'Post' on Sundays: #1


'Post' on Sundays is a weekly/bi-weekly post here on Forever 17 Books where I can share with you the books I have received, bought and borrowed. (Is the name cheesy? Y/N?) This post was inspired by 'In My Mailbox' by The Story Siren (and Harry Potter!). Though I will not be taking part in her meme from now on, I choose to give credit where credit is due. :)


These are the books I got over the past two weeks.

Won:





Anna and the French Kiss by Stephanie Perkins: I won this over at Catching Books (Thank you Sarah!)







Bought:




Tempting the Best Man by J. Lynn









eLibrary:




Finnikin of the Rock by Melina Marchetta









For Review:




One Moment by Kristina McBride








Timpiece (Hourglass, #2) by Myra McEntire







Glitch by Heather Anastasiu










I would love to hear what post you all got this week! Leave a comment and a link if you got one!

    2. Well, her books are usually contemporaries and this one is fantasy. But she is an amazing writer! Can't wait to hear what you think. I haven't read this series yet.
