I actually got books this week - wahoo!
I've put myself on a book buying ban after BEA, but I temporarily lifted it to order Once Every Never. ;)
Bought
Once Every Never - Lesley Livingston
* ordered from Amazon Canada. I used Amazon UK a lot in the past, but I'd never used CA's website till now. I was EXTREMELY surprised at 1) how cheap it was to buy/ship from there, and 2) how **quickly** the book arrived! It came in only 5 days, even though I used the regular standard shipping. And the whole thing only cost around $20.
I'm just impatient and didn't want to wait around for regular old Amazon to put the title up, heehee.
Received for Review
A Monster Calls - Patrick Ness
Special thanks to Candlewick!
*Patrick Ness is one of my new favorite authors, and I just finished Monsters of Men, so I can't wait to check this one out as well!
What did everybody else get this week? Anyone else on a strict buying ban?

Patrick Ness is amazing. He just won the Carnegie Medal in the UK--I love seeing deserving authors recognized. I can't wait to read A Monster Calls, too!
ReplyDeleteCan't wait to see what you think of A Monster Calls. That one looks really creepy. Happy Reading!
ReplyDeleteNice mailbox! Totally understand you breaking your book buying ban for Once Every Never, as it sounds like a good one! I'm not on a strict ban just in case I can't resist a certain title or two (or three!), but am trying to stick to my budget. Good luck!
ReplyDeleteOh, Once Every Never? How exciting! Gaaah! I still have to finish the Wondrous Strange series. I've only read the first book...
ReplyDeleteHave a great week, Amelia!
Once Every Never was absolutely amazing. I really hope you enjoy it. It gets kind of addicting really fast.
ReplyDeleteI LOVED Once Every Never, my review will be up on July 5th ^^ I hope you like it!
ReplyDeleteOnce Every Never sounds fab. I never would have thought to order from Amazon in Canada. How did ordering from the UK website work out? There are two books that I can’t find anywhere but there. I’ve seriously considered ordering.
