So this week was quite a lovely week for me. I got some super exciting news and I’m still in shock about it!

The Infernals by John Connolly

The Infernals by John Connolly Amazon | BD | Goodreads

You might recognize this one, I’ve gotten it before for review from Netgalley. I purchased it [actually I WAS going to purchase and lovely Pabkins gifted it to me!] It’s going to be a very special book on my shelf forever.

me - quoted, back cover up top, inside cover on bottomI am a HORRID picture taker but that is me quoted! On the back cover [up at the top] and then inside! I can’t believe it still. I feel so honored.

The Gates by John Connolly, Die for Me by Amy Plum

Die For Me by Amy Plum Amazon | BD | Goodreads

So excited that Die For Me was on sale [thanks Amanda for tipping me off!] It’s been on my wish list forever now. The Gates is the first book in the Samuel Johnson series, The Infernals being the second, and I’ve wanted to read it ever since I read The Infernals [ Pabkins also gifted this one to me *muah!* ]

    1. Great books! Of Poseidon looks super good … I’ve seen that around a lot lately! I’ve only read one other John Connolly book, but I really liked it. I should really check out more of his stuff!

      Happy reading! :)

    2. The Gates looks like my kind of book! Love the cover! Great haul!

      Also- I am a new follower on the RSS :-)

      • Thanks so much for dropping in and following :D yeah The Infernals was so awesome, I can’t wait to read The Gates myself!

    3. Isn’t it a great feeling when someone likes your quote and includes it on the book. I have one like that and it has a place of honor on my shelf. Here is my post:

    4. Ooh..someof these I bought and some I am reviewing and some I have on my wishlist! ENJOY

      • Yes yes! the review books sure do stack up quickly. I started going back and forth on Immortal Rules and Passage switching off every 2 chapters but the Passage is hurting my wrist so I put myself on the library waiting list for the kindle copy cause I’m not buying a kindle copy when i already bought the paperback. From now on anything over 500 pages = buy the kindle not the physical copy.

    5. Great set! Yay for Die for Me. I loved that book.

      • Yes, I feel like I’ve seen Die for Me all OVER the place, so excited it was on a fantastic sale so I was able to snag it up! Now to find time to read it, hehe :D Thanks for dropping in!

    6. lsdkfjsödfoi You were quoted! I know it’s sort of stupid, but I’m so excited right now for you. XD

    7. Wow, great selections this week! Die For Me is awesome and I’m in love with the cover. Have seen the sequel’s, Until I Die cover? It’s totally to die for. Sweet Evil is rather hot and popular these days. My GR buddy was willing to sacrifice her liver to have it. Haha.

    8. I have Die for me but haven’t read it…maybe at the end of the month *-*
      AND
      OH MY GOD!! P. you got THE CALLING???????????????

      • Thanks I definitely hope I do! A few of the books I’ve read this year have disappointed me. Hoping none of these do!

        • I didn’t even know it was a review copy T_T
          Argh!!! Enjoy The Calling, Kelley is one of my favorite authors!! And I have only read her YA books so far!
          I really hope I get to buy Sweet Evil sometime!

    10. I’ve got those two John Connolly ones. Great books and Blackbirds I preordered just waiting now for book depository to deliver it.

      • I can’t wait to read the John Connolly ones. Turns out I also have Nocturnes on my unread anthology bookshelf in my library. Blackbirds sounds like it is going to be great!

    11. I also loved Die For Me! I’m glad you were able to get it for a steal. And congrats on being published! That’s quite an honor.

    12. JOHN CONNOLLY! YES. ♥ For so long I put him off and put him off (I kept getting him mixed up with Michael Connelly). One of the blogs I follow posted a review of The Book of Lost Things and I knew right then and there I needed to read it. I found a copy at work and instantly fell in love.

      & that’s beyond awesome you were quoted!! :) Congratulations!

      My IMM!

    13. A big congrats for the quote. I love the cover of infernals. SOme new great books to read, I hope you”ll enjoy them all!

    14. *high five* for being quoted!

      G

    15. Hey April! You came by and looked at my book spine poems, so I thought I would cruise by your place. So, CONGRATS on being quoted on the actual book!! Wow – I didn’t even know that could HAPPEN if you don’t work for the New York Times or something(!)

      • Thanks so much for visiting back! Thanks! I still am like in SHOCK, you know before I entered the world of book blogging a year ago I had NO IDEA they would sometimes use bloggers quotes either! :D

    16. The Calling was so good! I loved it. I hope you enjoy it! Here’s my IMM!

      • Awesome – I probably won’t get to it for awhile – heck I might even wait til right before the third book in the trilogy comes out. I’m weird like that.

    17. I bought the calling right when it came out. I was so curious how the story will go on. And I have to day, the second book was amazing. So much tension, I was glued to the pages.

      My IMM post

    18. The first book was a bit slow and almost disappointing, but the second is so much better and I really want to know now what happens next. I hate waiting for the next book, especially if it’s another year or so.

    19. I’m hearing SUCH amazing things about Sweet Evil, and I am SO excited for Sweet Evil! You lucky thing! Amazing mailbox!
