Showcase Sunday #23



Showcase Sunday is hosted by Vickie at Books Biscuits and Tea. The aim of this event is to highlight our newest books or book related swag and to see what everyone else received for review, borrowed from libraries, bought in bookshops and downloaded onto eReaders each week.

Hello everyone! Hope you're enjoying your Sunday. Looking forward to seeing all your books! Here's mine:





























Don't Even Think About It by Sarah Mlynowski (To be Reviewed)
The Hive by Gill Horby (Bought)
Secret Revealed by L. Marie Adeline (To be Reviewed)
The Broken by Tamar Cohen (To be Reviewed)
The Bone Season (Bought)
The Headmaster's Wife (To be Reviewed)

Very happy with my books this week. Don't Even Think About It sounds so good. I'm really into YA novels at the moment and literally just finished reading one called Tease yesterday which I highly recommend. The Bone Season and The Hive are two books I have had my eye on since they came out in hardback, so have been waiting for ages for the paperback versions and finally have them to read. Secret Revealed was a surprise book post and is the third in the trilogy. I still have one and two to read, so must catch up. I adore the cover though! The Broken sounds really intriguing and I am part of the blog tour for it in May, so look out for a giveaway then.

So that's my books this week. What have you all bought/received/borrowed this week? Do let me know.

  2. Oooh, you've got The Bone Season in that batch. That's on my TBR list too but it's soooo long. Do you find that you enjoy shorter or longer books? If I like the plot, then I love a longer book because it draws it out more, but sometimes, longer is just longer and it doesn't add anything to the story. What do you think?

    1. Yeh I think I feel the same as you. If the book is good, it does't matter how long it is cos you read it faster as you keep wanting to immerse yourself in it. But if it's not really grabbing me, I prefer it to be shorter :)

    1. It really makes the book more believable when they do that. I'm hoping to get stuck in very soon :)

  8. Oh man, The Bone Season has been sitting on my shelf since it was released. That really is the story of my life. But the cover is gorgeous, eh?
    The Broken sounds interesting!
    I hope you enjoy Don't Even Think About It. Unfortunately it wasn't for me. But I've seen some other bloggers loving it.
    Great haul!

  9. I have The Bone Season on the TBR and I am looking forward to it.The only thing I am worried about is that it has been dubbed the next Harry Potter which I get really pissed at when publishers do that! :')

    I have Don't Even Think About It on my kindle and I am really looking forward to it. It looks really different to what I normally read! I look forward to your thoughts on it! :)

    Thanks for sharing & enjoy all of your books :3

    My Showcase Sunday :)
