Haven’t done an IMM in the last 3 weeks, so here is all the goodies I’ve received since then.

Pretty Crooked by Elisa Ludwig – I had already brought a copy of this but after hosting Elisa Ludwig on my blog in celebration of my birthday and Pretty Crooked, she sneakily asked for my address and sent me a signed copy, wishing me happy birthday.

Gilt (The Royal Circle #1) by Katherine Longshore – After spreading the word like mad that Katherine Longshore had a new website which she was celebrtating with a giveaway, I was luckily enough to win an ARC!! Was very excited for this book and I can gladly say it lived up to my expectations. Read, loved, review coming soon!

Gilt Swag – Postcard, bookmark and door hanger

Anna and the French Kiss by Stephanie Perkins – This book is a favourite of mine so when I saw that it was being auctioned, I got bidding. The auction also included a necklace which I forgot to include but here’s a description: double-sided necklace crafted by an artist in the author's hometown of Asheville, NC. One side of the necklace features the Eiffel Tower, the other side is pink with a chandelier." Anna is signed by the author addressed to me and includes a little message written in an awesome purple pen! The best part was that the money raised went to a great cause! I *hope* to meet Stephanie Perkins in the future but since I have no idea when that might happen this will do for now! :)

Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone (Harry Potter #1) – I’ve been meaning to read the series and finally (after a bit of persuasion) I took the plunge and brought book one! Happy now, Brodie and Taneika? ;D

Revived by Cat Patrick – A gorgeous story that I loved, for more gushing read my review here!

Touch (Denazen #1) by Jus Accardo – Super excited to read this after Jacinda @ The Reading Housewives did a post including 8 amazing reasons why you need to read this book! She certainly sold me and I was very lucky to win the giveaway she was hosting!

(A massive thanks to Elisa, Katy, Stephanie, Hardie Grant Egmont and Jacinda!)

Miscellaneous:

My Life Next Door by Huntley Fitzpatrick – Not only am I beyond looking forward to reading this, but this is my first ever ARC I’ve received which adds to the excitement! I swoon at romance, so I can’t wait to dive in. Plus in the blurb it mentions a twist and I’ve heard it’s pretty big! Thank you so much Huntley for sending me a copy, your too lovely!

Forgotten by Cat Patrick – I read this book last year after and really enjoyed it, so I’m happy I now have a copy for my shelf.

Purchased:

Pretty Crooked by Elisa Ludwig – Yay! The book looks amazing and I can’t wait to read more about Willa, as what I’ve read about her so far through interviews has been awesome!

Wanderlove by Kirsten Hubbard – I just love books where traveling is involved and the things I’ve heard about this book make me want to just sit down and read it pronto! Plus, I’ve heard there are beautiful illustrations throughout the book, drawn by the author herself!

Immortal City by Scott Speer – This book looks amazing! I’m even more excited since the lovely Anna from Literary Exploration went crazy on Twitter about just how awesome it is! Hopefully I’ll be reading this super soon! Also, quick mention to the amazing Penguin BTL, who (somehow) scheduled the package to arrive on my birthday!

The Hunger Games: Official Illustrated Movie Companion by Kate Egan – I was at the shops yesterday when mum spotted a beautiful Hunger Games display in a bookshop.  As soon as my eyes saw the Movie Companion, I rushed in to have a look and knew I had to have it!

The Disenchantments by Nina LaCour – I’m currently reading this and enjoying it. But it isn’t helping the fact that I’m reading this on top of Delirium and also re-reading Perfect Chemistry. 3 books! I normally don’t do this, but...whoops! Hopefully, I’ll spend some quality time alone with it soon and really get into the story!

That was the only book I got this week, but I did get some swag! Hilary Graham sent me two road trip mixed CD’s along with a few bookmarks. One is for me and the other is for the winner of the Road Trip Week Giveaway.

Hope you had a good week book wise! Happy Reading!

The Alchemy of Forever by Avery Williams -
I had wishing for this book in January when it first released, but unfortunately didn't get it back then. But not to worry, because this month the soon-to-be released Aussie edition showed up in my mailbox! :D Can't wait to read this!

The Reluctant Hallelujah by Gabrielle Williams -
This was such a suprise when it came in the mail, but a very very good suprise! It's a road trip (which you all know I LOVE!), so I think it's very fitting that I'm currently reading this since Road Trip Week just finished. Plus, it's an Aussie read , and I haven't read one in forever, so yay! Reading this at the moment and am loving it - completely wacky, but completely good! 

Both are short books, only a little over +200 pages, to they shouldn't take long to read. Also, just noticed both their last names are the same! ha!

I read Unearthly last month and thoroughly enjoyed it, so I’m anxious to see what happens next!
