Beg, Borrow, and Steal (007)

Hey everyone!  Sorry for not posting so much, yet again, this week.  Still lots of stuff going on at home.  This is one exhausted Library Page.  =\  But I am taking a well-deserved break as you can see from the Back to the Books Giveaway and now this edition of Beg, Borrow, & Steal!

If you’re just joining us, these posts are my take on the In My Mailbox meme hosted by Kristi over at The Story Siren.  This week I’m going to try a new thing where I link to the Goodreads pages of the books so you all can find information easier.  :)

Here’s what I’ve recently acquired!

Begged:

Bought at killer good price.

Remembrance by Michelle Madow
I love reincarnation stories A LOT so I just had to grab this.
You should too!  Ebook’s only 99 cents from Smashwords, Amazon, and B&N right now!

Borrowed:

From a library.

Abandon by Meg Cabot
I’ve been feeling down lately because of home things
but I saw this at work and I felt better grabbing it up. :)
It’s a mythology story… ♥
Ugh, my weakness! My wonderful, wonderful weakness!

Time for this week’s Beg, Borrow, & Steal!  If you’re just joining us, this is my take on the In My Mailbox meme hosted by Kristi over at The Story Siren.  Basically I am probably a book addict and these posts are here to prove it to the world!… Or something like that.  :)

So keep the fundraiser in mind.  More details soon!
