Showcase Sunday #9

Deadlands series by Lily Herne*

The Humans by Matt Haig and Whatever it Takes by Adele Parks




























Showcase Sunday is hosted by the lovely Vicky at Books, Biscuits and Tea. It's a chance for bloggers to show of their weekly book swag and an opportunity to meet other bloggers and talk about all things bookish!

I hope everyone's had a wonderful week. I know some fellow book bloggers have been getting involved with a 24-hour readathon. I'm definitely going to participate next year, I've had enjoyed checking out everybody's updates on their blogs and Twitter.  

I received the Deadlands series for review from Constable & Robinson. The books are written by a mother-daughter writing duo, Sarah and Savannah Lotz. I think it's a really good idea to team up with someone to write a book, particularly with a family member. It's a dystopian book series about a zombie apocalypse in Cape Town. 

I also got The Humans by Matt Haig and Whatever it Takes by Adele Parks at World Book Night 2014. I met some of the featured authors at the Library of Birmingham including Matt and Adele (who were lovely!). It was a really fun night and I really enjoyed hearing about all of the author's inspirations and experience with reading.

Make sure you let me know what book goodies you've received this week! 


*Thanks to Constable & Robinson for sending me the Deadlands series

    World Book Night sounds like such fun! I'm planning to do the read-a-thon next year too. Couldn't pull it off this year! Happy reading! Looks like you got some great books - I'm especially intrigued by the Adele Parks.

    The Humans! One of my favourite reads from last year. It's fantastic! Hope you love it as much as me. :D
    That's great that you had such a fun night. I wish it was something I could have participated in too. Maybe one year.
    Happy reading!

    I've heard lots of great things about Humans - and Matt is lovely, isn't he? (I met him at the London Book Fair last year) Hope you enjoy his book! :)

    I didn't realise Deadlands was part written by Sarah Lotz, I've just read her new book The Three and it was fantastic. I think I have a copy of Deadlands around here somewhere so I will have to bump it up the TBR.
