thanks I am curious about it myself!
Wow, nice hail indeed! That LOVE GONE MAD book looks curious. ..can't wait to see your thoughts on it. Happy reading!
I move next week, so I can share how the experience was:)
it does and it was new to me,,,so I am curious
I'm looking forward to reading Off Sides and the rest of that series, and thanks for sharing what going on Around the Blogosphere. I'm currently super busy for the summer, but when Fall hits, I may change the blog and go with WP. Have a great week, enjoy those lovelies!
Ooooh, Love Gone Mad looks awesome. Going to have to look into that one.
you too Cricket!
I loved Losing Hope. As for backing up your blog, follow these instructions: https://support.google.com/blogger/answer/97416?hl=en
Not as yet but I'm pretty sure I have a copy of After Dark on my kindle, I really need to make time for it because it sounds great.
Interesting haul this week. Darke London looks pretty awesome. I love the cover of The Girl with the Steel Corset! It's been on my TBR list for sooo long! Happy readings!
I'm glad you liked Bronze Gods! It was my best book of the week, pretty much. But I know what you mean about that paperback font. I'm tempted by Darke London, but I've resisted so far. I've really liked her contemporaries, but her steampunk, not so much. Can't wait to see your review.
Marlene @ Reading Reality
I loved the entire series Paige and am actually gifting that win:)
*happy dance* I am looking forward to them!
Losing Hope was soooooooooooo good! Enjoy it Chelsea:)
Nyx, I have actually read all of Cross's series and when I won I requested book one since i thought it would make a most excellent Christmas gift!

I am curious about that myself and will be sharing it in October for "Things that Go Bump in the Night"
ooh darling you so need to read the Charley Davidson series..it is one of my favorites. I had no idea you were one of the blogs taken down. I am moving, hopefully this week, am waiting on Carmel.
Hope you like The Girl in the Steel Corset, I loved it. One of the few steampunks I could actually get into. Great book haul as usual :)

Hope to see you there.
What a great assortment of books! A Warm Place to Call Home really makes me wish for autumn! lol Have a great week!
Oh, Offsides looks so freaking good! I love hockey, so combining hockey in a romance? I am so totally going to have to snap it up. And there goes my vow to not buy any books this week! Happy reading and have a great week!
Belong to YOu looks good, hope you enjoy
Great books this week! I have heard good things about Off Sides. Have a good week! :)
Great book week! I think The Girl in the Steel Corset sounds like a great Steampunk, and I want to get my hands on it. Besides it looks amazing.:) Dark London looks really go too. Enjoy your fabulous reads!
Wow, those are some good looking books this week. I have to check out Love gone Mad for sure. Have a wonderful Sunday.

