Showcase Sunday #5

Showcase Sunday is a weekly bookish meme hosted by Vicky at the Books, Biscuits and Tea blog. It is a meme inspired by Pop Culture Junkie and The Story Siren. The goal of this meme is for us bookish peeps to showcase & highlight the books that we have either bought, borrowed, won, downloaded, or received for review the past week :)




BOUGHT



1. Prada & Prejudice by Mandy Hubbard

2. The Ripper (The Vampire Diaries: Stefan's Diaries #4)

3. The Asylum (The Vampire Diaries: Stefan's Diaries #5)



Sidenote: I already have read Prada & Prejudice. But the 1st time I read it, I had checked it out of the library. It's a really good book so I decided to buy my own copy. Can't wait to re-read it.

I have not started Stefan's Diaries yet, though, after I buy book 6, I will and I am so excited to read them. The Vampire Diaries is my favorite show and these books are based on the tv show and are different from the original books. 






Thanks for reading <3

 

What book loveliness did you receive this week? :)

      Haha, you know it ;)

      Yay! I'm glad to hear that Olivia =) I can't wait to start them. I think they will also help me with TVD withdrawal until season 4 starts up again :D

      Thanks for stopping by, girl <3

    I'm not so fond of the whole "changed books based on TV series" thing. Although I am curious about the Vampire Diaries in general. However, I guess I should start watching the TV series then? ^^
    Enjoy re-reading Prada & Prejudice while you wait on that 6th book! =)

      If you get the chance definitely give it a watch some time, Caro. Vampire Diaries is one of the few shows that manages to surpass the original books in that the content is better, in my opinion.

      It just gets better and better and always gets the coolest new characters. I have never missed an ep & that is rare for me. I easily get frustrated with shows, haha.

      And, Thanks :)

    Hi Jennifer!

    Thanks for your comment at Lucy Swing's blog for the Spellbound Tour.

    The Vampire Diaries is my new guilty pleasure. :) I was screaming yesterday when I saw that Elodie over at Once Upon a Quote got to meet Ian Somerhalder and Paul Wesley in France!!!

      And, you're welcome. So many of your words resonated with me.

      *High five* - that is awesome. I love 'the Vampire Diaries' so much. Obsessed! You have excellent taste, haha :)

      Thanks so much for the link to Elodie's post. So jealouss of Elodie right now. Oh my goodness. I love the TVD guys. And it sounds like they are super nice in person, too. *fangirling*

      It's really interesting to see how different they are. Though, this new set of books (Stefan's Diaries) do align with the show.

      & Thank you, Giselle :)
