ReplyDeleteI read This is What Happy Looks like this past week and loved it! Hope you do, too! :D
ReplyDeleteWow I would have never imagined that you have not read the famous BDB series. I love that series and can not wait for the latest book to come out in a few weeks. I just hope school allows me the time to read all the yummy pages of it lol.
ReplyDeleteWell happy reading!

ReplyDeleteSins & Needles! That one was so damn good, I hope you love it. I think you will. This is What Happy looks like is one that I am so excited about. I haven't read her previous book but I heard nothing but great things about it. Wonderful haul!
ReplyDeleteI got a few of the freebies you bought. Maybe we'll read together. YAY for BDB!!!! I want This Is What Happy Looks Like so bad! Can't wait for you to read Elle's books too. Yes, have alcohol handy for Groupie.

ReplyDeleteGreat book haul Andrea! I see you got Rule. I haven't gotten that one yet, so I can't wait to hear what you think. Every time I see the cover I feel like that guy is looking at me saying, "You know you want me." He's so hot.

I'm so jealous of This Is What Happy Looks Like! I've been seeing it all over the place and I can't wait to check it out because I loved the first book :) I hope you enjoy everything!
ReplyDeleteMy IMM
Very good group of books. My husband likes the BDB books, but I have not had the chance to read them.I am curious to see if you change your mind about the series. Enjoy all your books!
ReplyDeleteOooooohhhhhhhhh This Is What Happy Looks Like!!! I have it pre-ordered. I also really want to read Sins & Needles!!! Enjoy! Thanks for stopping by!
ReplyDeleteI love your 'search term' section, you also get such interesting searches. Mine are always about the same thing each week. I hope you enjoy Dark Lover...I was a bit iffy on it when I started because some things are so exaggerated but once I got into it became a bit addicting,lol.
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by and I hope you have an awesome week!
Awesome haul babe!! I got declined for This Is What Happy Looks Like. (what is with her book titles being really long) My copy of Dear Cassie should be here soon!! So excited. I needed a finished copy of it too. I pre-ordered it in Jan. You got so many really great books this week.
ReplyDeleteA Terrible Love is on my wishlist! I just found it last week but with the move I forgot to buy it. I also did not know that Never Too Far was out already until my sister asked me if I had already read it. A couple of days I go offline and I miss so much! Sins & Needles was awesome. I saw Comfort Food after I read Captive In the Dark. It sounds similar and really good but I can only take so many mind fucks and Captive In the Dark was it for me! (At least until I read Seduced In the Dark).
