I know, I know, I'm meant to be on a book buying ban... however... I went to see my parents last weekend and he gave me some money for helping him out with some stuff a few months ago. He handed me the money and said "this is for books and only books, nothing else OK?" well, who am I to refuse that order!
Bought:
I'm so impressed that I got so much for the money my dad gave me. There's actually another book still to come but its from the Amazon marketplace and is taking a while. These all sound amazing and after reading reviews for Five Flavors of Dumb on Ashley's blog, Books From Bleh to Basically Amazing, and I wanna be your Joey Rammone on Laura (Sisterspooky) and Clovers (Fluttering Butterflies) blogs I knew I needed to read them! Trouble is I have so many awesome books now I dont know where to start!
For Review:
Thank you to the lovely Tina at Abrams and Chronicle for this one! it sounds so good and that cover had me sold from the second I saw it!

I'm in love with every single one of those covers, Raimy!
I love the Dancing Jax one (is that in the right hand corner, yes?)
And you're right, The Storyteller looks great :-D
Hope you enjoy these, my love!
The Storyteller's cover is so pretty!
I read Teenage Amnesiac a few years ago and really enjoyed it, hope you do too :)
Haha well you were only doing what you were told to.
Wow!! You must have done a really good job of helping your dad out! That's a fantastic haul.
Glad you're back off your blog break, we missed you!!
Aww, what a nice gesture, I highly recommend Dancing Jax, happy reading :D
Rot and Ruin has been one of my favourite reads this year - it is soooo good! You will love it!! One of the best books I've read for ages... :-)
Great set! I loved Five Flavors of Dumb. Really well written. I'm curious about Dancing Jax.
Enjoy!

omg, I am officially jealous! Five Flavors of Dumb by Antony John and
I Wanna Be Your Joey Ramone by Stephanie Kuehnert <3 They both look so lovely. I read Ballads a while back and was just blown away. I hear Ramone is even better and have been interested ever since. Hope you love them. :)
Wow, that's awesome of your dad to give you money for books! My parents think I have too many books as it is, haha. Great selection, I hope you enjoy them!
