Colleen Gleason's latest Gardella Vampire Chronicles book, Rises the Night, was released on Tuesday. I went out today and bought it! Yeah! She even has a link for a $1 coupon for Borders on her blog, For All the World to See! The reviews are REALLY good, and the eye candy on the cover isn't bad either!! Can't wait to read it!!
Also picked up the new Marilyn Manson CD: Eat Me, Drink Me. It's really good. Very dark and rather goth compared to his other slightly more Rock albums. I'm liking it alot!! 
It was also the first day of the Bloomington Public Library Sale, so I popped in. You know me....always looking for a bargain! I came away with a couple of STACKS of books!! You know it's bad when your basket is getting too heavy to carry! I tried to take a couple of shots. Book Porn, as Chris at Stuff As Dreams are Made On, calls it! Here is a highlight of the books I got:
- 2 Charlaine Harris books - Grave Sight and Dead as a Doornail
- The Great Gatsby by F. Scott Fitzgerald
- Over Her Dead Body by Kate White
- The Mermaid Chair by Sue Monk Kidd
- Best of Friends by Cathy Kelly
- Deja Dead by Kathy Reichs
- Harm None - A Rowan Gant Investigation by M. R. Sellars
- Death at Glamis Castle - A Victorian Mystery by Robin Paige

- The Warlock in Spire of Himself by Christopher Stasheff
- Holes by Louis Sachar

Great Bookporn ;) Oohlala! I think I may have to go check out our library's sale corner today too...like I need more books :p
Wow! You made a haul! I got "Rises the Night" today too! wooohoo! I hope to read it next week.
Good haul! My library only puts crappy books out for book sales...sucks big time!
I am jealous! What a great collection:)
You go girl and all for less than $20! Love the pic.
Marilyn Manson is geting a divorce and he and his wife are fighting over his colection of dead animals. That's dark.
That is a great haul, Stephanie! Wow! You definitely have some entertaining reading ahead of you.
Wow! Good buys. Our library sales stink.
You did great. How can you pass up paperbacks for 50 cents apiece, right? (I did the math.)
Don't tell anyone, but I have Manson on my Ipod. My kids think I'm too old to like him and Green Day, but there they are right next to Stevie Wonder and N*SYNC.
That's quite a pile of books! I don't think I have ever been in the library where I live, how aweful is that? They hold book reading groups so I might check it out and see what there selection of books is like. Cheap books are always good :)
Wow, heck of a haul!! And, you won't regret buying Colleen's book, I promise.
Love your new look!
I'm so jealous of your library loot! :)
Whoa, what a great haul!
You're going to love Colleen's latest book. It is soooooo intense.
What a wonderful pile of books. How fortunate to live close to a library that has such wonderful book sales.
Wow! Lots of great books! I wish there were more book sales where I am.
