It’s been a couple weeks since my last mailbox. I haven’t really been anywhere, or spent much money lately, which has been good. Just reading and studying. I preordered Dearly, Departed a couple months ago, it’s one I plan on reading over summer. I haven’t got a copy of Halo at the moment, so I’ll have to hurry up and get myself one because Hades is looking lonely on my shelves. The two Evermore books were borrowed from the library because I wasn’t sure whether I’ll like them enough to spend my money on them yet. The other four I ordered at an online discount bookstore for around $2 – $4 each. I’ve been wanting Hold Me Closer, Necromancer for a while. It’s meant to be like the short-lived TV series Reaper, which was a favourite of mine, so I was excited when I found this one cheap.

Hey Brett! Hope you enjoy Divergent just as much as many of us had. Dearly Departed looks great. Meaning I really want to read it. I seem to have zombie books on my shelves but donโt really get around to them. Must be a reason I just canโt figure out.
Happy reading ๐
Divergent was AMAZING! Definitely one of my favs this year! Hope you enjoy it too! Halo was…very cliched imo but I know a lot of people who enjoyed it, so I’m looking forward to your thoughts when you do get a copy! Dearly Departed looks awesome too – I need to read more zombie books!
Enjoy ๐
You got some GREAT books!! Divergent is wonderful. I think I am going blind but the maroon color on your page is hard to read! DAMN EYES!
I think it’s purple, but yes, I’m finding that too.
OMG, totally awesome haul. The paperback of Divergent is awesoooome, I kinda want it instead of my hardcover one XD Anyway, thanks for sharing and happy reading!!

I loved Reaper too so it will be interesting to see if it’s similar.
Looks like you have had a great book week. I liked Dearly Departed. It was really different.

Great stash. ๐ Dearly Departed is awesome (I feel like I’ve said that about 100 times lately!), and Hold Me Closer Necromancer is on my wishlist too. I won the first three of the Evermore books, otherwise I would have got them from the library. Equally unsure.. but gotta try it, right?
