Yesterday, my mom, sisters, and I went out to a really huge mall in our state to have our yearly shopping trip in which we splurge on whatever we want. Mom gave us $50 each for books (yes, we're all big readers, yo) and so I got some fantastic ones to share with you guys, among other spectacular review books, library books, and more! :DD
My Vlog:
In which I think everything is awesome and I smack around my books, exhibiting my book-abusive tendencies. Oops.

So meet you a crazy cool blogger online and think "It's not possible they can be more awesome than this" but then you watch their vlog and OMG HOW CAN YOU BE SO AWESOME, ASHER? I want to steal you and bring you home and tuck you in a corner of my bookshelf <3
EEEEEEE AMAZING BOOKS!! YES! TFIOS! Wait, I notice you didn't buy a box of tissues with them though. Hmmm. Better make another shopping trip before you begin reading. Oh, oh, oh and I love Graceling and Before I Fall! I mean, one is Lauren Freaking Oliver so duh. And agh, I desperately need to get my hands on Fire soon.
ARTICLE 5!!! WANT WANT WANT!
Also? Your mum? <33333333333333333
I want an ARC of Here as well. Boy, that book looks creepy. I have a copy of Switched and A Discovery of Witches as well, and liked both of them; Enjoy reading!
Here's my Mailbox.
You're so funny in your vlogs! :P "Even though I want to punch her in the face sometimes" - know how you feel! A lot of characters make me feel like that :P. And Article 5 looks great, can't wait to read it. Agree with you about Embrace as well - I usually don't read angel books (that aren't by Cynthia Hand) either, but may have to branch out. Switched is supposed to be really good too, enjoy!
Howl's Moving Castle gets its own separate line, because it's just that awesome. I love both the book and movie - it's like one of those books you just can't not love! Your version has such a great cover too.
Graceling! Loved that one. I think you'll like it (hope you do), though a lot of people don't like the MC (I think she's kinda cool :D). And Bittersweet! So jealous! I really want to read that one, and the cover is so cute.
Awesome mailbox, Asher. Happy reading!
So MANY great books, I dont' know where to begin. Perception is definitely on my list, since I enjoyed Clarity. Hope you enjoy all your books, and thanks for visiting!
Ah! I love Embrace! <3 and the books that follow that.
You got quite a stack there.
$50 for me would only get me maybe 3 or 4 books.. given the prices here in Australia, lol

I'm an accidental stalker who offers gifts. Totally different than a regular one... ;) Great book week. Howl's Moving Castle is my favorite book of all time. ALL TIME. So you'd better love it as much as it loves you.
