Weekly Report: In Which I Apologize for Not Posting & a Signed Book Giveaway

Weekly Report is my way of showing you from week to week (most of the time) what new books I received and what has gone on in the past week. So basically it's a report for all the awesome that I got and shared! Originally I posted IMM by Story Siren this is just my version with a little extra ;) all book names take you to the Goodreads page.

  So I have to say I am sorry for not doing my weekend post in several weeks.  I am working on trying to go to school and renovating my house so life has been crazy to say the least.  However I do not really feel that is an excuse and I am sorry.  I am actually late in bringing you up to date with the #YEAHYA event I attended recently and a couple I did awhile ago!!  So they will be up this week and next.  To get back into the swing of everything I have set up a giveaway that was going to go with my #YEAHYA post but I figure I will give you all a head start on entering <3  Look at the bottom of the post!!


  Anyway here is what I have gotten over the last month basically:



BOUGHT

Because I was in Toronto and around the corner from a BMV I decided to stop in and see what I could find and well I found these 3 great books!!!  I am super excited for The Arrivals (I love Melissa Marr!!) and can't even explain how excited I was to get it for $9.99!

Seeing I got an ARC of Fire With Fire (see below) and I borrowed the copy I read I thought I should buy a copy to read again so I could be perfectly up to date when I read the 2nd one.  Bought this beauty from Chapters!

WON

NEWS

  So I can not even tell you how excited I was when contacted by an author that I have admired for a long time about using a couple of lines out of my review to be quoted on Amazon!!!  OMG YES!!!  Tangled Tides by Karen Amanda Hooper had quickly become a favourite of mine and I basically happy cried that she even asked me!!  Visit HERE to see and purchase this fantastic read!!! Thank you so much Karen I can't even begin to tell you how honoured I feel!



Please also add it to your GR because honestly YOU WILL LOVE IT!!


GIVEAWAY!


So this is basically going to be a comment giveaway.  You can comment on ANYTHING you want daily to collect entries.  If this gets busy enough I will add something...  I'm not sure if it will be a swag pack (A BIG one with signed & not signed swag) or a book of choice...  You can leave what you would prefer in the comments below.  Please be thoughtful with your comments.  I do not expect a paragraph but any general: "Nice Review" "Thank You" or short things I will delete the entry & I do check.
