Book Haul: Origin

I only got one book in the mail this week, plus a few from netgalley. Man it's been a lazy August. :P And I'm FINALLY getting back to blogging! But it's so tiring sometimes. Taking a break (unintentional and intentional) totally screwed me over with wanting to blog. So I'm really sorry if I haven't commented on your blog in a while. I just haven't been wanting to.

BUT ANYWAY.

book haul!

for review (physical):

origin by jessica khoury: oh man, I am so excited for this book. and it's good, too! already read like 100 pages. a little slow, but whatever. :P hopefully it picks up soon. (ALSO YES IT'S MY FIRST PENGUIN REQUESTED BOOK. Once upon a time I got Gilt, but I didn't request it. I went through my email trying to figure out if I did or didn't and well, I didn't. But I wanted it SO badly.)

for review (ebooks):

wrong bed, right guy by katee robert: I know what you all are thinking either a) I LOVED THAT BOOK or b) didn't she get burned by katee's first book? (yes) or c) hm, sounds interesting. the correct answer is: b. but I am willing to try again. and I like it so far. 
jane: the woman who loved tarzan by robin maxwell: EEEE. I got pitched two books and I declined them both because they didn't interest me, so the publicist turned around and offered me to be on the blog tour for this one and of course I said yes. this book has been on my wishlist ever since I first heard about it a few months ago.
eve and adam by michael grant and katherine applegate: hooray for being on auto-approve with macmillan. :D
crewel by gennifer albin
the secret society by marie rutkoski

yay! so while I didn't get a lot, I did get books I'm excited for so YAY. :)

THIS WEEK ON THE BLOG:

review: The Selection by Kiera Cass

audiobook review: Fifty Shames of Earl Grey by Andrew Shaffer

review: Beautiful Lies by Jessica Warman

cover interview: Taken by Erin Bowman

short story Saturday: the lovestruck goddess by Aimee Carter

The Selection was supposed to go up on Monday, but apparently it was still in draft form so I had to yank my original Tuesday review and had The Selection go up then. Otherwise, I would have blogged all days this week and that's a record for me. :P
