Showcase Sunday is a weekly meme hosted by Vicky at Books, Biscuits & Tea. It's an opportunity to share the books you may have bought, borrowed, been sent or gifted. Are you taking part in a similar meme? Feel free to leave a link!
Since my last Showcase post, I shared reviews of Altered by Jennifer Rush, Paper Valentine by Brenna Yovanoff, Through the Ever Night by Veronica Rossi, Everbound by Brodi Ashton, and The Madman's Daughter by Megan Shepherd. I also announced the winner of my latest giveaway. Simply follow the links if you would like to catch up! Here are the new books I received in the last couple of weeks...
Apollyon by Jennifer L. Armentrout
Amber House by Kelly Moore
The Archived by Victoria Schwab
Amber House by Kelly Moore
The Archived by Victoria Schwab
Thanks go to Entangled Publishing, Egmont USA and Spencer Hill Press for the review copies. Apollyon, of course, was one of my most anticipated reads of the year, so I devoured it as soon as it arrived. Not surprisingly, it lived up to my expectations! I'm also really looking forward to reading Just One Day and The Collector - the latter especially sounds like an entertaining book.

Just One Day looks really good so I'm a little jealous! I've seen The Archived around quite a bit this week. Happy reading! :)
ReplyDeleteI hope you get around to Just one Day soon :) I love all of Gayle's books so I've no doubt this will be just as amazing<3 And I finally finished Apollyon! Those steamy scenes were my favourite! Happy Reading Sam :)
ReplyDeleteThe Collector and Apollyon! dying to read them. I'm also curious about the Amber House. I can't wait to see your review on that :D
ReplyDeleteEnjoy them all :D

The cover for Amber House is gorgeous! Can you believe it's my first time coming accross it? :o Have now added it to my tbr!
ReplyDeleteI've heard so much about Just One Day so I'll have to get my hands on a copy... I've never heard of Apollyon but I'll be adding it to my wishlist ;P Enjoy!

I love the cover for Apollyon so much! Just One Day sounds really good, hope you enjoy!
ReplyDeleteHappy reading, and have a lovely week :-)
Oooh The Archived! I keep hearing great things about that one, hope you enjoy it! Everyone is excited about Apollyon too, though I still have to catch up with that series! Happy reading :).
ReplyDeleteOf course I can't wait to read your review of Apollyon, but I'm also VERY curious about The Archived. I hope you'll get a chance to read it soon. Amber House has such a gorgeous cover, but I've learned to fear those. Hopefully I'm wrong this time.
ReplyDeleteEnjoy all your books, Sam!
0.0 Just One Day! So excited to see it being to popular! I can't wait to dive into her books!
ReplyDeleteHappy Reading! :)
My Haul: http://wwwthebookshelves.blogspot.com/2013/02/new-to-shelves-14-one-with-ten.html
Oh great book haul!! I can't wait to see your thoughts on The Collector and Apollyon. I got to meet Victoria Scott yesterday--so eager to read her book.
ReplyDeleteI'll be looking forward to your thoughts on Just One Day, Amber House and The Archived. They all look to be really great books! :)
ReplyDeleteAll those covers look stunning together with the different colours and contrasts.
Happy reading! :)
YAY for Just One Day Sam! I think it's Gayle's best book yet, judging by how long it took me to form a coherant review for it! Rachel really enjoyed the mystery behind Amber House, the reviews for it have been incredible so far, so I hope it lives up to your expectations! Notes From Ghost Town has such a gorgeous cover, I'm off to see what it's all about! Happy reading! :)
ReplyDeleteI can't wait to see what you think of The Collector and Notes from Ghost Town - both sound so good! I loved Just One Day, so I hope you do too, and The Archived and Amber House are two books I have waiting on my shelves as well. I've heard fantastic things about both of them, so I'll have to get to them soon. Amazing haul this week, Sam! :)
ReplyDeleteI've heard nothing but great things about Just One Day, so I hope you enjoy it Sam :). Notes from Ghost Town seems really interesting too. I hope you enjoy all your books Sam!
ReplyDeleteHappy Reading (:
Some wonderful reads up there. I am very excited to check out The Archived as I loved the Near Witch and I really want to read Notes from a Ghost Town it sounds so interesting. Have a wonderful week, Sam!
ReplyDeleteFabulous books! JUST ONE DAY is fantastic, and I've heard THE ARCHIVED is incredible too.
ReplyDeleteHope you enjoy everything :)
Some fab looking reads here!
ReplyDeleteHope you enjoy them all!
SO many great books you got there Sam! Im SO excited for Just One Day!! and EVERYONE is crazy about The Collector!! Happy reading! Will be looking forward to your reviews :D
ReplyDelete- Farah @ MajiBookshelf
I'm so curious to see what you'll think of Just One Day! Also, Apollyon! I'm glad she released an in-between novella so I'm not QUITE as on pins and needles, haha. I'm excited to read The Archived. :D
ReplyDeleteOkay, I can personally voice for The Archived and The Amber House. The latter has a rather annoying love triangle but the writing is gorgeous and the story is atmospheric. And The Archived also has an annoying love triangle but the premise is brilliant and one of the characters, Wes, deserves a medal or something for being so utterly awesome. Enjoy the books!
ReplyDeleteThe Collector!! Can't wait to see what you think of it. Amber House sounds like a good mystery. I'm adding it to my wishlist. Thanks for sharing :)
ReplyDeleteEeee, Just One Day! I'm really looking forward to reading that one. Hope you enjoy it! :D
ReplyDeleteWow, they all look great!!! Nice collection!!!
ReplyDeleteThe Collector...eep was that released already? It is on my must have list! The Sunday Post
ReplyDeleteNot quite yet. It's being released in April, but I requested a review copy from the author's publicist. There's information about that on her website if you're interested!
DeleteGreat collection, you have some brilliant books to read there! *jealous face* ;) Just One Day, Amber House and The Archived all look brilliant. I still haven't read a Jennifer L Armentrout book yet but I have Obsidian on my TBR pile and it looks fantastic. Happy reading, Sam! :)
ReplyDeleteOh Sam, you always have such epic book hauls! Seriously, I'm practically drooling over the brilliance of your new reads!
ReplyDeleteThe Collector and Apollyon look fantastic! I really need to get my hands on them. And the front cover for Apollyon is stunning, like the other books in that series.
Enjoy all of your lovely looking new books, Sam! I'll be looking forward to your reviews! :D
Just One Day looks pretty good I had the chance to read a part of The Archived and loved it. I can't wait to get a physical copy!! Hope you enjoy!
ReplyDeleteHere's my Showcase Sunday!
Wow! Awesome books this week, Sam! I'm excited to hear what you think of The Collector. I also got a copy of Apollyon and I can't wait to dive into it! Also, let me know how Just One Day goes for you! I've been hearing so many mixed things, so I'm not sure. If you like it, I'll probably get a copy! :)
ReplyDeleteEnjoy your books, Sam! :)

