The worst thing is that with school and the podcast, I haven't had time to read any of them except If I Stay. I am also beginning to suspect that buying one bookcase might have been underestimating the publishers. Not that I mind!
Here's where it all began, with the lovely Kristi at Story Siren.

You got like a zillion books, love it!
WOW! You got a lot of books! You're so lucky!
I know, I nearly got RSI from typing them. It definitely makes up for last week's empty mailbox that's for sure!
Yeay!! your had a stupendous collection of books. If you stay is a great book and I cannot wait to see what you think of it.
Here's to a great week and happy reading :)
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The Absolutely True Diary of a Part-Time Indian by Sherman Alexie is hilariously. Thoroughly enjoyed it.
Will share how you get so many publishers to send you books? I run a community library and we have zero budget. How do you find time to request and get so many to respond?
Yet another person with a gazillion books in one week! I am slightly envious, yet I can't find the time to read the books I already have so I think getting this many in the mail might send me into one major anxiety attack. ;)
It is hard to find time to read them all. I find myself procrastinating on my school stuff so that I can read what I want. Probably not the best idea.
The Luxe series are awesome, you're going to love them and Meg Rosoff's novels are brilliant. None of hers are ever the same and she has the most individual writing style I've ever read.
WOW! You are one lucky girl!
OH MY GOODNESS!
Wow! Nice list. Enjoy! ;)
You didn't do so bad yourself this week EITHER, Adele! WHOOHOO!
I love the cover you posted for Slam. Much better then the US one at least. I really hope that's the actual cover you have. :-)
And yeah, I had to get a new bookcase to hold my books. It's overflowing!!!

WOW! that is a good haul. I am really looking forward to Savvy.
I am really looking forward to hearing what you think of Savvy and The Boy In the Striped Pyjamas - I love them both!
