Yesterday was our much awaited pay day and since we've experienced floodings these past couple of weeks, my trip to National Bookstore Cut-off sale was cancelled. As soon as I came out of the office, I headed straight to NBS Glorietta 5 only to be a little disappointed. They have a lot of titles on 70% off but most of them were not YAs, the titles I really want were all unavailable, I also found some awesome YA ones but couldn't find the first part of the series and the ones I bagged were on 20% off:Stacking the Shelves is a weekly meme hosted by Tynga's Reviews that showcases newly acquired books or goodies we bought, received or borrowed during the week.
BOUGHT: (National Bookstore)
🔼 Daughter of Smoke and Bone (Daughter of Smoke and Bone #1) by Laini Taylor
🔼 Bloodlines (Bloodlines #1) by Richelle Mead
🔼 Beautiful Creatures (Caster Chronicles #1) by Kami Garcia and Margaret Stohl
🔼 Clockwork Angel (The Infernal Devices #1) by Cassandra Clare
🔼 Sapphique (Incarceron #2) by Catherine Fisher
After almost an hour of finding-grabbing-dropping-getting-deciding drama at NBS, I decided to check out Powerbooks (NBS and Powerbooks are sister companies) but nada. Then dropped by the nearest Bibliarch Branch in the area and as soon as I entered the door, these were the babies greeted me:
BOUGHT: (Bibliarch Glorietta 3)
🔼 Anna Dressed in Blood (Anna #1) by Kendare Blake
🔼 The Iron King (The Iron Fey #1) by Julie Kagawa *FINALLY!!!!! I GOT IT*
🔼 Carrier of the Mark (Carrier Trilogy #1) by Leigh Fallon
🔼 The Selection (The Selection #1) by Kiera Cass
I felt like the world stop for a second and I immediately grabbed them and went home!Then when I was taking pictures I realized that I overspent! Now I have to suffer for about a week or 2 at work because of what just transpired! I was even tempted to buy Something Strange and Deadly (but it was as pricey as the The Iron King so next time would do) and I don't have the Throne of Glass yet! That made me feel terrible! The only thing that makes me smile is I HAVE BOOKS.
Thank you so much National Bookstore and Bibliarch!
It looks like you went on a book buying spree! With the exception of Sapphique, I have all of the other books and I enjoyed them all. My particular faves are Clockwork Angel and Bloodlines. Happy reading! :)
