Book Haul



The Cellar by Natasha Preston

The Body in the Woods by April Henry

Second Star by Alyssa Sheinmel

Scarlet by Marissa Meyer

Deeper by Robin York

If I Stay by Gayle Foreman

Where She Went by Gayle Foreman

Hi guys!

This week I got plenty of exciting books.
For review I got The Cellar, which sounds intense and kind of depressing to be honest, but I'm looking forward to reading it. I couldn't resist not downloading The Body in the Woods. I love a good murder mystery! Second Star sounds like an adorable read and I'm looking forward to reading it.

I also got paid this week, so I went book-shopping! I got Scarlet, which I've been meaning to read for some time now. I'm currently reading it and I absolutely love Captain Thorne! I'm crushing hard on him and I can't wait to read his story next week. :D

I didn't plan on buying Deeper until I read Giselle's review which made me want to read it. I love NA books that tackle real life issues and I'm looking forward to reading it soon. Also, Siiri at Little Pieces of Imagination was shocked that I hadn't read the If I Stay series, so I gave in to the peer pressure and bought it. I'm saving it for a rainy day under the blanket with tons of tissue. 

I hope you all got great books too this week!

Thank you to Sourcebooks Fire and Macmillan for the review copies!

In My Mailbox is a weekly meme hosted by Kristi at The Story Siren . Touch (Denazen #1) by Jus Accorda Summary (from Goodreads) When a strange boy tumbles down a river embankment and lands at her feet, seventeen-year-old adrenaline junkie Deznee Cross snatches the opportunity to piss off her father by bringing the mysterious hottie with ice blue eyes home. Except there’s something off with Kale. He wears her shoes in the shower, is overly fascinated with things like DVDs and vases, and acts like she’ll turn to dust if he touches her. It’s not until Dez’s father shows up, wielding a gun and knowing more about Kale than he should, that Dez realizes there’s more to this boy—and her father’s “law firm”—than she realized. Kale has been a prisoner of Denazen Corporation—an organization devoted to collecting “special” kids known as Sixes and using them as weapons—his entire life. And, oh yeah, his touch? It kills. The two team up with a group of rogue Sixes hellbent on taking dow
