Ok so I confess, I love books. Oh..you already knew that huh? Well, earlier this week, I had a book attack. I just needed to be in a bookstore. So I drove to the Used Book Superstore and it conveniently has next to it, Savers. Both places I have scored some great deals. This time was no exception.
At the Used Book Superstore I only found one book, Angel Burn by L.A. Weatherly which is a young adult fantasy. It’s book two in a trilogy so I will have to keep my eyes peeled for book one and three. I usually don’t buy out of order but this copy was signed. So I snatched it up for $3.29.
I then headed over to Savers and that’s where the magic happened. I found two hard cover books in brand new condition and two soft covers.
- My Name is Memory by Ann Brashares who wrote The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants as well as a new one called, “The Here and Now”. This book is about reincarnation and the love that lasts a lifetime. It sounds like a nice snuggle under the blanket fall day kind of book.
- Savage Girl by Jean Zimmerman is a tale from the author of The Orphanmaster about a wild girl from Nevada who lands in Manhattan’s Gilded Age society. The cover is so amazing on this book, I just can’t wait to dive in.
- Huntress by Malinda Lo is the adventure prequel to Lo’s highly acclaimed novel Ash and is overflowing with lush Chinese influences and details inspired by the I Ching, and is filled with action and romance. Sounds like a fun read. The cover is beautiful on this book and let’s face it, I like kick-ass female leads.
- The Great and Terrible Beauty by Libba Bray is the first The Gemma Doyle Trilogy. It is a young adult historical fiction set in the Victorian Age. I am thrilled to check out the first in the series to see if I should venture further.
If you read any of these books let me know what you think.
Well now I am off to go heat up some tea and continue reading my current bookclub selection, “Strength in What Remains by Tracy Kidder. I will leave a review soon.
Happy reading!
Belinda
I am pretty sure they girls and I listened to The Great and Terrible Beauty in recorded book form. Unfortunately, I don’t really remember whether or not we liked it! Let me know if you thinkI did or not! 🙂
