Book Bird Goodies #1

Meet Magnus, my little Book Bird Reviews mascot.

Instead of doing a Showcase Sunday or anything, I've decided to just post any book goodies myself.

 Library 

Hell's Heroes (Demonata, #10) by Darren Shan

The Paladin Prophecy (The Paladin Prophecy, #1) by Mark Frost

I finally got Hell's Heroes which is the last book in Shan's Demonata series and I'll be sad when I finish it but they are fun and gross books. The Paladin Prophecy was recommended to me by my librarian, Miss Kitty (that's what I call her, she's a Mrs. but I can't help but call her Miss) who is simply awesome and I hope to start it soon.

 Bought 

The Girl Who Played with Fire (Millennium, #2)

The Girl Who Kicked the Hornet's Nest (Millennium, #3)

Found these at a thrift store for a dollar a piece and now my set is complete.

Department Nineteen (Department 19, #1) by Will Hill

 Kindle Freebies

Throwback Thursday #2

Throwback Thursday is a weekly bookish meme hosted by Stephanie @Bookfever and Christina @Booksane where we feature books that we've read in the past but are still crazy about. It could be a book you read as a child and still remember and love or maybe just a book that you haven't read in a long time and want to show your love for.

Each week we'll be featuring a new random question to answer!

Lord Loss (The Demonata, #1)

by

Darren Shan

Grubbs Grady has stiff red hair and is a little big for his age, which means he can get into R-rated movies. He hates history and loves bacon, rats, and playing tricks on his squeamish older sister. When he opts out of a family weekend trip, he never guesses that he is about to take a terrifying journey into darkness. Hungry demons and howling werewolves haunt his waking nightmares... and threaten his life.

I recently re-read books 1-3 and then caught up to book 9 in like a month. Then of course the library didn't have the last one but these books are AWESOME! I first read Shan's Saga of Darren Shan/Cirque du Freak series and loved it so then I discovered his Demonata series. These books are creepy, gross and like a more kickass R.L. Stine.

 Quote 

“You thought I was a werewolf?" Dervish asks.
"Yes." I answer hollowly.
"You ass.”

 Question of the Week: 

Do you have an e-reader?

I do have an e-reader! I won my Kindle last December and have loved having it. Paper books are still better but free e-books are nice and addictive.

Showcase Sunday is hosted by Vicky over at Books, Biscuits and Tea. We share what swag or books we've bought, received or gotten from the library. For more information visit Vicky's Showcase Sunday post.
