A Feast for a Bookworm: Week #24 in 2013
Saturday, June 15, 2013A Feast for a Bookworm is weekly post on Bookworm Dreams blog highlighting new books that I either purchased, borrowed, received for review or on a giveaway.
What is the difference between this post and Stacking The Shelves hosted by Tynga's Reviews? None, whatsoever. But I thought that my post deserved some original title. And this is what my husband and me came up with. :)
Something a little bit different this time:
The Mask Carver's Son by Alyson Richman Historical Fiction, Japan (Edelweiss)
The Husband's Secret by Liane Moriarty Contemporary, Chick Lit (NetGalley)
Zombies Vs Robots: Diplomacy Anthology, Science Fiction (NetGalley)
Big thanks to Berkley Trade, Putnam & Open Road.
• The Mask Carver's Son is set in a Japan, I am always interested to learn more about eastern cultures, I hope there will be a lot of interesting facts. :)
• The Husband's Secret is a new book by Liane Moriarty whose What Alice Forgot I liked (contemporary fiction about amnesia). In The Husband's Secret heroine finds a letter to her from her husband in case he dies. As always curiosity gets the better of her and she reads it although her husband is still alive. I can't wait to find out what his secret is.
• I got an email invite to review Zombies Vs Robots: Diplomacy I haven't heard about this series before, but stories about zombies and robots fighting against each other? It sound better than when they attack us. ;) I wonder if a zombie bites a robot does the robot become a zombie robot?
What do you think I should read first? Did you already read something from this pile? What did you get this week?
Feel free to leave links to your lists of new books in comments. ;)

I want to read The Husband's Secret, I'm so curious now!! Thanks for showcasing, I love looking at your new bookies every week! I think you should request Tumble and Fall, it's still on NG. It's a contemporary-come-scifi: the world is ending and the teen protagonists have to make the best of what time is left to them. :D
ReplyDeleteThanks for hopping by!

Come and check out my weekly book haul feature, Stocktake Saturday.
I know me too! It's such an intriguing plot! I love watching your new books too! We usually have something different and fantastic (often literally fantastic lol).
DeleteThey rejected my request for Tumble and Fall so I will have to wait until it's published, but since I give priority to books I receive for review, I doubt I will read it soon. Maybe if your review is awesome I push it up my tbr. ;)
I've got The Husband's Secret too. I'm really looking forward to reading that one. Great haul.
ReplyDeleteI'm also looking forward to reading it, I hope it's even better than 'What Alice Forgot'. :)
DeleteHappy reading!
