Want to brag about your newest book purchase? Here's the place to do so! We might even find a great book to add to our to-read list. Boast away! :D

I just went out to Books-A-Million tonight. Though I only intended to browse, they had a great sale going on and I picked up two books for just under eight books! I got a nice, hardcover copy of Shatter Me. (The pretty cover, not the weird one with the he, lol.) I also found a nice copy of Tiger's Curse. I probably could've gotten it at the library and read it, but I couldn't resist it at the price of $3.97! I hope to start it soon!

I recently ordered off bookdepositroy.co.uk Shadow Lands by kate brian and Sweet peril by wend Higgins, I've already finish shadow lands it took me two days i'm now starting weet peril :)

I went ebook shopping today. :)

I got a few free books from the teens section. I would say my best find from there today is .

I then bought (all different prices ranging from $2.99 to $5.99).

I also want to get one more ebook for $2.99 or less. Any suggestions?

Ooh, I've been wanting to read The Collector!

Kiss of Fire is only $0.99!

I believe the book I finally did pick was Just for Now. :)

Haha, nice. XD

I loved that series! You'll really enjoy the last installment!

This past weekend I bought:

Awesome! I've heard good things about The Assassin's Curse.

I haven't bought many books, the the most recent book I bought was:

I just bought and real soon I'm going to purchase (both ebooks).

I assume you haven't read Scarlet yet, then? I just finished it for the Summer Reading Challenge at YAbookaholics. It was awesome! Better then the first, I'd say.

It's always those last few days that are the worst. Lol.

I haven't read Scarlet yet, so that's why I'm buying it. I meant to buy it last month because it was a BOTM for a group I'm in. I didn't get a lot of time to read last month, though, so I didn't get the book.

You'll love it! And I know what you mean. I'm bogged down with so many books to read for challenges and Group Reads. (But that's always a good thing.) I'm hoping to get to the books in this group, and one other I'm a mod in. Hopefully I'll have time to read Paper Towns and Legend. :)

It's a vicious cycle we book lovers land in. :/

And tonight I added and

Yes to Shadow and Bone! :D Hope you love it!

You should definitely get Angelfall, it was really good!

Ooh, so many awesome new book buys! I've been wanting to read Angelfire for a while now, as well as Unraveling and Eve and Adam!

I wish I had more money to buy books, but sadly I'm a poor college student. XD

I bought two ebooks today: Breaking Beautiful and Mercy Girl. I also got a few other ones for free recently. I'll post the covers for those when I get onto a computer.

*Edit*

Here are the covers of the books I've gotten recently:



I'm also supposed to be receiving and soon.

*Merch

The second book was Merch Girl.

Finally bought:

Ooh, you'll love them, Paulina! I especially liked Defiance. =)

I just purchased and it was amazing. I highly recommend this book.

I got these ebooks for sale on amazon:

Just got and

Hope they're good!

--> I got it on a bargain bookstore. Though I've read this last year in ebook format.

I have recently gone on a book buying ban, but I have learned that I buy more books on the ban than I normally would off one. These are some that I have bought this month: and last but not least

A bookstore near me is closing this month and had some amazing deals!!

Haha, that's awesome Sophie!

They're not YA, but I just recently got and

And not really a "purchase," but I got these from the library!

I purchased Insurgent yesterday on my Kindle. :D

I'm going to Goodwill on Wednesday, so maybe I'll find something. I don't find much that I like there very often, but I did find a nice hardcover of Eldest (sequel to Eragon) for only four or five bucks once!

It is a good place to find good hardcover books. Usually by the one they come to Goodwill, the paperbacks are all beaten up, but I've found a few good ones there, too.

I recently bought these from my local used bookstore:


The only one that I haven't read is Touched, but I have other books from the series of the books I bought (Ex: I own Delirium, A Million Suns, etc) and wanted all the books in the series.

Ordered and
Can't wait for them to come in the mail :)

Ooh, nice! :)

I hope they are really good, is Shatter Me good? I heard it had a lot of romance in it

I just purchased . Adding it to my stack to read some day. Has anybody read this book? Is it a good book? I really hope so.

On Wednesday, I went to Goodwill like I said I would. I went to a bookstore afterwards. Also, my friend lent me two books on the same day (and returned one she had been borrowing all year but never finished), so I came home on Wednesday with six books in all.

Borrowed:
Between Shades of Gray by Ruta Sepetys
Words by Ginny L. Yttrup

Bought from bookstore:
The Immortal Rules by Julie Kagawa (a five dollar used hardcover--so awesome)

Bought at Goodwill (two dollars each):
The Help by Kathryn Stockett
The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants by Ann Brashares (which I know Brittany will be happy about)

Wednesday was such a lucky day for books. It was probably the best selection of books I saw at Goodwill. Almost every time I noticed a title I recognized, I said things like, "that's been turned into a movie, "I've watched the movie--it was really good--but I don't think I'm going to try the book," "I haven't seen the movie of this yet," and anything else movie related. Goodwill is like book-to-movie central.

Also, it seems the the sisterhood of traveling pants really wants me to read it, because I saw thee used copies of the first book (two at Goodwill; one at the bookstore), two copies of the second, one copy of the third, and one of the fourth (at the bookstore). I only bought the first book though.

Yay! You are indeed right, I am happy! ;)

I remember loving the series so much when I was in high school. I hope you like it, too! And hey, it counts toward the Bookaholics Books-to-Movie Challenge as well as the Banner Challenge here. Kill two birds with one stone. Lol.

I also LOVED The Help. It's one of my all-time favorites. I particularly love southern books set during the times of the Civil Rights movement and before. (The Secret Life of Bees, To Kill A Mockingbird, Fried Green Tomatoes at the Whistle Stop Cafe, Whistling Past the Graveyard, ect. I love them all and highly recommend them if you haven't read them!)

And the movie versions of both Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants and The Help are fantastic. <3
