Showcase Sunday is a weekly meme hosted by Vicky at Books, Biscuits & Tea.Its an opportunity to highlight our newest books or book related swag and to see what everyone else received for review, borrowed from libraries, bought in bookshops and downloaded onto eReaders each week.
Unfortunately it has been a while since I have done a Showcase Sunday *sighs* but this week I got a little overloaded with books so I thought I would make a one of the best books I have received and looking forward to reading in the next few weeks. Work has also been keeping me busy with new prospects ahead for the future as well. Exciting Times. So thank you to my Postman who seems to know even when I’m not in to deliver to my work so I can get them. Haha! So thank you to again Royal Mail and the Publishers for these….
Shine by Candy Gourlay Dead Jealous by Sharon Jones
Soulmates by Holly Bourne AntiGoddess by Kendare Blake
The Coldest Girl in Coldtown by Holly Black She is Not Invisible by Marcus Sedgwick
Teardrop by Lauren Kate
I’ve kind of experimented with my book presentation. Hehe. Anyways Soulmates I’m so excited to read, Holly actually lives near where I work now so I was very honored to get this book. Stolen was one that I asked for and if you have seen my tweets on it with Sam @ Realm of Fiction you know how much I really want to get stuck in.Now the second picture; Dead Jealous is one that I’m reading for #UKYA (which I have only just heard of, Sorry Lucy!) But my surprise was from Indigo with the Shadows and Haze, I love when I receive them in series order. Finally She is Not Invisible was again a surprise, I haven’t read anything by Marcus, so I’m looking forward to it.
And Yes I have some NetGalley’s this week. I have been a very good girl and only requested ones that sounds really interesting or ones that have been recommended to me. I love LOVE Simone Elkeles Perfect Chemistry book, I have re-read them like 5 times… So I can’t wait for another series. The Breathe series I’m reading for Sci-Fi Month in September and Geek Girl 2, well I’ve heard such high praise and I’m thinking of doing a read-along of the series to those who want to join! Let me know in the comments!
So with the all that showcased I will resume my blogging this week. It has been manic… So thank you to all the Indigo, Hachette, Random House, Chicken House, Usbourne and Bloombury.
On the blog recently my joints of reviews of City of Bones Book and Film Review, Go check it out!
Well that’s my haul for this week. Have you read any of these novels? I would love to know… Leave me a link to your Sunday Post and I will be sure to see what you received!?
OOOH LALA so many pretty books, Emma! I want to read The Coldest Girl in Coldtown, Stolen, Teardrop, Antigoddess… You've got a lovely pile ahead of you! Happy reading. 🙂
Thanks Jen, I'm really looking forward to reading all of those as well, especially Stolen. Thanks for stopping by!
You go Stolen!!!!!!!!!!! You must read it ASAP if you haven't yet. It's one of my favorites. And you have so many great looking ARCs! I hope you enjoy them all.:)
Haha! Yes its one of my first ones to read from this pile. Thank you and Thanks for stopping by Sarah! 🙂
So many amazing books O____o
I own She Is Not Invisible (can't wait to start!), Resist (didn't like it anywhere near as much as Breathe) and The Coldest Girl in Coldtown (it's quite good, just tricky to get into). I need to get United We Spy Though… 🙂
Great haul! Mine is on my blog. 😀
I know! I really like the sound of SINI! Breathe and Resist I'm reading for a feature so I'm looking forward to it. Though sequels are very hard to come up to the standard to the first book. Thanks for stopping by! 🙂
What wonderful books. I read Stolen a couple of years ago and it was really good! hope you enjoy that one. She is not invisible looks great too!
Here is my Showcase Sunday if you want to take a look:

Thanks Megan. Shadows and Haze were a complete surprise and I love the covers. So I'm looking forward to reading another angel book. 🙂 Thanks for stopping by!
It looks like you didn't mention 'United We Spy' which looks interesting… Did you get that as a gift or buy it? I hope you enjoy 'Coldest Girl' I've heard good things about it. 😀
My blog, aurora lector.
Yes I received United We Spy from the publisher. I love this series, you should really read it and the conclusion to it meant to be good. So I can't wait to both of these books. Thanks for stopping by!
Of course! Looking forward to your reviews~
Ooh, lots of amazing books!
I read Model Misfit earlier on this week and it was such a cute read! Soulmates & Dead Jealous both sound fantastic! I need to get myself a copy of Teardrop when it comes out. It sounds amazing!
I haven't read a Marcus Sedgwick book in years but She Is Not Invisible sounds really good! I'll definitely have to check it out.
Great haul! Happy reading 🙂

Laura @ What's Hot?
Thank you so much! Hehe! Oh wow, how are you finding it? I don't want it to end but I want it to be a good ending! I'm loving City of Glass, best of the series so far I think! 🙂
United We Spy is so good. It's a brilliant conclusion to the end of such a fab series. I can't believe it's over!
I really want to read Soulmates soon because it looks amazing. Can't wait to hear your thoughts!
Happy reading, Emma! 😀
Yay, I'm so glad. I love this series since I was younger so I really want to know how it ends. I don't really want it to be over really either. Thanks Lucy, me neither. Thanks for stopping by!

Me too. I recommend her Perfect Chemistry series by this author. She is brilliant author, one of my favourites I have to say. Thanks for stopping by!
United We Spy looks good. I was tempted to pick it up at the library yesterday, but I need to read the others first.
Thanks for stopping by my blog, and I'm now a follower via Bloglovin'.

El @ So Bookalicious
I know. I can't wait to read them. Thanks for stopping by! 🙂
Wow great haul! I have a few of those myself but I haven't read any of those yet. Hope you enjoy your new books 🙂
Antigoddess was really good, and I'm hoping to read the Coldest Girl in Coldtown soon! I haven't read anything else you've gotten, but I want to read the first Geek Girl book at some point, it sounds awesome! I also like how you made the books look like they were taken with an old polaroid 🙂 Have a good week and enjoy!
Loads of awesome books!!
I also got Antigoddess this week and loved it! I've heard so many great things about Shadows and Haze, so I can't wait to get to read those!
I'm also quite curious about Teardrop, even if the Fallen series wasn't a fave for me.
I'm hoping to get to read my ARC of Resist either this week or early next week!
Happy reading!
My Showcase Sunday: http://pili-inlovewithhandmade.blogspot.com.es/2013/09/showcase-sunday-11.html
I'm loving the Geek Girl series so far. I'm sure you will too.
Did you read the Fallen series by Lauren Kate? I really disliked the first one but am still interested to try out Teardrop.
Great haul!
Happy reading!
Wow, such a great haul! I can't wait to hear reviews on Teardrop by Lauren Kate and I have book envy for The Coldest Girl in Coldtown – heard so many good things about it!
Here's my book haul this week.
Wow, so many new books and they all look AMAZING! Honestly, half of them are already on my to-read list and I have a feeling the rest will follow shortly. I hope you enjoy them and thanks for stopping by my blog 🙂
UNITED WE SPY AND MODEL MISFIT ARE BRILLIANT, TWO BOOKS I LOVED AND RATED 5 STARS! *SQUEALS* I need to read Antigoddess and Stolen badly. Teardrop looks awesome. Great haul, you have so many amazing reads a head of you.
