So last week I went to Portland after a whole year of being away! It was great to be back in my college hometown and it was even better that I got to visit Powell's Books ^^ For those of you not from the Portland, Oregon area, Powells is a HUGE new and used bookstore that is literally an entire city block wide, it's great and they have one of the biggest YA sections I've ever seen. Needless to say I had to reel myself in and was able to find a few deals.

Powells (Yes, all those floors have books!) |
Sweet Evil by Wendy Higgins
The Faerie Ring by Kiki Hamilton
Shadow and Bone by Leigh Bardugo
Wicked Lovely by Marissa Marr
And even more exciting the copy of The Faerie Ring I found at Powells was signed and there was also a signed bookmark inside!
Ebooks:
Obsidian by Jennifer Armentrout (Had to see what all this Daemon hype is about!)
Hearts at Stake by Alyxandra Harvey
Awesome week. Kiki's book is such a great read! Enjoy!
ReplyDeleteI know I am so curious about Daemon and Obsidian. I still need to read it. I also am dying to see what the hype is about with Sweet Evil and Shadow and Bone. Those seem to be two great reads everyone is talking about. Wicked Lovely was okay and I wasn't a fan of the Faerie Ring but the cover is pretty and awesome that it is singed. Hope you enjoy it!
