Grimspace was one of my Want Books picks back in July but it was out of stock then. I was planning to order it but I was surprised to see it available in Fully Booked for P315 when I passed by there last week. Since I've been reading a lot of YA lately, I thought I'd give this one a try since it's sci-fi and I haven't ( Read more... )

The mailman delivers a notice on a piece of paper and then you have to go and pick up the package in the nearest post office.

I've been reading a lot of YA lately and I thought it would be a good idea to take a break and sink my teeth into some good old fantasy.

The Murder of Bindy Mackenzie is the third installment in the Ashbury series by Jaclyn Moriarty although the books are just loosely connected and they can be read out of order. I've read and liked the first two Ashbury books - Feeling Sorry for Celia and The Year of Secret Assignments. I decided to pick this one up ( Read more... )

I've been looking forward to getting this book ever since I featured it in my Want Books meme. Oh gosh, was it only just last month that I posted about these books? It feels longer! I was so excited to get this one by special order from Fully Booked for P460. It's not that cheap, I know. But not bad for a trade ( Read more... )
