I got a bound manuscript for TGITSC, which is actually a big surprise. The package was so heavy and really big too! (Don't even ask how much the shipping costs!) I feel like book blogging became way more real when I got the manuscript. My inner self was going "Hey! I'm getting manuscripts now!" As you all know, the cover is just breath taking, and if I can get an ARC of this, it'll be really nice. In the meantime, I need to have my copy bound. I don't think I can bring this around with me to read like this. :)
The copies of Evermore and Bluemoon were surprise copies. I didn't know they were sending it to me, so I was puzzled when I opened the package. I was only expecting two, and there were four. Now I need to start reading The Immortals series!

ReplyDeleteYou aren't kidding about this being an epic week! I'm so jealous of Forgotten. I can understand what you mean about book blogging feeling real after getting a manuscript. Happy reading!
ReplyDeleteMy Mailbox has some super cool Dark Days of Supernatural stuff in it!
My goodness, you got a lot of great books and I really loved that one cover so much! I read the Immortal series and I liked it less and less as the books went on, but I really liked the first one! Anyway, I hope you're doing well and I'll ttyl.

LOL "it was pretty good, even though I hated Corrine so much I wanted to kill her" - made me laugh and now I'm intrigued by it! :D

Aww, I couldn't hear it much but I imagined what you were saying. :) Glad you got Ten Miles and Burn Bright! You've been really looking forward to those. And oh my gosh..the manuscript is super thick! :) Now, all you have to do is read them all and review them! Update your excel!

I've tried, as in, maximizing the volume of my speaker. Haha. Well, next time or maybe this Summer or this coming Saturday I can post a video of myself like yours. Haha.
