The Sunday Post is a weekly meme hosted by Kimba the Caffeinated Book Reviewer.
Stacking the Shelves is a meme hosted by Tynga’s Reviews.
I have decided to try to participate in all of their memes with only one post…thus
BOOK HAUL:
Brought:
The Darkest Minds
The Darkest Minds #1
by Alexandra Bracken
I heard a lot of good things about this one and it was free on iBooks and Nook so…
In Time
The Darkest Minds #1.5

And of course, I couldn’t resist getting the e-novella that comes after it.
Borrowed from library:
Never Fade

This one is self explanatory… gotta be prepared in case of cliff hanger.
Won:
I owe Kelley at Oh, the Books! a huge, HUGE thank you for this awesome gift. (Sorry for the crappy picture quality. This is what happens when I take pictures on my iPod instead of a good camera.)

- Thoughtful?
- Review ?
When can my school life calm down? This week has just been full of due dates and test which is why I’ve been kind of absent. I need to work on scheduling more posts. I’m participating in the Blog Ahead challenge and right now I have made zero progress. Zero. I literally have no scheduled posts for November, forget December. -__-
Also, someone suggested I turn Investigated into a discussion meme of some sort. Basically I’ll have a list of topics (one for each week) and everyone can write their own post about it and link up on mine when it goes up. If you’re interested, let me know. If more than 10 people want to do it than I might just make it official… if not, feel free to write your own post anyways and link up in the comments. I’d love to see what you guys think!
How was your week?
Enjoy your books!
The Darkest Minds! That one was actually free on Amazon this past week so I picked it up, even though I already own the hard copy! LOL! Enjoy if you haven’t read it. Really great series! My STS
You can never have too many copies of one book, especially if its a good one!
Thanks for stopping by Brooke! 🙂
Sounds like a really haul. Congrats on winning the giveaway. Nobody has been on my to track down list. Happy reading.
here’s mine.
Nobody is definitely worth a read.
Thanks for stopping by Danica! 🙂
Don’t think I have heard about the books but I will check them out 🙂
Definitely check out The Darkest Minds series. I cannot express in words how awesome it is.
Thanks for stopping by! 🙂
I haven’t made much more progress than you for Blog Ahead. I have three WoW posts scheduled for December, but that’s it. Discussion posts memes are fun and I’m always looking for ways to bring more to my blog, so I’d probably participate.
The Darkest Minds looks really good! I picked up a copy for myself not too long ago, but I haven’t gotten to it yet.
Hey, at least you have some WOW posts ready to go. I literally have nothing. I’ll let you know if I do decide to make a meme… coming up with a whole list of new topics is going to be hard. I’m already starting to repeat topics…
Definitely give The Darkest Minds a go. It is one of the best books (and series) I have read. 🙂
Thanks for stopping by Kaitlin! 🙂
A nice haul! I really enjoyed the Darkest Minds.
Happy reading. Sharon – Obsession with Books
I loved it too!
Thanks for stopping by Sharon! 🙂
Nice haul! I hope you enjoy your new books!
Come and check out OUaT’s STS !
Thanks for stopping by Leydy! 🙂
I’ve been curious about Darkest Mind, but never get around to reading it. Hope you enjoy your books.
You should definitely give The Darkest Minds a read… it’s one of the best books I’ve read all year.
Thanks for stopping by Christy! 🙂
I still haven’t read The Darkest Minds which is horrible because I’ve heard SO many great things about it. The thing is: I started reading it when the first book had just come out, but then I never really got into it so I just kind of left it there. Anyways, now I couple of years have passed and I am 100% ready to pick it up again! 🙂
Thanks for stopping by Book Angel!
You should definitely give it another go! It really is as good as a lot of people say. And you know, second time’s the charm!
Thank you for stopping by! 🙂
Such lovely books. Especially Never Fade and The Darkest Minds. I don’t have my copy yet and I’m really hoping I will soon 🙂
Here’s mine:

I got The Darkest Minds, too, and I really look forward to it!
You won so many cool books! I hope you’ll enjoy them all, Emz.
Have a fantastic Sunday and an amazing week.
I really enjoyed reading it. Hopefully you will as well!
Thanks for stopping by Lexxie! 🙂
Sounds like a busy week, and definitely interested! 🙂 I’ve read The Darkest Minds, was loving it until a certain scene which totally ruined it for me. 🙁
Which scene? I must know!
Thanks for stopping by Kirsty-Marie! 🙂
That looks like a great prize package. COngrats!
It was!
Thanks for stopping by Steph! 🙂
I’m in the middle of Blog Ahead as well, and I didn’t have the best week either :/ The first week I had lots of motivation, but right now… not so much! Hope you have a great week and school calms down a little 🙂 Happy reading!
Hopefully we’ll both find more motivation for Blog Ahead and get more posts scheduled!
Thanks for stopping by Alma! 🙂
Great books this week! Love that prize package. That’s a fun mail day! Good luck with all your school deadlines. It always seems like everything hits all at once. Have a fantastic week!
Thanks, I really need the luck!
