'Post' on Sundays - #16

**'Post' on Sundays is a weekly/biweekly post here at Forever 17 Books where I can share with you all the goodies I have received, bought or borrowed. This post was inspired by In My Mailbox by The Story Siren.**

Lots of goodies these past 2 weeks!

-The Thing About the Truth by Lauren Barnholdt I won this from Jen Ryland/YA Romantics as part of her Freebie Friday!
-Hidden (Firelight #3) by Sophie Jordan I can't wait to see how this series ends! I won this from Epic Reads. If you aren't a member yet, you should join!

Gifted:
-Second Chance Summer by Morgan Matson And because she is awesome, Jen at Jen Ryland/YA Romantics sent me this ARC to read!
-Storm (Elemental #1) by Brigid Kemmerer Another book from Jen! I am so excited for this one!



Bought:
-If I Lie by Corrine Jackson
-The Dark Light by Sara Walsh

For Review:

-Word and Breath by Susannah Noel I am in the middle of this one and it is really good!


That's it! I hope I can find time to read all of these soon. My 'to-read' pile is starting to get bigger, faster than I can read. That might become a problem soon. . . LOL

What books did you get this week? Leave a link if you got one!

  1. Yay --- hope you enjoy the books I sent and all your other books. I got If I Lie too and am excited about that one. Yeah, that TBR pile is a problem. This week I cheated and read all the short books on my pile and now am left with all the long ones!

    1. Thank you so much once again, Jen! I admit that I sometimes look at my books and try to pick a shorter one too. LOL

  2. I need to check out Word and Breath. See? You're very lucky with blog contests! I have very big hopes for Hidden. Firelight was good but the book after that wasn't so. =/ Anyway, enjoy everything, Sara. :)

    1. I know! And I am so thankful that I am so it can help with my book obsession. LOL Goodreads just plays hard to get. ;) I was the same way with Firelight and Vanish. I liked the first a lot better. Thanks Joy!

  10. Awesome haul Sara! I'm soooooo eager to get my hands on The Dark Light and The Lost Girl! They look fantastic. I have a copy of Last Chance Summer sitting on my shelf for review that I'll hopefully get to soon. Morgan's previous book Amy & Rogers Epic Roadtrip was amazing and a fave of mine, so I can't wait to see that one.

    Hope you love Storm! Those Merrick brothers.....*swoon*
