This time I managed not to go crazy at the library, so I for once I don't have eight library books to list. But I do have a few fun things!

Bought

Spell Bound by Rachel Hawkins (review)

The Giver by Lois Lowry

Even though I am supposed to be on a book buying ban, when I found out that Rachel Hawkins was going to be doing the release party for Spell Bound right near me, I had to buy a copy. I had a great time and really enjoyed the book! And The Giver was 25 cents on a Kindle daily deal – that barely even counts as a purchase!

From the library

I never said I didn't go to the library, just that I didn't go crazy! Look, I managed to walk out with only two books for an entire two week period! That's practically a miracle.

The Fault in Our Stars by John Green

The Death of King Arthur by Sir Thomas Malory, adapted by Peter Ackroyd

From NetGalley

Railsea by China Miéville

Tomorrow Land by Mari Mancusi

Gifted

Lord of the Fading Lands by C.L. Wilson

My amazing friend Maria was generous enough to send me this book because she loved it so much. As you can see from the monster bookmark, I'm reading it now and so far I'm really enjoying it. Thank you so much, Maria!

And finally, it's not a book, but I did see The Hunger Games yesterday. I was really pleased; I thought they did a great job overall and the emotional scenes in particular were really good. Have you seen it? What did you think?

Leave your IMM links in the comments and I'll definitely stop by!

I do my IMMs every other Saturday. Here are the books I've gotten the past two weeks. I was supposed to be on a book-buying ban, but A Perfect Blood came out and I had to buy it! It was The Hollows, guys. So I kind of bent my ban for that.

Once again, I went a little crazy at the library. But I had to make walking there in the snow worthwhile somehow.
