  2. YAY you got Prophecy! I'm so excited to know what you think! And you know what's funny? The original manuscript was about 25K longer! There was a lot of editing and pruning! ;o)

  7. So I pretty much hate you right now because of your haul. But this week I got The Evolution of Mara Dyer (and nothing else), so I think we know who got the best haul this week. Sorry, Christina. Maybe next week?

    BUT YOU GOT PIVOT POINT! AND NOBODY BUT US! (You got it right - I'm dying to read that) AND MIND GAMES! AND JUST ONE DAY!

    Enjoy your haul. I'll try not to be bitter. (she says bitterly)

    1. You totally won! *sigh* I will cling on to my dreams of this week's haul, which so far consists of only books I've bought, so I think I'm winning!

      *dances*

  9. That's quite a list of books! I can't wait for Mind Games or Pivot Point!

  10. Yay for Renegade! And the Madman's Daughter sounds really good! Pivot Point sounds SO good too! But almost every HC book I read this year have been 3 stars. Bleh. So let's hope I have better luck with that one. Great haul, chickiedee!

    1. Oh no! I've been up and down on HC. I usually like Balzer + Bray books a bit more, though that's not consistent either.

    Mind Games and Just One Day...so excited for them.
