A few days ago, I attended an out-of-state relative's wedding...and what got me excited the most was the FOOD. Because how can you not? Weddings are awesome. They are also great for stuffing your face without anyone badgering you because, well, everyone's pretty much doing the same thing.
But that's not the point here. Did I mention that the place I live has crappy bookstores? I didn't? Well now you know. The thing is, the town where the wedding was held had the best bookstores in my country, so I was pretty excited. And the two bookstores I visited were huuuuge compared to the ones at my town. Like, extra huge. :D When I stopped in front of the entrance I was like, COME TO MAMA!!

As you can see from the picture below, I didn't get as many books as I would've liked but all of these are books that I have been pining after for a while now. And as you can also see, I'm not that good at taking photos.
Books in My Book Haul
1. Silver Shadows by Richelle Mead: I've mentioned before that I don't pre-order books often. Unless it's a book that I really, really want and is very dear to my heart, I usually just wait until my bookstore has it which can take up to months sometimes. Luckily, I found Silver Shadows sitting on a shelf and I felt that it was practically calling out to me: "Kat! Kat! I'm over here!"
2. Love Letters to The Dead by Ava Dellaira: I've seen this book mentioned before a few times and I was intrigued by its cover SO MUCH. It has one of the best covers and if you look at the title, "Love Letters to The Dead", ooooh. Spooky. I'm not one for terrifying stories but since this is a contemporary title...we'll see!
3. The Heir Chronicles by Cinda Williams Chima: To be honest, I don't really know much about this series. I only know that it was recommended quite a few times and Goodreads says it's genre is fantasy, and I'm always happy to indulge myself in the magical world of fantasy.
