Showcase Sunday (#4)


Showcase Sunday is a weekly meme hosted by Vicki at Books, Biscuits and Tea. Its aim is to showcase our newest books or book related swag and to see what everyone else received for review, borrowed from libraries, bought in bookshops and downloaded onto eReaders this week.

I am really excited about my haul this week! I was able to pick up some of my most anticipated ARCs and I was also able to buy and borrow quite a few of the new releases this past week. I honestly don't know which ones to read first and I can't wait to get to all of them! :D 

For Review: 
Midnight City by J. Barton Mitchell 
It seems impossible that I was just gushing about how much I wanted to read this book in my last Waiting on Wednesday post and now I actually am! I'm so excited to start this one! :D 
Dark Star by Bethany Frenette

Bought:
