My Book Haul/ In My Mailbox

The Story Siren hosts a weekly meme where bloggers can share what goodies they've purchased/received this week. If you get a chance head over to The Story Siren and check out what everyone is up to!

Week two of the book buying ban is over - and still going strong! Yay me! Still my winning streak is going strong so I did get one win-book in the mail as well as a couple of arcs...

The Long Weekend - Savita Kalhan

Publisher: UK - Andersen Press

Sam knows that he and his friend Lloyd made a colossal mistake when they accepted the ride home. They have ended up in a dark mansion in the middle of nowhere with man who means to harm them. But Sam doesn't know how to get them out. They were trapped, then separated. Now they are alone. Will either of them get out alive?

I won this at Daisy Chain Book Reviews and it looks like a proper spooky read. Also as it's not a particularly long book I think I might try to sneak it into my reading schedule in the next few days.

The next two books I recieved ARCs from Templar publishing and both look like interesting additions to 2012 launches!

India Knight - Kirsty Murray

Publisher: Templar

MADRAS, 1910: two girls are caught up in a scandal that will change their lives forever. Singing and dancing across a hundred stages in a troupe of child performers, they travel by steam train into the heart of India. But as one disaster follows another, money runs short and tempers fray. What must the girls do to protect themselves, and how many lives will be ruined if they try to break free?

Don't Call Me Ishmael - Michael Gerard Bauer

Publisher: Templar Publishing

Hounded by the school bully and struck dumb in the presence of girls, the year doesn't get off to a good start for Ishmael when he is asked to take misfit James Scobie under his wing. However, life takes some unexpected turns as Ishmael and his friends embark on the most embarrassingly awful... and the best year of their lives.
