This week I bought the Divergent series by Veronica Roth! I bought them in a hardback box set and they're sooo pretty! I have them on my Nook, too because I really don't want to ruin the books :)

I already finished reading all of the books and I'm super depressed now haha! Reviews for those will be up this month as well as my movie review :)

Tell me: What did you get this week? Have you read the Divergent series?

I've gotten approved for some review books that I'm really excited about (On The Fence, Dear Killer) and I've gotten some books from the library this week that I'm also excited for (The Sound of Letting Go). I purchased one Nook book this week that I am absolutely ecstatic to finally see out and that is...

This means you can include books you buy in physical store or online, books you borrow from friends or the library, review books, gifts and of course ebooks!

For Christmas, my sister got me a $25 gift card for Barnes & Noble and I decided to use it online because I knew books would be cheaper that way! I got three books and here is what I got!

1. All The Truth That's In Me by Julie Berry (This is the first book club pick in Octavia's new book club Read.Discuss.Repeat! You can sign up HERE)
2. Racing Savannah by Miranda Kenneally (I know I hated Catching Jordan but I'm still SO curious about her other books and this one is about horse racing which I LOVE.)
3. This Is What Happy Looks Like by Jennifer E. Smith (I LOVED The Statistical Probability of Love at First Sight so I'm really hoping I love this one!)
