So.. First book haul/in my mailbox ever. Enticing, yeah? :D
1. If I Stay - Gayle Forman
Genre: YA Fiction
Publisher: Dutton Juvenile
Series: If I Stay (Book #1)
The incomplete first page made me pick this book up. The synopsis did not really give out any interesting aspects of the book, but the comments printed on the book bought me. As I watch Book Hauls on Youtube and searched this book up on Goodreads, I found out that this was actually an amazing book and that there is (or will be) a second book to this series. Definitely going to be reading this soon and having a review up for this!
2. The Statistical Probability of Love at First Sight
Genre: YA Romance/Contemporary
Publisher: Poppy
Series: -
I picked this up because I saw people raving about it on Youtube. Plus, I love me a little romantic, light story consisting of.. anything British. ;) Basically it is about a girl who is flying to London for her Dad's wedding. On her flight, she sits a seat from a hot British guy and that was where it all began. My TBR pile is getting really tall.
3. The Maze Runner - James Dashner
Genre: YA SciFi/Dystopia
Publisher: Chicken House
Series: Maze Runner (Book #1)
Again, picked this up due to the countless applaud from Booktubers and BookBloggers. In case you've missed the hype, the book is about a boy who gets sent into the middle of a frantic and terrible maze. He meets other boys there as well, so he's not alone. All of the boys have no idea why they are there, and they search for answers every morning - even if it means risking half-machine, half-animal monsters. Probably going to start reading this book after I finish the Hunger Games trilogy.
4. The Postcard Killers - James Patterson
Genre: Mystery/Thriller/Suspense
Publisher: Grand Central Publishing
Series: -
Truthfully, the cover was mainly why I decided to get this book. The texture of the cover is so.. suave and the print on it is just gorgeous. You can never go wrong with the Eiffel Tower. This book is about a detective who goes to Europe for leisure. Until deaths start tallying up and their connection is a postcard to the local newspaper preceding each new victim. This detective teams up with another detective - who had just received a postcard in Stockholm - and they think they know where the next victims will be.
5. THE FAULT IN OUR STARS - JOHN GREEN
Genre: YA Romance/Contemporary/AWESOMENESS.
Publisher: Dutton Juvenile
Series: -
I don't think anything needs to be said here. It arrived on Thursday. I squealed terribly. This will be the next book I read. I STILL CAN'T BELIEVE I HAVE A COPY OF THE FIRST BATCH OF TFIOS. AH. I have not read any of John's books yet, but EVERYONE's excitement got to me. Hence, the grin on my face as I type this.
And look!
A purple J scribble :D
That is all for my book haul. I hope you enjoyed it!
Great books! I'm going to have to get a copy of The Statistical Probability of Love at First Sight - everyone says great things about it. Maybe I can get my bf to read the boy parts to me in his English accent ;)
