This morning, I forgot my key card to get in the company... it didn't bother me, because the man I found very intimidating that's here really early was absent!! Yep, one less checking on me :P So instead, I had 20 minutes to read LOL :)
So this morning, I started my experiment and had all the time to blog-hop... and came across Ames' post :P Yep ppl, she's back and she went "crazy" book shopping yesterday :D She bought 3 books... hmmm. Okay, considering her new rule, the "Read 2 books from TBR and allowed to buy ONE book," I guess she did go a bit crazy LOL :P but then, she said that the rule wasn't in effect till October. So she bought 3 books... I couldn't help it... had to at least chuckle...
LOL Ames, you seriously have more willpower than me :) Here, let me show you how I do crazy :)
Monday, I read a review of Just Wicked Enough by Lorraine Heath. It sounded good and I haven't decided which book to read yet, so I decided to go buy it. At the same time, I have this coupon of 5$ off if I buy more than 35$ in store.... So here is what I bought:
- Just Wicked Enough by Lorraine Heath : B+
- Sex and the Single Ghost by Tawny Taylor : D
- Passion by Lisa Valdez - heard so much good about it
- If his Kiss is Wicked by Jo Goodman - everyone who read it seemed to love it
- One Last Breath by Laura Griffin - nice cover :P
Then, on Wednesday, I decided to go to the UBS to look for You Slay Me... instead, I found:
Squeeze Play and Black Silk were great finds... unfortunately, didn't find You Slay Me... ah well.
Then yesterday, I don't know... I saw Kristie posting up her list of books to read and Mine Till Midnight was there. Now, I'm not a great fan of historicals, but I do read them. I'm not a great fan of Lisa Kleypas, but I do read her. Mine Till Midnight really, really has a nice cover... and Cam's story... hmmm. So I checked out Indigo/Chapters online to see if any bookstore had it. Yes, they did! Well wait a minute, that book is only coming out next week... This mean a couple of next week's new releases are probably in store... and I know one of the bookstore in downtwon has You Slay Me. See, there are two bookstores downtown, from the same company, almost next to each other. For me to go downtown is no longer a detour, since I have to pick up my sister. But still, to go to both will take some time... and I might be stuck in traffic. So I called my sister to see if any of her friends had the I-Rewards card that makes you save 10% on the book... (I mean, now that the CDN $ is so high, I'm already over-paying the book... I don't really want to have to pay the regular price anymore)... So none of her friends had it... Okay, just join me at Indigo... where I bought:
- Sexiest Man Alive by Diane Holquist
- Fire Me Up by Katie MacAlister
- Demon's Kiss by Eve Silver
- Queen of Orcs: Royal Destiny by Morgan Howell
- One Piece volume 39
Hmm, with all these books, you'd think I could wait for You Slay Me right? Well nope. I give my sister a choice: to buy it now or she'd had to go the next day (meaning today)... She chose now. So we walked three blocks and I am now the proud owner of... tada:
Don't you see something missing? Yeah, I didn't buy Mine Till Midnight in the end, because that was at a third bookstore... but hey, I'm considering going later today... should I? Should I not?
See Ames, this is how you do crazy, LOL.
