I didn't actually buy most of these books and I honestly don't know where all this luck is coming from (maybe it's good karma for posting my first ARCycling review and then donating the book back to the program? Honestly, I just don't know.) The books I did spend actual money on are ones that, let's face it, I was going to buy no matter what. Plus two $1 books, but does that even count as spending money? I'm going to say no.

I also scored an ARC of this book from Shelf Awareness. According to GoodReads it's "...a haunting novel about a grieving woman who discovers the lost letters of novelist Victor Hugo, awakening a mystery that spans centuries." Super excited to read & review this one too!
Then, I won these 4 ARCs from a Chronicle Books Facebook contest (seriously I don't know where all this luck is coming from!) I entered the contest on a whim and I'll probably never read the middle grades title, but the first three look quite promising.

And these last two I got from my library's Book Sale for $1 each. I've had my eye on them since they were published, so for that price I really couldn't help myself. And I'm supporting my library, right? Yea well, that's what I keep telling myself anyway.
The Reading Promise, by Alice Ozma & Jim Brozina
The Weird Sisters, by Eleanor Brown
