IMM #8 and Sunday Treat Halloween edition
This week has totally flown by, and right now I'm exhausted.
Halloween is not celebrated that much here, so I'm not expecting any kids treat or tricking on our quiet street, but I'm buying my pumpkin damn it! and putting it in the window ;)
Bookwise I had a very good week again, so here is my haul...
Egalleys

Love Leanna Renee Hieber, and the premise sounds fantastic. I'm so glad they approved my request! Also this book is part of my Netgalley Month reading.

I love spies in historicals, so I really couldn't resist this book. However so far it's been a slow read - too much thinking and info dumps and too little action.
For review

Vampires and librarians? This should be interesting :)

Just a reminder.
Don't forget that today is the last day to enter my giveaway for If Angels Burn/Winter Queen.
Monday I'm participating in Spooktacular Giveaway Hop, and man have I got a treat for you! Giveaway will be international of course.
Between now and Halloween I have another 2 giveaways planned so keep an eye out :)

Back to our music...
The video is wacky, but I love that song!
and man candies Vampire edition...
Lestat (who is by far more interesting in the book than in the movie Queen of The Damned)
Jean Claude from Anita Blake. That there is no actual picture just tells you that no man yet came close to that perfection *grinning*
Spike (do I have to even say where from?)
Out. For. A. Walk. B*tch
You remember? That was priceless.
So, any vampire to add? I know there are loads :)
Cicada looks good! I also want to read Darker Still but I've managed to avoid Net Galley this week. Awesome haul! Happy reading!!!
ReplyDeleteOh I love that pic of Spike!! Just watched Supernatural and he was in it! Not as Spike, but the actor!
ReplyDeleteI got Darker Still too! Can't wait to read it! Happy Reading!
My IMM goes up tomorrow, so be sure to stop by!
Have a GREAT weekend!

Kara,
ReplyDeleteGreat mailbox. I'm looking forward to your reviews.

VERY awesome week Kara! Hope you enjoy everything! :)
ReplyDeleteSpike was my favourite Vampire ever - I love him! Before Edward Cullen and the Salvators, Spike ruled the grey area of blood drinkers!
ReplyDeleteI hope you like Darker Still - I've just discovered Leanna Renee Hieber and cant' wait to try her books!
"Out. For. A. Walk. B*tch
ReplyDeleteYou remember? That was priceless." YES YES YES!! Loved that. xD
I'm reading Cicada at the moment, it's pretty good! Gonna have the author over on the blog in a couple of weeks time, gonna be awesome. :)
I downloaded Jenny Pox too! :) Can't wait to read it. I love your books, hope you'll enjoy reading them. Oh, and Cicada is on my TBR list as well :)
ReplyDeleteHave a great weekend!

I agree that Darker Still sounds amazing! I can't wait to read my copy! You had an awesome week!
ReplyDeleteWhat an awesome week of books for you too. Thanks for stopping by earlier. I'm reading Darker Still right now and enjoying it.
ReplyDeleteYou have some good books this week, plus also some books I have not heard of.
ReplyDeleteHappy Reading!!!!
Thanks for stopping by my IMM
Great reads! I also received Darker Still, but forgot to mention it. Hope you enjoy it, and happy reading! :)
ReplyDeleteJenny Pox keeps popping up in posts this week. I'm going to have to check that one out. Another great IMM for you!
ReplyDeleteOoh Darker Still! It looks great, enjoy. And I've heard really good things about Jenny Pox! Happy reading :).
ReplyDeleteGreat haul and thanks for the free Jenny Pox link.
ReplyDeleteLove your mailbox this week...Happy Reading! Thanks for stopping by my IMM this week...oh and that picture of Spike...love it!!!
ReplyDeleteGreat set! India Black sounds fabulous. I'm very interested in Darker Still too.
ReplyDeleteMy IMM
Nice mailbox! I am really looking forward to reading Darker Still! Enjoy your new reads!
ReplyDeleteI love India Black and I've got Darker Still and Touch of Power to read, too. I'm glad you hopped by my blog today! Looks like we have similar tastes :)
ReplyDeleteI think so, Jenny!:) I like India Black, but I wished they had less info dumps. I've got diploma in history and they feel like something taken from a lecture... Too much and completely unnecessary.
ReplyDeleteHi, Kara-karina!
ReplyDeleteThe India Black cover is gorgeous! It's disappointing that the historical content is so "textbookish."
I heard Jenny Pox is a good one! I downloaded that one, too.
Enjoy your new books, and thanks for stopping by to check out my mailbox!
