Me on This Week's Book Week (56)

This Week's Book Week is rather similar to Stacking the Shelves hosted by Tynga's Reviews only with far more rambling and a less witty title. ;)

Odd weather. Pouring in the morning, bright and sunny in the afternoon, clouding over in the evening.

I really need to stop requesting e-galleys. But they keep saying yes and all. I just hope I don't end up with weird screen vision headaches because they really suck.

I went through another one of those spans of time where I read a few books in a few days and wrote up the reviews right after reading the books. It was awesome, but then I felt tired because my head was crammed full of a lot of words and worlds and plot points and characters and thoughts and feelings. And then I wasn't really sure what to put in reviews that didn't sound repetitive and useless. Maybe I need a break to read some non-review books.

Reviews going up next week will feature Ink by Amanda Sun (Tuesday) and In the After by Demitria Lunetta (Friday). :)
Received:
Indelible by Dawn Metcalf (from Harlequin Teen through NetGalley)
The Weight of Souls by Bryony Pearce (from Angry Robot through NetGalley)
Backward Glass by David Lomax (from Flux through NetGalley)
Never Fade by Alexandra Bracken (from Disney Book Group through NetGalley)

Bought:
The Oathbreaker's Shadow by Amy McCulloch