Oh, I am always jealous of your book hauls, Sam! JUST ONE DAY and THE COLLECTOR? *swoons* AMBER HOUSE sounds pretty good, too. :)
ReplyDeleteWell, hope you enjoy these! Have a lovely week!
I want The Collector! I hope it doesn't disappoint. I hear Apollyon doesn't have a cliffhanger, so yay! Amber House was a pleasant surprise for me, so I hope you enjoy it too. Definitely some creepy moments. Enjoy your reads, Sam. :)
ReplyDeleteOh my lovely Apollyon - I wish to have you! :) I'm like checking my pre-order everyday xD Huh I need more Aiden :) In other news - I've finished Just One Day recently and what an lovely story it was.

ReplyDeleteThe Collector... mmhmm. Hope you love it. I'm crossing my fingers to get on the blog tour. :)
ReplyDeleteJust One Day! I hope this is a fantastic read for you, Sam!
ReplyDeleteJust One Day, The Collector, Apollyon, and The Archived!!! I'm hoping to borrow a copy of Apollyon soon! Need to see what happens with Alex!
ReplyDeleteGreat titles, Sam! Just One Day and The Archived, sound especially fab :)
ReplyDeleteYou got a great haul! I've heard great things about The Archived. I'm curious about The Collector. I'm guessing a male POV? It's nice to come across those.
ReplyDeleteYay! Lots of awesome, Sam :D I kind of loved The Archived. I hope you will enjoy all of these, though :) They look amazing. <3
ReplyDeleteOoo, I have Notes from Ghost Town on its way--so looking forward to that! I hope you love Just One Day, Sam. :) And that you enjoy all your other lovelies, too.

~ Maida
I don't know, Sam! I just don't know ANYMORE! Do you think it's worth it for me to go and read Pure and catch up to all the rest of you? I'm getting more and more tempted as the buzz gets more and more insane for those darn Half-Blood series books!
ReplyDeleteAnd I have JOD and The Archived and I need to read them asap and I can't wait to see reviews for them here and ZOMGIMISSEDYOU. <3
Absolutely, Ash! Wait 'til you read Deity. That one is a personal favourite of mine. ;)

ReplyDeleteOut of all the books in this post, The Amber House intrigues me most. That cover is GORGEOUS.
ReplyDeleteLovely week hun. I'm still waiting for Apollyon - I think it's time to give up really!!
