Hey guys! How has your week been? Mine has been pretty good. Here are the books that I have gotten for review in the last 2 and 1/2 weeks. They I had no books for a long time, and then blog tour books, publisher books and author books just all started coming in at once.
My TBR pile must hate me (or love me?)
Books I got the last 2 1/2 weeks:
*Thank you so much to Astraea Press, Clean Teen Publishing, Athena Alley Press, Swoon Romance, and all of the authors for these awesome books! *

This Week I have:
Have you guys checked out Kimba’s beautiful new look for her blog? I am so in love with it! Go by and have fun clicking around. I just sat there for a while taking in all of the prettiness 🙂
I have been updating my calendar system for my blog, so things are still under construction here. I am also planning a new feature for the blog, which is always fun.
Other than that, just doing some spring cleaning with emails, bloggy stuff and around the house. Not super fun, but definitely needed.
Be sure to enter my giveaways going on right now:
This giveaway is huge! I have 3 $25 gift cards up for grabs and 13 boxes of books/ prize packs to give away!
Leave me links to your Sunday posts/stacking the shelves in the comments and I will check them out 🙂

Great book haul! Isn’t it funny how we can have slow weeks and then those weeks where we get so many we don’t even know what to do with them all?
Congrats on all the great books. 🙂
