In My Mailbox (2)

So it was a calm week for me.  I didn't buy anything, nor did I recieve anything in the mailbox.  Until I made a trip to Costco today and scored the following

    

The Hunger Games and Catching Fire by Suzanne Collins!!

These two books were hiding from me.  I love finding books at Costco because they're almost always cheaper than anywhere else.  I've already read The Hunger Games, but I wanted to own it.  I'm so excited to read Catching Fire!!

What book did you first discover on a blog?

Let’s talk about that book you know, the one you discovered only because you read about it on a book blog and then you realized you couldn’t live without it!  And then you read it and you loved it!

    

   For me, that book was The Hunger Games.  How this book managed to escape my attention is beyond me.  I'm sure I first saw it over at Debbie's World of Book.  I didn't pay much attention to it then.  But, it kept showing up on almost every blog I found.   So, I looked it up on Goodreads, Amazon, Barnes and Noble, etc.  I immediately noticed the fantastic reviews it received.  So it went on my TBR list.  But, I didn't jump out and buy it.  I was browsing the library one day and found it on the shelf.  I picked up and haven't looked back since!  I loved it!!!  I haven't read Catching Fire yet, but intend on buying copies of both.  I know I'll read them again, so I would rather own them!  Now, I'm sure I would have discovered this series eventually.  But, I'm so glad I was introduced to it through the book blogging community!
