Showcase Sunday #87

Inspired by Pop Culture Junkie and the Story Siren, the aim of Showcase Sunday is to highlight our newest books or book related swag and to see what everyone else received for review, borrowed from libraries, bought in bookshops and downloaded onto eReaders each week.

PHYSICAL BOOKS

Purchased
Ink (Paper Gods #1) by Amanda Sun – I ordered this on Amazon and I was terribly disappointed when it showed up as an ARC. Even getting past the part where you are not supposed to sell ARCs (and the very negative feedback I left on the sellers page), I really wanted the finished copy of this. The finished copy is pretty and made on special paper and…just grh! I wanted to official one! I won’t return it because returning is a hassle and the seller would just turn around and sell it again, probably to some who doesn’t know what an ARC is and to be insulted that they were sold a copy.
Rain (Paper Gods #2) by Amanda Sun – I also ordered book 2, but it arrived as described. I need to read it because I won a copy of book 3 from GoodReads and I can’t read book 3 without reading book 2. I don’t imagine this is a series where you can skip a book and still have everything make sense.

Won
Sweet (Sweet #1) by Emmy Laybourne – I was pretty surprised when this showed up on my doorstep. I had no idea I had won it! Regardless, I’m pretty excited to get my hands on it because it sounds awesome!

That’s it for me this week! What did you get? Let me know in the comments!
