Book Loot (6)

I've been trying very hard to refrain from buying books, which is a very good thing because the AC in my car suddenly died last week and I got hit with an unexpected, $800 repair bill. *sobs* Fortunately, the books that are featured in this post were either already pre-ordered a while ago with a gift card or paid for with Amazon reward points. Phew!

Bought:

Isla and the Happily Ever After by Stephanie Perkins
Of Metal and Wishes by Sarah Fine
Silver Shadows by Richelle Mead

    1. I LOVED Sarah Fine's Sanctum, and I've been hearing nothing but awesome things about Of Metal and Wishes. It was a no-brainer that I HAD to get a copy of this!

  2. Wow, what a bill! Ouch. Well at least you got a few new books already pre-paid to cheer you up! I hope you enjoy reading those, Of Metal and Wishes looks so good, I am definitely jealous!

    1. Yes, I definitely did need some new books to cheer me up! I was very lucky they were pre-paid because otherwise, I would've had to cancel those orders, which would have made me even sadder!

    1. It's just not possible to go without AC in Florida in the middle of August, so I had to bite the bullet and get it fixed. Glad you're enjoying Bloodlines! I can't believe I've fallen behind with the series, considering how much I love it. I've really got to pick it up again soon.

  4. Holy hell $800.00! That kills Lee, I'm so sorry about that D: I don't blame you restraint one bit but I'm happy that you still got treated to some pretties! Pre-orders are the best :D Of Metal and Wishes is definitely one that I'm itching to get my hands on - I've heard some wonderful things. Bloodlines is another series I NEED to get into, Ula over at Blog of Erised ADORED Silver Shadows so I hope you will too! And I might be the only blogger alive not reading Isla this week haha Happy reading ^^

    1. My car is 8 years old and takes a beating because it's sooooo hot here in the summer so I know it's going to show its age, but the AC came right on the heels of having to get the brakes redone. I've reached the acceptance stage, however, lol, and just have to be a lot more careful with my budget. This does not apply to September, though, when some desperately awaited releases come out (like HEIR OF FIRE - WHEEEE!!!).
