Thanks to Kristi from The Story Siren for hosting this awesome meme. None for review this week, but I still managed to get a great haul!

Won:
Firespell by Chloe Neill
Ash by Malinda Lo
Bleeding Violet by Dia Reeves
Leviathan by Scott Westerfeld (Signed!!! That was such a happy-making surprise!)
(I won all four of those from Dark Faerie Tales. Thanks again!)

From Paperbackswap:
Thirst by Christopher Pike


Won:
The Summoning by Kelly Armstrong
The Faerie Path by Frewin Jones
Far World by J. Scott Savage
(Thank you to Cat from Beyond Books for sending me these!((Twitter followers: this was the mystery package.)

Bought:
Wondrous Strange by Lesley Livingston
My Soul To Take by Rachel Vincent
The House of the Scorpion (Bought last week from Goodwill and completely forgot to mention it last week.)

Borrowed (from friend):
If I Stay by Gale Foreman (That's the white book without the dust jacket. Apparently she doesn't trust me with her dusk jacket.)

That's it for me this week.
