SUNDAY POST is hosted by Kimba the Caffeinated Book Reviewer. It's "a post to recap the past week on your blog, showcase books and things we have received and share news about what is coming up on our blog for the week ahead."
MAILBOX MONDAY is "a gathering place for readers to share the books that came into their house last week and explore great book blogs. Warning: Mailbox Monday can lead to envy, toppling TBR piles and humongous wish lists."
oOoOoOo
My weekend trip to Eureka Springs, Arkansas, was so fun. The weather was perfect - comfortable, cool and crisp, and the leaves were gorgeous! I posted a few photos of my visit on Tumblr, so check them out if you have a chance:http://bookofsecrets.tumblr.com/
New arrivals this week:
- The Night Circus by Erin Morgenstern (gift from a friend)
- The Oracle Glass by Judith Merkle Riley (for review from Sourcebooks)
- Whispers in the Dark by Maya Banks (won from the lovely Aurian)
The Spooktacular Giveaway Hop officially starts on 10/24, though I'm putting my post up the day before. Right now, there are over 500 blogs signed up to participate, so it's going to be awesome!!







The Nigh Circus is still on my list. Man, I need to read that book already. I've heard so many great things! Enjoy all! :)
