AKA Showcase Sunday
Behold my powers of resistance. This is two weeks’ worth of books (I know!) including two pre-orders from the fantastic Hot Key Books and a NetGalley invite. So really I only went out my way to get the one book; Katya’s War.

Bellman & Black by Diane Setterfield (Atria)
Katya’s War by Jonathan L. Howard (Strange Chemistry)
Bought:
Vivian Versus the Apocalypse by Katie Coyle
The Elites by Natasha Ngan
Showcase Sunday is hosted by Books, Biscuits & Tea.

Good restraint! 🙂 I'm not sure if I should request Katya's War and then read the first book quickly to catch up, but I think I've got so much already, and a bunch that I want to request on NetGalley, that I might just wait until that one's out normally. Hope you enjoy these and have a great week! 🙂
The Elites sounds really interesting, and the cover for Bellman & Black is so beautiful! I hope that you enjoy your books 🙂 xxx
I'm actually VERY impressed by your restraint in book-buying! I'm awful, as soon as I walk by a book aisle then they've got me, especially if there is a deal on! And we're actually going out this week with the intention of buying books, (to be fair Stephen's going away with work for 3 weeks so he needs some books to take with him – I'm going to buy some to keep me company – so we do have an excuse!) but it's not going to end well for my bank balance!
Your books sound AMAZING! I especially love the sound of Vivian Versus the Apocalypse – it sounds so interesting!
Hope you have a lovely week Ellie, and thank you so much for stopping by my blog too 🙂

I agree with Megan! I love your buying restraint! I get into a lot of trouble with Amazon's 1 click button!
THE ELITES sound great!
Check out what I got this week!!!

The Elites sounds fantastic! The cover's really pretty too.
I really want to start the Russalka Chronicles, it sounds amazing!
Great haul! Happy reading 🙂
Well done, sometimes it's just a bit overwhelming when too much comes in in one week I think. Though very lovely opening parcels. Hmm! I hope you enjoy these.
It looks like you've got four awesome books. I love the cover of The Elites. I hope you enjoy reading them all.
Bellman and Black looks like an interesting book, I'll have to keep my eyes open for that one. Happy Reading!
I LOVE the sound of Vivian Versus the Apocalypse and imagine it'll be off my wishlist and straight into my basket soon! I'm very excited to read The Elites – the finished copy is gorgeous! I hope you enjoy your new reads! 🙂
I hadn't heard of any of these, but I love the title of Vivian Versus the Apocalypse! I'll have to check that one out!

I'm really curious about Bellman & Black! I've yet to read The Thirteenth Tale so I'm not sure the writing itself would be my cup of tea or not but I definitely want to give it a try.
