Tasty Treats (7)

13 Jan

Hi there! Happy Sunday!

Recently, I received two gift cards to Barnes and Noble as Christmas gifts!  One from my brother-in-law (thanks Ray!) and the other from my Secret Santa at school (Thanks Dep!).

You can imagine how excited I was upon receiving these gift cards! I immediately started dreaming out what titles I’d buy. I spent some time reviewing my Waiting on Wednesday posts and my TBR list on Goodreads to refresh my memory on books I’d been wanting for a while.  Well, I ended up purchasing four books with those gift cards and they all finally came in this week (SO EXCITED!). Shall we take a looksy?!

Look at these tasty treats! Yum!

Look at these tasty treats! Yum!

I love looking at them all lined up, but let’s get a better look at each of those pretty covers!

Throne of Glass by Sarah J. Maas

Man, I’m a sucker for brand new books! Is it weird that I kind of want to caress them all? You know what…just don’t answer that!

Each of these books are ones that initially drew my attention, but then I kept hearing such fabulous reviews I knew I had to read them. So yes! I think I spent my gift cards pretty wisely, don’t you?!

    I loved Throne of Glass and Grave Mercy. I also liked Delirium but haven’t read My Life Next Door. I’ll be eager to hear what you think of it. My new books posts are at Ms. Martin Teaches Media and Inside of a Dog. Please stop by if you get a chance. Happy reading!

    Those are some awesome looking books! Let me know if you like them. I haven’t read any of them but they’re all on my TBR list on Goodreads. Happy reading!

    They are good books AND pretty books. I read Grave Mercy on audio and Delirium as a library e-book, so I’m now stuck with the dilemma of wanting to buy the hardcovers for my shelf. They look so nice!

    Delirium is incredible. I’ve been dying to read My Life Next Door and I just won a copy of Throne of Glass, and can’t wait to read it.

    Great haul. Thanks for sharing.

    Grave Mercy was on so many best of lists for 2012, I just have to pick it up. Delirium is so amazing, I’m sure you will love it.

    Wow. You are so lucky. I share the same feeling with books. I see you have Throne of Glass there. It is in my to-read list and I hope I will also get a copy soon.
