Today's the day, friends -- I'm sharing with you a list (and a video) (and photos) of the books I picked up at BEA 2014! I feel so blessed to have been able to snag some of these titles. Many thanks to the publishers, authors & bloggers who made it possible for me to have them! My hope is that others who read this will find titles they're interested in, especially for the ones that were new-to-me when I heard a little about them at BEA!
If you're up for it, take a look at my (surprisingly quick) BEA haul vlog. I only said the titles and authors of the novels, but I do include links in this post so you can check them out on Goodreads if you find yourself intrigued!

ReplyDeleteSo many good books! You already probably know my favs so I'll skip over them. I am super pumped to read Exquisite Captive. I think it sounds AMAZING. I was also glad to grab a copy of Zac & Mia, I hope it's really cute. I didn't get Compulsion or Breathe Annie Breathe but I will be watching out for reviews of them because I'm definitely curious! Now I need to check out the books that you discovered at BEA - I haven't heard of these yet! I did discover Watched by C. J. Lyons at BEA and it sounds pretty good! I might film a vlog for my Saturday StS even though my Recap went up today :)
