Physical Review Copies:
- Nothing this week!
Digital Review Copies:
- The God Game — Danny Tobey [adult sci-fi]
- I got invited to join a blog tour for this one and accepted, so they sent me the eARC and the print copy will come later. It’s about a creepy, fantastical video game run by a cruel AI that makes them do bad things in the game, and the players don’t know if there will be real-life consequences or not.
- Jane Anonymous — Laurie Faria Stolarz [YA contemporary]
- This one wasn’t on my radar until I got an email from the publishers inviting me to download it a few days ago, and I couldn’t help myself because the publicist compared it to Courtney Summers’ Sadie, which was one of my favorite reads of 2018. It’s about a girl who was kidnapped, tortured, and escaped, and how she’s struggling to re-adjust to normal life, and it alternates between “then” and “now” chapters.
- Dead Meat: Day 3 — Nick Clausen [YA horror]
- The third installment in the super fun YA zombie novella serial I’ve been loving! The second one ended on a big cliffhanger so I’m really excited for this one and will probably go ahead and read it this coming week.
Kindle Purchases/Freebies:
- Nothing this week!
Physical Purchases & Gifts:
- The Queen of Nothing — Holly Black [YA fantasy; pre-order]
- Naturally, after liking book 1 and ADORING book 2, I had to pre-order the finale. I doubt I’ll get to it this year, though, sadly — I really want to focus on ARCs right now.
- Pippa Park Raises Her Game — Erin Yun [MG contemporary; giveaway prize]
- This was a giveaway I entered through a children’s librarian emailing list I get, and I didn’t even know I won until it showed up in the mail. It’s so cute! And it’s nice to get an ARC that I’m not obligated to review (though we all know I will review it when I get to it because I like reviewing everything).
Library & Kindle Unlimited Borrows:
- Farmhand, Vol. 2 — Rob Guillory [adult horror/sci-fi graphic novel; hoopla]
- I just read the first volume a couple of nights ago and LOVED it. It was so funny and subversive and creepy, all at the same time.
- No Ivy League — Hazel Newlevant [NA contemporary graphic novel; hoopla]
- I checked this out from Hoopla a few months ago and didn’t pick it up in time, but I figured since I had some checkouts left for November with no plans for what to do with them, I might as well try again.
- Memetic — James Tynion IV [adult horror graphic novel; hoopla]
- I haven’t had good luck with James Tynion IV’s work before, but this one intrigued me.
