I just bought The Secrets of Happy Families by Bruce Feiler. It's one of amazon's daily deals today.

    Yay! Ready Player One is one of my all time favorite audiobooks, and I have a total author crush on Robin Sloane, he's fabulous.

    Most recent book purchase? Oh geez. Last weekend I went to a book bazaar and filled my dollar a bag with 43 books!
    I couldn't even say what they all are.

    I bought Twisted Sisters a while back because it was on $2.99 special from Kindle.  I'm still trying to figure out what I'm going to spend my amazon credits on because frankly I'm more of a library person and I only buy books that I plan to read over and over.

    I have two audible credits to spend, one of which is going to the Michael Connolly book I'm to read.

    Last thing I picked up was The Uninvited Guests: A Novel by Sadie Jones.

    I bought the Rook & Ronin books last week when they were super cheap.  Yesterday I downloaded several free kindle books.  I've been trying not to spend money on books - that's my nod to attempting to keep a budget and I'm running out of space.

    The last book I paid for was Susanna Kearsley's The Firebird. I also recently pre-ordered Stephanie Perkins' Isla and the Happily Ever After.

    I thought this book was great.
    It has excellent reviews, so I'm looking forward to it.  Reading chronologically, though, I'm not going to get to it for quite a while - I'm only on Jefferson now.
