Bringing in the Loot

This is part of the In My Mailbox series hosted by The Story Siren. This meme allows book bloggers around the web to showcase what awesomeness we bought, swapped, borrowed, or got this week. Check out my loot below!

First though, whether you celebrate or not, enjoy Valentine's Day! Enjoy yourself today however you see fit; indulge in a rare treat for yourself. Just a suggestion. :)

You know how they say, "Be careful what you wish for?" Well, consider my lesson learned. I racked up on books this week! Lots of books means lots of reviews coming up. I can't wait!

Won:
A signed copy of O, Juliet by Robin Maxwell and a solid silver heart necklace with a card. That means I know have two... should I do another contest?
For Review:
For Keeps by Natasha Friend
Heresy by S. J. Parris
In a Heartbeat by Loretta Ellsworth
Shift by Rachel Vincent (SQUEEEE!!!)
This World We Live In by Susan Beth Pfeffer
Tagged by Mara Purnhagen
When Good Wishes Go Bad by Mindy Klasky
The last four are net gallies, so I don't have pictures of them.

Which do you prefer: hardbacks or e-books? Also, what did you get this week?

Wow, you got some amazing books! I definitely say yes to that contest idea for O, Juliet - or, you know, you could just send it to me! ;)))
Super jealous of In a Heartbeat (cannot wait for my copy to finally arrive!!!!!!!), This World We Live In and others, most of them sound really good!
Happy reading and I'll be looking forward to your reviews! :)

I prefer books but to read an ARC of "This World We Live In" I'd suck it up & read an ebook.

Great books! O, Juliet sounds great and I have some more reading to do before I get to Shift.

Here's my IMM: Not-Really-Southern Vamp Chick

Definitely prefer real paper books, but am not adverse to reading e-books.

And yes, CONTEST!

I am so behind on reviews. I've been getting more non-fiction than fiction, and they're more difficult to go through quickly. I prefer getting hard copies of the final book. I don't like galleys or e-books. I only get an e-book for personal use if it's like a short how to do something. Know what I mean?

You have a lot of great reads. Oh, so when you do the giveaway, let us all know 'cause I want that! LOL :)

What a fun week!! I don't really like e-books...harder for me to read, but I like paperbacks more than hardbacks price wise. If money didn't matter? Hardbacks. :)
