So,these past few weeks I got a lot of books. Some I won and others I actually bought even though the hardcovers are expensive. So here is the list:

WON:

1. The Violet Eden Chapters by Jessica Shirvington at Joyous Reads

2. Crewel by Gennifer Albin at Book Haven Extraordinaire

BOUGHT:

1. Soul Screamers Volume Two by Rachel Vincent

2. The Brides of Rollrock Island by Margo Lanagan

3. Monstrous Beauty by Elizabeth Fama

I am so happy I finally bought The Brides of Rollrock Island and Monstrous Beauty because lately I've grown to love sea creatures. Soul Screamers Vol.2 is out and I still haven't read the first one. Need to change that very soon.

FOR REVIEW: 

1. The Sea of Tranquility by Katja Millay

I actually got this book when it was first released as an indie ebook and after i heard it was going to come out in paperback I just had to request it on Net Galley as an encouragement so I can start it sooner. 

I'm currently reading Across The Universe by Beth Revis which is driving me crazy with the description of absolutely everything on the freaking Godspeeed ship and Flawed by Kate Avelynn which is not impressing me yet. But almost all my friends loved it so,I hope I'll give it at least 3 stars in the end. 

I'm joining December Read-along CREWEL on Book Twirps.

Should be fun! 

I'm also planning to start with a couple of reading challenges to make things interesting because I've had a hard time actually finishing a book lately. Aside from the 2013 Paranormal Reading Challenge I talked about before I'm joining December 2012 Monthly Reading Challenge hosted by Young Adult Reads on Goodreads. 

Categories in this challenge are:

1) A book with a RED cover

2) A book that starts with the letter C.
3) A book with a couple in the cover.
4) A book released on Dec 2012.
5) A book with a guy on the cover.
6) A book about mermaids.
7) A book with a white cover.
8) A book that you've read a long time ago (a re-read).
9) The oldest book on your (Goodreads) TBR.
10) A book of your choice from this list

I'm not sure if I'm going to read 10 books. Let's just see how it goes. Here are some I plan to read from the list:

 So this week was really eventful.

For one , I got to start on a good bloggy journey with partner Zemmy . Secondly , I got to sleep and read a lot. I got holidaaaays! 
And thirdly , I reached my credit card limit.

But books are my baby and I love my babies. 
So anything for them. Anyway , since my inner monologue is over , let’s begin with my list of books to read for the week!

 BOUGHT:

     

I’m currently reading The Perfect Game by J.Sterling and well , it’s just the beginning so I can’t say much. Although it pretty much did annoy me a little.
Now as to the books above , I’m so excited to read them!
Oh and you guys...

Doesn’t Bradley Cooper just steal your breath away?
JUST . LOOK . AT . HIM.

Also , I’ve heard so much about Double Clutch and Crewel!
And Seduced in the Dark...Well , it’s got Caleb in it!! CALEB!
The current love of my life and motivation of swooni-ness.
So basically the book before it , Captive in The Dark was a total make-my-head-explode kind of a book and it disgusted and terrified the hell out of me..but like I said , total MMHE (Make my head explode.) I loved how it turned out and I loved the note it ended at. It showed great promise and potential and so I’m pretty sure Seduced in Dark will blow me away.
You will won’t you , dear book?
And as for Dizzy , what a cute synopsis!

here’s a bit for you..

Dylan doesn’t do relationships. He and his older brother watched their dad go through hell and back, so they made a pact years ago—no girl would come between the Gibson boys. But his brother sells out. He's getting married anyway. To the sister of a chick Dylan met at a party, who's probably the angriest girl he's ever met. Unfortunately, she happens to be hot, too.
Ziah’s life is upside down—her safe boyfriend turns out to be not-so-safe, and now her sister is getting married before college is over to the older brother of a spoiled, party boy who drives her crazy. And also makes her heart beat too fast.
There’s no denying the attraction, but there's also no denying how much they irritate each other. When they’re thrown together as forced wedding planners, they find an ally in each other--neither wants this wedding to happen.
But instead of putting a stop to the crazy nuptials they find themselves at fittings and cake testing. And maybe even…a few dates?Dizzy is a novel about what happens when two people who are determined not to fall in love, maybe do anyway. Maybe.

Doesn’t it sound cool?
Oh I just can’t wait!

And The Fault In Our Stars , was always one I wanted to read and now that I have it in paperback..Oh where do I even begin?

 So that’s all for this week! We’ll keep you posted with more.

Happy reading :D
