Bloomsbury has put a ton of its ebooks on sale over at Amazon, including some really interesting YA ones. Here’s a complete list of what’s on sale. I’d personally recommend buying the following, if you’re interested:
- Faerie Wars by Herbie Brennan (YA fantasy) | $2.51 | my review
- The Goose Girl by Shannon Hale (YA fantasy) | $2.24 | my review
- The Frog Princess by E. D. Baker (MG fantasy) | $2.45 | no review, but it’s totally cute!
- Mister Creecher by Chris Priestly (YA horror/historical fiction) | $2.51 | my review
- Jonathan Strange & Mr Norrell by Susanna Clarke (historical fantasy) | $2.99 | no review, but it’s awesome
- Magic Under Glass by Jaclyn Dolamore (YA fantasy romance) | $2.51 | my review
I’m thinking of buying a few books for myself, but I’m not sure which ones to get. Can anyone tell me if these’re books I might like? The books: Pirates!, Flawless (Cyrano de Bergerac retelling!), My Fair Godmother, In a Heartbeat, Coffeehouse Angel, Dirty Little Secrets, Rats: Observations on the History & Habitat of the City’s Most Unwanted Inhabitants
Unfortunately I don’t have enough Amazon gift cards to buy all of them! So I need to pick, like, two. Sob.
