Me on This Week's Book Week (113)

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. ;)

Hmmm. Another slow summer week has gone by, which means there isn't really anything new for me to ramble about. *sigh* Oh, well.

ComicCon is this weekend. I think I need to experience it in virtual reality, or like in an out of body experience, so I can see everything but not put up with the crowds and the lines and the crazy. Knowing that, it'll probably be a while before I go, if I ever do go. It looks so expensive.

I think UPS hates me, or is useless and keeps losing the packages that one publisher sends me. I really don't want to send this one wonderful publicist another e-mail saying, "I'm so sorry but it's been 4 weeks and it never arrived," and have her scramble to find more copies of those ARCs. I hate that so much. And it's not that they haven't been here. UPS dropped off a different book mail package for me on Monday and a package for my sister on Tuesday. They know where we live. So, cross your fingers and toes and everything and hope it arrives.

Reviews for the coming week will feature The Isobel Journal by Isobel Harrop (Tuesday) and The Girl from the Well by Rin Chupeco (Friday). :)
Bought/borrowed/received:
The Iron Trial by Holly Black & Cassandra Clare (from Scholastic Canada)
The Worlds We Make by Megan Crewe (borrowed from the library)
