Yes, last week I didn't receive anything so I didn't make an IMM post. Although, this week I received two and I should have gone to the bookstore to get Strange Angels, but Daddy was too tired to take me there. Well, I got two Tess Gerritsen's books, the seventh and the eighth in the Jane Rizzoli & Maura Isles series. How exciting is that!? Loved it.
Bought:Keeping The Dead (UK version of The Keepsake) by Tess Gerritsen
For Review:

ReplyDeleteYES! Isn't it AWESOME!?
ReplyDelete@Ruperto: On the cover it says it will be released on June 27th. :-) I was chosen along with other 4 people by Dustin (he moderator of Tess Gerritsen Fans' group on Goodreads) to get an Advance Copy, read it and review it. Yeah. Do you have Goodreads? You definitely should!
@Jillian: Thanks! I kinda of did a happy dance when I got this. So awesome! :-)
yeah im a member of goodreads! you are so lucky!!!Ive been a fan of tess way back in 1998 after reading the surgeon. again i would like to recommend to you her book entitled BLOODSTREAM. it's also a medical thriller with a twist! i've read all her books except ICE COLD and i still have to wait for the paperback to be released here.huhuhu,the book in hardcover is a bit expensive here that's why i will wait for another year to read it...that's why you're so lucky! i only buy bargain books because im still looking for work... anyways cant wait to read your review, but wait, i cant! i want to read the book first, and that'll be in 2011, whenever the paperback will be out.huhu.GOD bless and dont stop reading! GOD bless!
ReplyDeleteNunca li nada dessa autora! *praticamente só ler chick-lit* Mas como é o começo dessa série?
ReplyDeleteOutra coisa pra matar minha curiosidade XD O que esse "Goodreads"? É tipo.. um fórum de discussão ou algo do tipo? Oo
^^
Você fala tanto da Tess que eu fico MORRENDO de vontade de ler! HAHA Acho que na próxima eu vou comprar um dela. Raíla, me dê uma dica: por qual dela começo?

Happy reading, great haul!
ReplyDelete@Ruperto: Wow! Since 1998? That's too long. I've known her books since last year, I think. I am so sorry you can't get a copy as soon as it comes out. I'd do what's possible for me to do so you could get one. Let's work on it! :) And, yeah, I've heard of Bloodstream, but I still have 6 of her books to read, so...
ReplyDelete@Mariana e @Iris: Em ordem, a série é composta por, até agora, oito livros: O Cirurgião, O Dominador, O Pecador, Dublê de Corpo, Desaparecidas, The Mephisto Club, The Keepsake e Ice Cold. Esses três últimos ainda não foram lançados aqui... Mas você pode encontrar os outros facilmente. :-) Então, comecem por O Cirurgião, apesar de que ela tem outros livros fora dessa série, como O Jardim de Ossos, que eu ainda não li, mas dizem ser MUITO bom.
ReplyDelete@Mariana: Goodreads é um site tipo o Skoob, mas tem as páginas dos autores, comunidades, etc. :-)
yes.ive known her novels for quite some time now. im getting goosebumps raila for you to even consider giving me a copy of a book.even if you cant give me one im just happy that you thought of me. you are so young and full of energy. i can imagine that you are so bless. im already 29 years old but it doesn't stop me from reading.i love to read!i see you have six of tess's books,but you wont regret getting BLOODSTREAM.hehehe.im just glad we share the same book like tess's or we wont be able to connect since you basically read young adult. but you know what?when i was a kid i love the SWEET VALLEY HIGH books.and last 2008, when i still had work i bought all the 148 books in the series! i just love to read jessica and elizabeth wakefield and their friends.and after that i also got the SWEET VALLEY UNIVERSITY i think its a 62books. i know, its a bit old school but those books were really awesome! i also read love stories, and nancy drew novels. im quite a wide reader.i dont collect all my books so after reading the SWEET VALLEY books i sold them so i can buy new books to read. my collection only are the harry potter books and the lord of the rings books.and all the books that you've posted on your blog really looks good.everytime i log on to the computer i always visit your blog.i kinda have my eye on WHISPER, im going to my favorite bargain bookshop and hope to find a copy. okay i'll stop.my message is a bit long hehehe. GOD bless!
ReplyDelete@Ruperto: Yes. You truly deserve to get a copy! I just emailed Tess about it and I hope she replies asap. Aw, I had never heard of these books, but I can imagine how was it, I think. Nancy Drew is famous... That I've heard about once. Hahaha. Thank you so much! You've been very nice... Thank you for visiting my blog! And, YES, you definitely should read WHISPER. Phoebe is so wonderful, be it as a writer or as a person! Oh, I don't mind... I love long messages! :-) Thanks!
ReplyDeleteI haven't heard of EITHER of these books, but they sound great! Happy reading. :D
