**’Post’ on Sundays is a weekly/biweekly post here at Forever 17 Books where I can share with you all the goodies I have received, bought or borrowed. This post was inspired by In My Mailbox by The Story Siren.**
I have decided to start linking up with Tynga’s Reviews and the Stacking the Shelves meme!
Traded:
-Vampire Academy by Richelle Mead & Frostbite (Vampire Academy #2) by Richelle Mead I traded both these lovelies with Seaira through YA Book Exchange! Excited to finally check this series out!
For Review:
-Shudder (Stitch Trilogy #2) by Samantha Durante Yay! Looking forward to this sequel.
Won:
-All Our Pretty Songs by Sarah McCarry OMG I WON A GOODREADS GIVEAWAY! lol It really DOES happen. This was a total surprise in my mailbox yesterday!
-Where the Stars Still Shine by Trish Doller I won this during Armchair BEA! it was my first choice so I’m really excited to have gotten it. It came as a prize pack so I also got Something Like Normal by Trish Doller, which I’ve already read and loved!
-Goddess (Starcrossed #3) by Josephine Angelini I won this during the blog tour! And it’s signed! It is so shiny and even more beautiful in person.
That’s it for this week! Today is the last day for the Signed ARC of The Darkest Minds giveaway so be sure to check that out if you haven’t already. Link is at the top of the sidebar. I also have another giveaway starting up this week too! Be on the lookout for that.
I may not be around much this week because I’m on vacation, though we aren’t going anywhere. I’ll try to keep up with comments the best I can but I may be slower than usual. 🙂

Whoa, just WHOA! You haven’t read the Vampire Academy series yet!?!? OMG! Sara, this series is freaking AMAZING! (My second favorite series ever) I REALLY hope you read these soon so you can get in on the amazingness. Have you never read a Richelle Mead book? If not you are seriously missing out. I love her adult series too (That’s actually my #1 all time favorite series)
Anyway, awesome book haul.I’ve heard Trish Doller’s books are really good. Have a great vacation and hope you get lots of reading *cough* Vampire Academy *cough*
Sara @ Forever 17 Books
*hangs head in shame* I haven’t read any of her books. I will start VA this month, for sure!
Tanja - Tanychy
I’m so happy to see that you’ve gotten VA books! I can’t wait for you to read them. Maybe you won’t like them as much cause you’ve probably read many books with similar thematic but Dimka is worth reading 😀 Great haul 🙂
Sara @ Forever 17 Books
I haven’t read many vampire books if that’s what you mean! I have a feeling I’ll like it!
Tabitha S.
WHATTT? You haven’t read the VA series yet? Im excited for you to finally start the series! And finally meet Adrian Ivashkov *cough, best book guy ever, cough* (OKAY. Maybe not best, but pretty high up there) And Where the Stars Still Shine was SO freaking good, I can’t wait to see how you like that one as well!
Great haul!

I haven’t! I’ve heard so many things about these boys that I have to check it out!
Natalie Aguirre
I don’t feel bad that I haven’t checked out the Vampire Academy series either. From the comments, I guess we both should.
Sara @ Forever 17 Books
Apparently! lol
tonyalee @ lilybloombooks

Vampire Academy is such a good series. I hope you love it. I am jealous you have a signed copy of Goddess. I can’t wait to it! Enjoy all of your books!
Sara @ Forever 17 Books
I’m super excited to start the VA series!
Jasprit
Oh congratulations on your wins Sara! I can’t wait to read Where the Stars Still Shine and Something Like Normal! I hope you enjoy your vacation and gets loads of awesome reading done too! 🙂
Sara @ Forever 17 Books
Thanks! I hope I get some reading time in!
Jessica Leigh
Ah! Ok, like everyone else has said: I can’t believe you hadn’t read VA! I am SO excited for you!!! (I hope you love it!) We on Twitter require update tweets. 🙂 I am so jealous about Where The Stars Still Shine! I got approved for an e-ARC and then they archived it (seriously the next day while I was on vacation) so I didn’t get to download it! I was so sad.
You just gave me hope for GR giveaways! LOL Enjoy all your books and have a great vacation!

I’ve been informed that I need to do updates so I definitely will when I read it!

To repeat all the above, READ VA!! I love those books, I adore those books, I die for those books. Congrats on the Goodreads book! I won … 2 of them in succession a long time ago, and now … nothing. What a strange site. 😛 Have fun reading!

It seems like everyone is reading Vampire Academy recently! I have the first three books, but I honestly couldn’t get into the first one. I definitely plan to try again though. I want to see what I’m missing!

Great haul. I’m currently reading Goddess but for some reason, I’m just not in the humour of reading lately so even though I started it a few days ago, I’m only about four or five pages in. Enjoy your reads Sara 🙂
Jennifer Messerschmidt
YAY! Finally you are reading Vampire Academy and Frostbite! I can’t believe you haven’t met Adrian Ivashkov. I still need to start the Starcrossed series. All the covers are so pretty. Enjoy!

Great books — I really like how Goddess wrapped everything up!
Kate @ Ex Libris
You are awesome for winning all of those books! Lucky you! 🙂

Yay for VA!!!! I was late to start that series, too, but hey, all the books were out and that is the best when you’re impatient like I am. 🙂 Also, I actually won a Goodreads giveaway once…like two years ago. I still enter them, but I never actually expect to win anything. 🙁 So congrats…that’s apparently a hard feat. 🙂

The Vampire Academy books was a series I really enjoyed. Goddes looks great and is on my TBR list. Happy Reading!
Here are my newest additions.
