November Digital Haul: So Many Kindle Sales!

November 28, 2018

Usually, I put my entire haul in one post, but a poll on twitter this week showed a pretty heavy vote in favor of splitting the posts up and giving a little extra information on the ARCs and Kindle Sales, so here is the digital half of the haul!

I’ll add a short synopsis for the eARCs in case anyone wants to request them, but the ebook list is just too long, so I’ll only be including pricing for those.

Please let me know in the comments what you think about this new haul layout!

    Let me know what you think about The Mansion when you get to it! I couldn’t get into it and DNF’ed 50 pages in.

    • Reply Destiny @ Howling Libraries November 28, 2018 at 5:53 pm

      Oh noooo haha! It’s funny but I actually didn’t even mean to get it. I was trying to click “more info” and accidentally hit “read” while it was under Read Now status. I literally went, “… well, SHIT.” Hopefully I’ll have better luck with it but I’m not hearing good things so far ?

  • Reply Shalini November 28, 2018 at 10:21 am

    I want to read even if I fall… It has good reviews

      It sounds so good and I always hear so many people raving about Tessa Dare, plus I was pretty sure I remembered you recommending her to me, so I had to!

          Oooh, since it doesn’t come out until May I probably wouldn’t be reading it until March-ish – I totally understand if you don’t want to wait that long, though <3

      Awesome! It’ll be my first CC Hunter read but I hear such good things that I’m very excited 🙂

    Nice haul! I just finished You’d Be Mine and I’m curious of what your thoughts will be. I also loved seeing The Uninvited on here! That’s the last book I need to complete my collection 🙂

      Thank you! Oh awesome, what did you think of You’d Be Mine?

      • Reply MetalPhantasmReads December 1, 2018 at 6:27 pm

        I did post my review. It was a solid, enjoyable read but it didn’t blow my mind at all 🙂 but I will read the author’s next book.

    Just imagine seeing this digital haul in its physical form.. I think I’d cry.. :’)
    Hope you’ll enjoy In Another Life!!

    • Reply Destiny @ Howling Libraries December 1, 2018 at 9:21 am

      I just felt a little queasy at the thought. ? But imagine if you could get all of them as physical copies at those price points, since most of these were free or a dollar… ? That would be amazing. And thank youuu

      • Reply Kathy @ Books & Munches December 2, 2018 at 1:05 am

        Omg yesssss. I’d already be claiming a physical copy of Merry Inkmas. Finished it already and I hope you’ll love it as much as I do because I LOVE IT.

        • Reply Destiny @ Howling Libraries December 2, 2018 at 8:21 pm

          Yaaaay! I’m so glad you loved it. I’m planning on binge reading it all tonight or tomorrow night.

          • Kathy @ Books & Munches December 3, 2018 at 5:45 am

            Pretty sure that’ll be an easy binge read, haha! Let me know how it goes! 😀

          • Destiny @ Howling Libraries December 3, 2018 at 6:34 pm

            Will do! I think I’ve read 4 or 5 of her books so far and read them all in one sitting each. They’re just so hard to put down!

          • Kathy @ Books & Munches December 4, 2018 at 1:40 am

            Can’t argue with that! I even wanted to buy a physical copy of Merry Inkmas but it.. doesn’t exist? And I was so bummed, haha. :’)

          • Destiny @ Howling Libraries December 6, 2018 at 12:49 am

            Nope, sadly, I think only two of Talia’s books are available in paperback so far! I know she has plans for eventually making paperback options of all of her full novels, but the last I checked, there aren’t any plans to print any of her novellas. 🙁

          • Kathy @ Books & Munches December 6, 2018 at 4:01 am

            Darnnnn it. Oh well. At least I know whose books to buy when I need diverse romance in my life. 😀
