Lenoreo’s Haul

(All Ebooks unless otherwise specified)

NetGalley ARC Widgets Offered (and Taken):

Valiant by Merrie Destefano from Entangled: Teen (Entangled Publishing LLC) — releases December 4th, 2018. I was considering requesting this one anyways, so when I got an email offering the widget, I went for it!

ARCs From Authors/PR Companies:

Trailer Park Heart by Rachel Higginson — releases October 23rd, 2018. I actually beta read this one, and hopefully my review will be coming soon, if I can get my butt in gear!!
Fireworks (True North #6) by Sarina Bowen from Nina Bocci PR — releases November 13th, 2018. YOU GUYS. I will likely wait until November (closer to release) to read this, but fuck…I want to read it right now!
The Christmas Gift? (A Barlow Sisters novella) by Jordan Ford — releases November 2018. The cover hasn’t been revealed yet, and there is no preorder, so the title goes to Goodreads. I’m reading this one right now!

Preorders That Went Live:

Fragments of Ash: Cinderella (A Modern Fairytale #7) by Katy Regnery — released October 1st, 2018. Got this one on preorder sale — yay me!! I also read an ARC and LOVED it, see my review here. While it’s no longer on sale, I will note that proceeds from sales during the month of October go to a Women’s Shelter charity!
After the Night (Romance For All Seasons #1) by Sandra Marie — released October 1st, 2018. This one was SO ADORABLE and refreshing!! See my review here.

Got It On Sale:

Lennon Reborn (Preload #4) by Scarlett Cole — A lot of the books I got on sale this week were because I follow these authors on eReaderIQ. This is one of the books I have a NetGalley ARC of that I am SO BEHIND ON, but I figured since it was on sale for $1.99 from its usual $3.99, I’d snag it. No longer on sale.
The Way Back to Us (Love Unplugged #3) by Jamie Howard — Same deal for this one, on sale for $1.99 from its usual $3.99. This one I’ve actually read though (see my review here). No longer on sale.
Until It’s Right by Jamie Howard — This one I haven’t read yet, but I’ve really enjoyed the author. At this point I figured out it was St. Martin’s Press’s annual sale! So another one on sale for $1.99 from its usual $3.99. No longer on sale.
Hooked (Fandom Hearts #1.5) by Cathy Yardley — At this point I just started looking through St. Martin’s Press books, and having just loved the audiobook of this one (see my review here), I figured I’d snag the Kindle copy thinking it was on sale too. But it’s not, this is the regular price. I still stuck it here because I thought I got it on sale. *rolls eyes*
I Think I Love You (Oxford #5) by Lauren Layne — Another author I follow on eReaderIQ, another NetGalley ARC I still need to read, and since it was on sale for $1.99 from its usual $4.99, I one-clicked. Still on sale!
Bishop (Arizona Vengeance #1) by Sawyer Bennett — Samesies for this one.
Arrogant Devil by R.S. Grey — Another author I’ve recently fallen in love with and now follow on eReaderIQ, so when I got an alert that this one was on sale for $1.99 from its usual $3.99, I snagged it. Sale is over.
Ugly Love by Colleen Hoover — Saw this one on BookBub on sale for $2.99 from its usual $11.99 (in Canadian), and since I only have the paperback I snagged it. It might be just a Canadian deal, it looks still on sale for me.
Man Candy (After We Fall #1) by Melanie Harlow — As I mentioned in my last StS, this author will be at the 6ix Author Event in Toronto that I’m considering attending, so I had put this on my wishlist. So when I got an eReaderIQ alert that it was on sale for free from its usual $3.99, I figured why not. Still free!
