Me on This Week's Book Week (171)

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. ;)

Hi all! Fall is slowly on its way, sort of. I think the hot summer dried out a lot of trees so the leaves have changed rather quickly on some trees. But the recent rain means that lawmowing must continue. *sobs in a corner*

On Saturday I went to the preview event that Raincoast Books was hosting, which was great. I know the Toronto book bloggers get together a lot at signings and events, but the ones out in Vancouver don't as much, so this was a chance to see everyone and to meet some new people. And to talk about all the books coming out over the winter and in the spring. So thanks to Raincoast for the ARCs and the swag I didn't take pictures of (buttons and bookmarks and a tote bag and cookies). :)

Reviews going up this coming week will feature The Scorpion Rules by Erin Bow (Tuesday) and Walk on Earth a Stranger by Rae Carson (Friday). :)