Holly @ Words Fueled by Love
Eee gads! I'm a book behind on Charlie & Reyes!! I should go buy that book this week, too, while it's on the cheaper side!! And A Warm Place Called Home is throwing me off - a demon's story??? I've got to see what that's all about!! Nice huge book pile this week, girl!!! Have a great reading week :D
Yay for FGPTL!! Loooove Darynda Jones!! The Girl in the Steel Corset was pretty awesome as well! I am addicted to that series and was yet another of the first steampunk books I read! Hope you enjoy all your shiny new reads!
Here's my STS
Have a GREAT day!
Old Follower :)
Another stellar week, Kimba! I can't wait to see your thoughts on The Mystery Woman. :-) Have a great week!
Great list of titles...I'm curious about Perry Road. Enjoy your week!
I also got Perry Road by Emi Gayle for review and I can't wait to read it, it sounds really good!I hope you have a great week!
I want to start the Darynda Jones Series. I just saw the other day that the fifth is out. Where did the time go? Losing Hope...sigh.
I appreciate the links that you shared. Interesting stuff. Especially the article about blogger shutting down blogs. That happened to me! My blog went poof all over some TOS BS. I am going to check out the Vanps vs. Zombies event now.
Darke London looks really good! I haven't heard of it, so thanks for sharing. Enjoy the rest of your weekend1
I immediately got fascinated by Love Gone Mad - it looks fantastic, K.! And yeah, that post from Rachel about Google was scary. I didn't know anything about it until today, but my blog got deleted on Monday, and it was pure luck that I've restored it straight away. I don't even know why or how I managed to do it. At the time I thought it was just a glitch, and I had no emails from Google.
Books!!!!! I hope I get some this week
I have seen Sawyer Bennett's books around and I have been intrigued by them, will be looking forward to what you think of them. I read Losing Hope during the week, cried my eyes out!! lol
Here's My StS and Sunday Post!
Naomi @ Nomi’s Paranormal Palace
What a fantastic haul! Each and every one of your new books looks like a good read. Enjoy!
Darke London looks fun! Yeah The Apocalypse is here! It is going to be a thrilling week! Thanks for getting the word out!
Perry Road looks good, I love the tagline. And Losing Hope was so much better than I expected, I knew it would be good as it's CH but I'm not the biggest fan of different pov stories. But it blew me away!
Nice haul, enjoy them all :)
Can't wait to see your review on A Cursed Embrace!
Ooo yay! Another Confession post! You have an awesome haul this week! I really wish I had read The Steampunk series up to now, I still regret not requesting the first one. I hope you have a great week!
Nice collection of books ;)
I'm looking forward to this week's reviews, especially the Amanda Quick and Cecy Robson.
I honestly haven't heard of any of the books you're reviewing this week. I'm looking forward to learning about some new books. Awesome haul, Kim. Have an awesome week!
Wow! Awesome haul Kimba! I really want to read Sawyer Bennett's series too! Congrats on winning!!! I'm reading and reviewing Losing Hope for Saturday, and am so excited!! I can't believe Google can delete our blogs! That's really scary to me, and I have no idea of how to back up my blog. Thanks for sharing! I love Sunday Post!
Lindy@ A Bookish Escape
Wow, what a week you've had and all those great books. Have an awesome week.
you are welcome, I am making the move next week:)
Thanks for linking to Parajunkees post, I'll have to check that one out. I have heard a lot of people freaking out about blogger, it may be time to get serious about switching to wordpress.
Oh I totally loved it..one of my favorites! My review will post in August:)
thanks Sharon, I am looking forward to those myself. Have you read her 19th year series?
A nice haul Kimba! I have been curious about Sawyer Bennett's books & Perry Road sounds great so I'm looking forward to seeing what you think.
Happy reading & have a great week :)
What a wonderful haul for this week!! I just loved Fifth Grave Past the Light and I hope you did as well! Enjoy all your new books and Happy Reading!! xoxo

I have actual read them all and own my own copy, when I won I chose book one so I could give it as a gift.
me too, I will be sharing that in October:)
thanks Kristin I will be sharing those in October:)
I have The Girl in the Steel Corset sitting on my shelf. I need to read it myself!!
The Girl in the Steel Corset! I hope you like that one. :) I'm still madly in love with that cover!
I like the sound of 'Darke London.' I'll have to add it to the TBR.
Darke London and Perry Road are new to me. I'll have to check both of those out further.
thanks Jorie, did you enter to win I love the trilogy I am giving away!
me too, hoping it is good:)
you are welcome:)
I got Love Gone Mad too (it'll go in next weeks MM post) it looks awesome! Can't wait to dig into it :D I totally need to read Fragments ASAP! I loved Partials so much! Thanks for promoting Vamps vs Zombie month, we're excited about it! :D
I hope you enjoy the "Apocalypse Blog Hop" this week!. Happy Reading!
Ooo exciting week. And I like the looks of Darke London as well. Hope you enjoy it. :)
I also really liked her 19th year series. And I've heard from some people who already read Perry Road that it's really good. I can't wait to read it!
I love Cross's series so I hope you read them soon!
It will be my first by her, and will be sharing it for my "Things That Go Bump in the Night" event in October, so we shall see:)
I am using your blog for an example of Disqus on my blog... :)
ok cupcake:)
Will do. I am putting the first on my TBR now. Thank you for the suggestion.
Oh, and yes. I was wiped out. All things can be turned to good though. I revamped my approach and an only reading for myself now. I needed the kick to remind me that blogging is fun but not eternal.
