  2. Ha! I really want to read more smut, too, as silly as that sounds. But I also don't know where to start, because it seems like all the new, popular books are 50 Shades rip-offs, or Twilight fanfic. I should probably broaden my blog-following horizons a little more. Meh.

    I also got approved for Insomnia. It sounds a little like Lisa McMann's Wake trilogy, but maybe a little darker. That's okay though, because I love Lisa McMann so I don't mind reading more.

    Thank you again for sending Legend! <3

  4. LOL, FSoG was complete BS. Ugh.. It was so bad. The emotional storyline was probably the best thing about it, but other than that it was just goddamn awful, pardon my language. It was just that - a fanfiction. Something that every single one of us could write. The writing was really simple and Anastasia Steele is even more frustrating than Bella Swan. It'll be an interesting experience if you decide to read it, though. I like the new cover better for Legend, it's SO PRETTTAAA-HH!!! Fuse is so pretty, too. I haven't read the first book yet, but I want to. Insomnia - ugh! I want to know what you think of it already! I can't believe the books you got this week - they're all fantsatic! Have a great weekend, Jenni!!

  5. You have some awesome prizes that you are giving away in Your Blogoversary. The books you got are awesome. I read those S.J. Day books many years ago, I'm really surprised that they changed the covers.

  6. Ugh, Fifty Shades. Yeah, don't read that. Stick with Eve of Darkness and some other not-awful smut.

    Ick. Fifty Shades.

    Anyway, I'm glad to see you got Insomnia, too! It's released in June, so I might not get to it for a while, but it's taking all my willpower to not start it right now. I absolutely love anything in the horror genre having to do with dreams - I blame my love for Nightmare on Elm Street - so Insomnia sounds perfect x100. Can't wait to start it!

  7. Happy Saturday, girly!! You are going to freaksing love Legend! Well, you better, or else. OR. ELSE. I should really read the Pure series at some point. The covers are purdy. (and yes, they sound good too)

    And, god, do not read Fifty Shades of Grey. You will want to claw your eyes out. It's not fun.

  10. I still need to read that Marie Lu series! Meanwhile, you are ALL about the matching books! Ha!

    I've had Pure on my shelf for SO LONG ... I really need to read it soon. :)

  13. I love that you had to buy the other cover to Legend too! So funny, but so many of us just have to have all of our covers match! I'm the same way!
    Great stack, enjoy reading them!

  15. I'm reading Legend right now and it is FANTASTIC! I didn't think I would like it but I love it
    Check out my IMM/STS!!

  16. I'm excited to see what you think of Prodigy/Legend. I wasn't a huge fan of it but many people seem to have loved it! That's so funny that your husband got you a Sylvia Day book! xD Haha! Smut is good sometimes! ;)
    I didn't know that Pure was a good book. I probably should check into that soon! :)
    How exciting! It's your birthday tomorrow! :D

  17. I'm glad you were able to find the matching cover of Legend. I also hope you enjoy your smut ;)

    Happy early birthday!

  18. Hi, Jenni!

    You have some great acquisitions here! The only one I wouldn't be interested in is "Eve of Darkness", since I don't read stuff like "Fifty Shades of Gray". As for "Insomnia", I would of course get a printed edition, since I don't like e-books.

    Thanks for sharing these! Hope you enjoy them!! :)

  19. YAY you found Legend!! Enjoy all your new books!

  20. I TOTES understand why you felt you had to repurchase Legend. There's nothing more painful and gets me more peevish than COVERS THAT DON'T MATCH. And Pure and Fuse look way to whacked out and disturbing for my poor mind so I refuse to give them a whirl no matter HOW GORGEOUS I find the covers. And rock on for some smut! Your hubby is too funny ;P

  21. Oh, I'm set to read Eve of Darkness soon. Excited b I really liked Fuse, but had a harder time getting into it. Can't wait to see what you think.

    Enjoy!

  22. Glad you were able to get your covers all matched up—that is serious business for me too!

    Fab book haul week, happy reading! :-)

  23. Oooh! Guess I'm going to Costco this weekend, I hope it'll still be there! :)

    ReplyDelete
  24. Heh, it's funny that your husband got you smut! If you ever come across one that is a good one for breaking into the genre, let me know, because I've read Fifty Shades of Grey (on a dare) and it definitely wasn't for me.

    I might have to check out Costco soon... stupid cover changes. It really must be a ploy to get us to spend more money on the same books we've already bought...

    I remember hearing good things about Pure when it came out, so I hope you are able to get into Fuse - I'm curious how that one will fare in reviews.

    ReplyDelete
  25. I actually am curious to see your thoughts on the Sylvia Day book. I HATED 50 Shades but this writer might actually have some talent. LOL.

    You are such an OCD cover biatch! That's just crazy!

    I really enjoyed Fuse. It was freaking long though. You are right. Can't wait to see your review.

  26. I love Insomnia's cover, looking forward to your thoughts on it.
