This week in my mailbox:

Ash by Malinda Lo...I am super excited to read this one, Ash was brought to my attention by the lovely Amparo Ortiz at No Rest For the Lazy.

The Iron King is on my 2010 debut authors reading list so I felt a little less guilty buying this one. Just a little.
Forgive My Fins by Tera Lynn Childs, well this one I just couldn't resist! I mean look at this droolworthy cover!

As you can see I am super weak when it comes to my book purchases. I have now stooped to hiding them and slipping them onto the bookshelf when no one is looking just like I do when I buy a new purse or shoes. (I know terrible isn't it?)

Have a great week everyone!

LOL - I know just how you feel! I try to buy my books when I know no one will be home :)

These 3 all look terrific! Enjoy :)

Wow! Great covers!

Ash just draws you in and makes you want to read it! I'll have to check those books out.

Phew... and here I thought I was the only sneak! Ahhh, I'm not alone after all! :D

And when asked, "Where did those shoes (books, movies...)come from?" I'm always, like... "Oh, I can't remember. I bought them sometime back." *Grins*

Dude... I hide my books too. Man book purchases make me feel guilty, cause I don't really have the money to be buying them...and yet, I do.

These books all look great. Happy reading.

Oh my gosh! I am so glad I'm not the only sneak out there! I was beginning to think I needed to find a support group!

The Little Stranger sounds good Zoe, I'll have to check it out. Thanks!

Haha, we are in the same boat. My parents gave up on getting me normal gifts for my birthday, hannakuh, etc.

It's B&N giftcards now, baby :]

Ooh, I've read the first two (great) and need to get my hands on that Tera Lynn Childs one, stat!

Oh my gosh for once I can say that I know SOME of the book choices!!!

Ash looks beautiful, I've never read it but the title alone and the cover art has me hooked.

I loved the other two, very great reads. I just finished Forgive my Fins and it takes you back to when you were a little girl and dreamt of being a mermaid :)
