Nocturnal Book Reviews: The Postman Knock #1

The Postman Knock #1

Sunday, July 08, 2012 | Posted by kara-karina@Nocturnal Book Reviews

As you can see I've decided to make some changes to my IMM meme simply because I don't feel like it suits current blog theme.

The Postman Knock is inspired by In My Mailbox from The Story Siren, and you are more than welcome to use it.

Good morning, peeps!

I hope you're all having a lovely day!

It's most probably raining in good old England, so no summer for us. However, I have a 2 weeks worth uber awesome book pile to make up for the shitty weather :)

Here we go...

Won

Huge thanks to Smexy Books!

Thanks to Bastard Books!

Bought

For review

Thank you very much Angie Fox, Alex Taylor and Penguin UK!

The Chemickal Marriage was a pleasant surprise as I've just finished reading the first book The Glass Books of The Dream Eaters - it was weird and charming. So I'm looking forward to book#2.

Overall, I love my prrecious pile of yummy bookish goodies :)

How was yours?

Music video

You are not gonna thank me for this, folks ;)) but I think this song and video are hilarious - choreography, sound and the bodybuilders... So cool!

Happy Sunday!

Birgit said...: Ha, love your new title for your weekly book haul!
I've got Nightshifted on my wishlist too, but I probably won't buy it until August or September, because *mumbles incoherently to herself* I went on a wee shopping spree on AwesomeBooks. I know I know I had a plan of not buying more than twelve books (physical ones at that because eBooks obviously don't count) but then I received that 20%-Off coupon code and the rest is history. And to top it off, my wee Kindle has landed as well this week. I've read my first book on it already :-D and I like that gadget, I really do. Granted it's different to my "old" Aluratek, and Rikki already scolded me, but so far I'm happy with it.; 8 July 2012 07:22
Mel said...: You always have such great books! I think my copy of God Save the Queen has been stuck at the post office as I wasn't in and haven't been able to pick it up yet. I really want to read the MJ Scott series!; 8 July 2012 08:30

My keeper shelf said...: God save the queen looks fab, as does Matheus. What fine man candy, although he reminds me of someone and I can't for the life of me remember who, it's going to bug me all day now!; 8 July 2012 15:40
