the hype is about.
As for Once Burned, it is a birthday gift from my little sister – only a month and a couple of days too late. Still, I love Vlad.
Borrowed:
Black City (Black City #1) by Elizabeth Richards
Ten by Gretchen McNeil
I just had to try Black City because of its gorgeous cover (although I heard some not so-great things about the book) and for Ten, a book about murder? I’m so sold.
What books did you guys get this cold week? Link me!
I have been dying to read Shadow and Bone and Once Burned. Have fun reading.
Eeeepp, I seriously need to get Shadow and Bone already! And I heard Ten is super freaky and Black City is really good. :D
oh you had some great books! I liked the first VA, I need to read the second one now. Happy reading!
here is mine
Awesome books! I loved the Vampire Academy series and hope you enjoy reading it, too. Thanks for stopping by!
Love the VA series, the summoning and Once Burned! :) And I have Black City and shadow and bone, but need to read them. Awesome haul and I hope you enjoy!

My Haul!
I thought Ten was fun. I didn’t think it was super scary, and I did guess who the “bad guy” was, but I really enjoyed reading it. I hope you do too :)
I keep hearing how good Vampire Academy is, but I haven’t read any. I should look into them. I hear the series actually gets better the more books you read.
I do want to read Shadow and Bone (I like the cover, too), but just haven’t gotten there yet. Sorry you found it predictable.
Happy reading :)
I can’t wait to read Black City! I read the first Vampire Academy book a while back and I thought it was okay. I heard that the series keeps getting better though. :)

I really need to read the VA series and The Summoning. Great haul.
Happy reading.

I loved Shadow & Bone and Once Burned! Such good books! You have some amazing books to read this week! I hope you enjoy them all =)
Your new books are AWESOME! I loved Shadow and Bone, Black City, and Ten, all so much! I’m sorry you weren’t crazy about Shadow and Bone though. :( That’s a bummer. But I agree that the cover is insanely gorgeous!

The Summoning was a pretty good book. Can’t wait to see what you think of Ten :)
