First Class Post

Check out Showcase Sunday over on Books, Bisuits and Tea.

For review:

How They Met and Other Stories by David Levithan - I'm a huge fan of David Levithan, I do believe I'd say yes to receiving review copies of anything he wrote. Most of the stories in this collection are one Levithan wrote as gifts to his friends for Valentine's Day. I've heard Levithan talk about them before, so it's awesome to get a chance to read them!

A Hundred Pieces of Me by Lucy Dillon - I've been wanting to get back into some adult romance/contemporary, so although this isn't something I would normally accept for review, I decided I would give it a go. It sounds so moving. I want more moving books in my life.

Attachments by Rainbow Rowell - EEE! I AM SO HAPPY! Since finishing Eleanor and Park, I have made it my mission to read everything written by Rowell, so I'm super excited to read this!  E&P was SO good, I've just got to read all the books!

Fangirl by Rainbow Rowell - TGHFREHGDJHGT! Such a coincidence that they both arrived on the same day - Friday?! I am ecstatic!

Red by Alison Cherry - A book set in a town just for redheads! As a redhead, I'm already sold! (I do prefer the US cover, though.)

Bought:

Opal by Jennifer L. Armentrout - Yup, I've bought the third one! What can I say? It's addictive! And I need more!

Work Freebie:

Trouble by Non Pratt - I am so excited to read this! I've met Non a few times, and she's stopped by he blog, writing  aguest post for LGBTQ YA Month, so it's so awesome to be able to read her book!

Thank you to Egmont, Hodder and Stoughton, Orion, Macmillan's Children's Books and Quercus for the review copies.

  2. Such a high quality book haul. I adored Fangirl, and of course any David Levithan is pure gold. Trouble was awesome as well! Happy reading :-)

    1. Thank you! I know, I'm so lucky! SO looking forward to Fangirl! I'm really hoping I love How They Met, the last two I read, one I didn't like (Invisibility), the other I enjoyed (Two Boys Kissing), but I didn't love either. I'm hoping for more love, lol. Trouble sounds awesome, really excited to read it! :)

  3. Eleanor & Park was my first read of this year because I got it for Christmas and I thought it was AMAZING, I loved it so much, I read Fangirl a few months back and loved that too. I also want to read Trouble and Red.
