Hauling Sunday LXXVII

Guess what? I just came back from the bookstore :) I have to say, I'm pretty proud of myself since the beginning of 2012 because I have stopped running after new releases so much. Oh I still want new releases... but I no longer hit the bookstore several times a week. Now, I can wait till the end of the week LOL. It's nice LOL.

So what did I get this morning? This one...


Deadly Descendant by Jenna Black - I read and really enjoyed the first book in the series, Dark Descendant. I'm hoping this one will be as good because I really wouldn't mind a new UF series :) If you're wondering a bit about the style, the best way to describe it right now is Percy Jackson for grown-up :)

Ah, but it's not because I only went to the bookstore once and bought one book that my post is over. Nope, that's the beauty of modern time :) No need to go to the bookstores to get books! Here is what I got in the mail...


The Witness by Nora Roberts - Need I say more?!? LOL, it's Nora Roberts!! I had no idea this was her 200th book. Unbelievable right? Anyway, I already finished reading this one and it was a winner! :) Review to come, hopefully tomorrow ;)

The Calling by Kelley Armstrong - I love Kelley Armstrong. However, I admit that these past couple of years, I haven't been on top as I'm usually is. Still, the world she has created is amazing and I'm not about to give her up either :) Hopefully, The Calling will be a winner :)

As I said, I've dropped behind on Ms Armstrong's Women of the Otherworld series. One of the reasons is because Ms Armstrong stretches herself a lot. I mean, some of her installments are published by Subterranean Press which are not the easiest to get your hands on. At least, not in print. E-books though? That's another story right? Especially when you consider the pricing! So that's what I did, I caught up on the series by buying these two books...


Angelic by Kelley Armstrong - This novella features Eve. She's not my favorite character which is why I didn't rush out to buy this book... Still, it's nice now to have the complete collection.

Counterfeit Magic by Kelley Armstrong - See, I'm actually a fan of Paige. I know, very rare LOL. But for some reasons, the blurb of this one didn't draw me in. So that's why I'm only getting it now...

So that's my haul for this week :) Not bad right?
