For Review:  

Close to His Heart by Leonora Pruner---look for my review and giveaways around August 23rd---I'm going to be on a blog tour for this one.


From the Library:

The Passage by Justin Cronin---everyone's talking about this one so I need to see what all the fuss is about.

Water for Elephants by Sara Gruen---I can't believe I haven't read this one yet.

Her Mother's Hope by Francine Rivers---I didn't know Rivers had a new book out and I dropped everything to read this one!  And the best thing is that it's the first in a duet!

Evernight by Claudia Gray---because I love a good vampire boarding school tale.

Bought: 

One Foot in the Grave (Night Huntress #2) by Jeaniene Frost---because the Halfway to the Grave (Night Huntress #1) ends with such a cliff-hanger not reading book two is not an option!

Father Mine: Zsadist and Bella's Story by JR Ward (Black Dagger Brotherhood #6.5)---I just found out about this novella and immediately downloaded it to my Nook.  So exciting!

What's in your mailbox this week?

  3. I really like the Evernight series. There's a pretty cool twist half way though the first novel that really shocked me. Hopefully things haven't been spoiled for you because the twist is pretty awesome haha. Happy reading! :D

  6. I heard Water for Elephants is being turned onto a movie. I always like to read the books before I see the movies.

  10. Super cute site! Thanks for stopping by blog. One Foot in the Grave looks good. But I'll have to check out Book 1 first. I really need to see what all the fuss is about regarding The Passage too. LOL

  12. Yum is most certainly the only way to describe Bones and that entire series. The spinoff isn't quite as good, but still really enjoyable. I love Jeaniene Frost, can't wait to see how you like the next 2 books!

  13. I haven't read Water for Elephants either! It's been sitting on my bookshelf since last year but there always ends up being something else I want to read first.
