**Bought, Borrowed, & Bagged ~ #8**


Bought, Borrowed, & Bagged is a weekly meme, hosted by TalkSupe, where I share with you the books I have bought, borrowed, or bagged (gifted or won) plus a recap of the previous week's reviews, upcoming reviews, and any other bookishness I want to share. :)

Here's what was added to my ereader, and my physical library, this week:

BOUGHT
In Bloom (The Brightside, #1)Shark Bait (Grab Your Pole, #1)Forever & Always (The Ever Trilogy, #1)


I picked up In Bloom after reading Jennifer @Donnie Darko Girl's review of it. :) I picked up Shark Bait because Andrea @The Bookish Babe raved about it and it was a freebie - or 99 cents, I can't remember. And I picked up Forever & Always as a freebie because it's Jasinda Wilder! :)  


BAGGED
Love on Mimosa LaneSolving for ExDelilah Dusticle's Transylvanian Adventure (Delilah Dusticle, #2)Best Kind of Broken (Finding Fate, #1)


I received Love on Mimosa Lane, Delilah Dusticle's Transylvanian Adventure and Best Kind of Broken for review. And I won a signed ARC of Solving for Ex from Jessica @Lovin Los Libros.


Last Week's Reviews


Upcoming Reviews
When I Break by Kendall Ryan
Dear Emily by Trudy Stiles
Shadow Town by Robyn Jones


**Bookishness**

I think I may have mentioned before that I collect bookmarks. I grab one any time I see one. I make them, too. (I'll share a photo of some I've made next week.) I started collecting them from places we travel too as well. It's what I always get for my souvenir collection. I figure it makes sense since we travel to places based on books. Yes, I'm that nerdy. ;) And my hubby loves me so much he allows me to plan our vacations around places I want to visit because I read about them. :) Seriously...here's a list:

Savannah, Georgia - Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil
North Carolina - Cold Mountain
Lake Quinault - Divine Secrets of the Ya-Ya Sisterhood
Seattle - Georgina Kincaid Series

Here are a few of the bookmarks I've collected:

  2. Oh that's cool! About the bookmark collection! And what a wonderful hubby you have that goes along with it! A vacation's a vacation anyway! Went to Savannah myself last year and it was pretty awesome! Hot, like really really hot and hotter than St. Louis, but still very nice to be somewhere different and with so much history! Love going to new places!

    Great reads too! They're all new to me but I hope you enjoy them all!

    Here's my STS

    Have a GREAT day!
