Physical Review Copies:
* requested before my ARC ban went into effect
*** graphic novels are an exception to the ARC ban since they’re such quick reads and I don’t request many of them!
- *** Yuri is My Job! #1 — Miman
- adult romance manga; this is a yuri manga about… a cafe where the waitresses pretend to be schoolgirls? I don’t know, the synopsis actually sounds pretty sketch, but a lot of the reviews made it sound great!
- * Immunity — Erin Bowman
- YA sci-fi/horror; OH MAN. I loved Contagion so much and I can’t wait to get back into this world!
- *** Hitorijime My Hero, Vol. 1 — Memeko Arii
- adult romance manga; this is a yaoi story between, I think, a gangster and a high school teacher falling for each other.
- *** Gleipnir, Vol. 1 — Sun Takeda
- adult horror manga; I only requested this because it’s horror and the cover looked neat, but it gets pretty bad ratings, so we’ll see.
- *** The Quintessential Quintuplets, Vol. 1 — Negi Haruba
- YA contemporary manga; this one just sounded super fluffy and cute, and I love the art style on the cover.
- *** 10 Dance, Vol. 1 — Inouesatoh
- adult romance manga; a yaoi manga about a dancing competition!
- No One Here is Lonely — Sarah Everett
- YA contemporary/sci-fi; when Eden’s crush dies, she’s able to keep talking to him through a company that uploads people’s voices, emails, and interactions to create an AI of them after they pass away.
Digital Review Copies:
- * Full Disclosure — Camryn Garrett (october 2019)
- YA contemporary; this is a story about an HIV+ teen dealing with life and bullying in a community that misunderstands her entire existence. I’ve been dying to read this and am probably going to go ahead and pick it up ASAP!
Kindle Purchases/Freebies:
- Nothing this week!
Physical Purchases & Gifts:
- DEV1AT3 — Jay Kristoff
- YA sci-fi; I haven’t finished my eARC yet (oops), but that didn’t make me any less excited for my pre-order to show up.
Library & Kindle Unlimited Borrows:
- Everyone’s a Aliebn When Ur a Aliebn Too — Jomny Sun
- adult graphic novel/comic; I don’t even know how to class this. it’s just panels of really precious, wholesome little comics and I’m very excited.
- Shout — Laurie Halse Anderson
- YA nonfic; LHA’s personal assault survival story, told in poetry. Oof, let me prepare myself for this one.
- Goldie Vance, Vol. 2 — Hope Larson
- YA mystery graphic novel; I wasn’t going to rush to pick up volume 2 until I remembered we had gotten 1-4 to add to our collection at work, so why not?
- Outer Order, Inner Calm — Gretchen Rubin
- adult nonfic; why am I obsessed with books about cleaning and de-cluttering lately?
- A Court of Thorns and Roses — Sarah J. Maas (AUDIO REREAD)
- NA fantasy; yeah, I’ve read this book way too many times already, but I wanted to reread it AGAIN, so I checked out the audiobook!
No Comments
I am also very excited to read Full Disclosure! I love when books dive into topics that are “taboo”.
Yes, same! It’s so important that we have books talking about stuff that nobody really WANTS to talk about (like HIV).
I am also looking forward to Unpregnant, which is about abortion! I have review copies of both of them and I am looking forward to seeing how they deal with these topics.
Yes, same! I’m really excited for Unpregnant, too!
I hope it is done well!
I kind of love that you want to check out the ACOTAR audiobook just to spice up your rereading. :p
Hahaha I’m not gonna lie, the narrator is freaking perfect for Feyre!
I read a premise that sounds really similar to No One Here is Lonely a few weeks ago! It sounds like it will be a heart-wrenching read! And Everyone’s a Aliebn When Ur a Aliebn Too is super cute! I hope you enjoy reading it!
Everyone’s A Aliebn was so precious! It made me cry a few times just over how wholesome and sweet it was. I kind of want to get a copy and wallpaper a wall with the pages just to inspire myself. ?
