EARCS I GOT THIS WEEK:
BOOKS I GOT THIS WEEK:
Bookstore is one of those rare E-Arcs where the synopsis just sounds so good that I ignore the fact that it is an adult book and go ahead and request anyway. I am hoping it goes better than the last couple of adult books I took a chance on.
The final three books this week were all purchased. The Darkest Minds is a book that I read and LOVED as an ARC, then bought a copy for my classroom and now (as my classroom copy is seeing some of the wear and tear that comes with being my #1 most checked out book) I am purchasing a second copy for my personal library.
Jekel Loves Hyde was a Chapters Bargain Book that I picked up for $5. I read one of Fantasky's other books and it wasn't bad. I think this one will appeal to the girly girls in my classes.
My most anticipated purchase is Dark Triumph. I enjoyed Grave Mercy but lost my connection with the main character as the book went on. Dark Triumph, however, follows Sybella, a very mysterious character from the first book and I am really excited to learn more about her. I think this will have to get bumped to the top of the TBR pile as I already have a student anxiously awaiting her chance to read it as soon as I am finished.

Eep, I am so excited to read Dark Triumph! I really loved Grave Mercy, and Sybella sounds like such a fantastic and mysterious main character. I can't wait to delve into her secrets. Also, I got The Darkest Minds as well this week! It sounds so fantastic, and I'm dying to start it.
Lovely haul! <3

I keep hearing that Dark Triumph is even better than Grave Mercy! I hope so, because it sounds great but Grave Mercy was only okay for me. Enjoy your new books! :)
My Stacking the Shelves
I liked The Darkest Minds too. I also got Dark Triumph and hope it doesn't sit on my stack as long as Grave Mercy did before I find time to read it. Come see what I got at Inside of a Dog and Ms. Martin Teaches Media. Happy reading!
