It rained on Halloween – that was exciting! It wasn’t much, but every bit helps for the drought I guess. This week has been a challenging one, and I’m not sure how much I’ll be able to be present on the blog this week. Books have been a good distraction though, so let’s focus on that for now.
Books in the mail:
Loop by Karen Akins – Surprise in the mail. I’ve already read this but didn’t have a hard copy. It’s a really fun time travel romance.
In the Afterlight by Alexandra Bracken – The final book in The Darkest Minds trilogy. I tried to capture the rainbow of colors in the book cover- it’s very pretty in person!
eBooks for review:
When Joss Met Matt by Ellie Cahill (Liz Czukas) – A NA book about friends with benefits that want more.
Merry Christmas, Baby by Jill Shalvis – A Lucky Harbor holiday novella.
Every Last Promise by Kristen Halbrook – A witness to sexual assault decides whether to keep quiet or come forward.
99 Days by Katie Cotugno – Set in the 99 days of summer before college- a girl is tortured by a relationship gone wrong and two brothers are involved.
Invincible by Amy Reed – A girl with terminal cancer gets a second chance to live.
Library Audiobooks:
How to Build a Girl by Caitlin Moran, read by Louise Brealey – A 90s era humorous coming of age.
Althea & Oliver by Cristina Maracho, read by Jorjeana Marie – Another 90s era coming of age! This one is about messy friendships.
Revolution by Deborah Wiles, read by Stacey Aswad, Francois Battiste, J. D. Jackson, Robin Miles – This is the second book in the Sixties trilogy, and since I liked the first book Countdown a lot – Revolution is set in “Freedom Summer” 1964 Mississippi. This book is a finalist for the National Book Award.

LOOP caught my eye. I love time travel stories but never read enough of them. I have an audiobook that might interest you for review:

All lovely, but the audiobooks really caught my eye! Enjoy 🙂
Always nice to receive a surprise in the mail – especially when it’s a book you liked but don’t have a print copy. Enjoy your new books!
Yay for the rain but boo for the challenging week. I loved Revolution – the audio production is fantastic.
I almost requested the Lucky Harbor novella because I just haven’t been able to get enough Lucky Harbor lately, but I haven’t read Chloe’s story yet!
Enjoy your goodies!
Happy reading
I have yet to read anything by Jill Shalvis, but I plan to do so…someday!
Enjoy your books…and here are MY WEEKLY UPDATES
Hope you enjoy your new books!
I don’t know any of these books, but Invincible sure has a pretty cover on it.
The cover of Revolution looks cute too.
ENJOY your books and your reading week.

My Mailbox Monday
Ooh nice book haul this week. I am really behind in my Jill Shalvis books but I do like her stuff. How to Build A Girl looks fun, too!
