Avalon by Mindee Arnett
LOOK AT THAT COVER. It's so awesome. Also this book is sci-fi. That was enough to make me grab it haha.
Cruel Beauty by Rosamund Hodge
I've actually already read this one and it was absolutely incredible. Mostly because the world building was so epic. Also, yet another beautiful cover :3
Dear Killer by Katherine Ewell
Assassin protagonist? Exploration of the line between good and evil? BABY I'M THERE.
Death Sworn by Leah Cypess
Another assassin book! I'm just always pulled in by dem assassins.
Elusion by Claudia Gabel and Cheryl Klam
Sci-fi again. I sense a pattern arising here...haha
Faking Normal by Courtney C Stevens
The synopsis sounds so gooood. A quiet and awkward love interest? YES.
Her Dark Curiosity by Megan Shepherd
I really liked The Madman's Daughter, so I'm interested to see what new villains the author can whip up in the sequel!
House of Ivy and Sorrow by Natalie Whipple
I do believe this one is about witches, but I know next to nothing else about it. Okay, the cover was the thing that made me request it; so shoot me.
Into the Still Blue by Veronica Rossi
Why of COURSE I'm going to request this one! And yeah, I've totally already read it. Definitely slightly sad that the series is over. I want to see more of these amazing characters.
Panic by Lauren Oliver
I loved Delirium (only the first book- the others were just "likes") so I'm interested to see what Oliver will do with a new series about fear instead of love.
Salvage by Alexandra Duncan
SCIFI. That is all.
Sea of Shadows by Kelley Armstrong
I've never read any of her YA series, and wanted to give one a go.
Warrior by Ellen Oh
I know a lot of people found Prophecy a bit lacklustre, but I actually quite enjoyed it. We'll see where Ellen goes with this one. (The cover of this one isn't shown because I had 13 images, and 12 kind of fits better, so Warrior got shoved aside. Sorry, buddy.)
Sorry not sorry for downloading so many titles. What else did you expect Harper? :P
I've read a few of the titles, since I just couldn't wait to read them, but the reviews probably won't be coming until the end of this year/start of next year.
What books have you guys gotten recently? Any titles here that interest you?
Good on you for getting auto-approved! Looks like you picked up some absolutely awesome reads! I haven't ventured into Edelweiss yet, I fear it will be bad for my already growing review pile. So jealous for you getting Panic and Sea of Shadows!
ReplyDeleteHere's my STS.
Hope you get approved for the books you've requested! *crosses fingers*
DeleteOMG YOU GOT PANIC!!! I NEED THAT SO MUCH! D: Hope you enjoy it and everything else as well!
ReplyDeleteOkay... I just downloaded it... Haha, that's how much I needed it in my life. I'm not sure if I was approved and I forgot or never got the email or if it's just like always downloadable. Either way, so happy!
DeleteLaura @ Music Plus Books
yeah, I didn't get an email either! But then I went on Edelweiss and noticed I could download all the titles and was like o.O
DeleteCongrats to you too :D
Eee they have so many titles and I went nuts too when I got autoapproved a while back >.<
ReplyDeleteHappy reading, hun! <33
haha of course! So many amazing Harper titles
DeleteI know what you mean about not getting approved. I was approved too for many of these. Downloaded what I thought I could read. Enjoy them!
ReplyDeleteYeah, Harper have never approved me for anything, but then suddenly BAM I could download everything. So exciting :D
DeleteThanks Natalie :)
Nara, we all go wild when Harper Teen has those amazing titles. I know right. You got a great selection of titles. Come check out my haul as well.

Harper just have THE BEST titles. Balzer and Bray seem to have a lot of the ones I'm interested in!
DeleteCongrats on getting auto-approved, Nara! And so many AMAZING titles-Hope you enjoy each and every one of them.
ReplyDeleteThe one I'm SUPER excited for is Avalon(love sci-fi too!).
Happy Reading!
YES AVALON! It sounds so amazing. I'm going to start it soon because I don't think I can wait until January to read it haha
DeleteI'm so jealous over "Sea of Shadows". I got declined. Happy reading for you!
ReplyDeleteTsuki’s STS
Aww, that's disappointing! But I guess you can still read it when it comes out :)
DeleteI got approved for Dear Killer as well as No One Else Can Have You! It was the first time I got approved for something on Edelweiss, so I was REALLY happy. Finally :)
ReplyDeleteAvalon sounds good - I like sci-fi.
"Assassin protagonist? Exploration of the line between good and evil? BABY I'M THERE." YES!
Faking Normal is new to me, but it sounds like something I'd enjoy.
I know right! I'd always gotten rejected and had pretty much given up but then I randomly got approved for Avalon and Cruel Beauty (those were the two I had originally requested) and went on Edelweiss and realised I could download all of them!
DeleteCongrats to you for getting approved too :D
YAY!!! I got auto-approved for all of HC's titles as well! When I first realized it, my jaw literally dropped, and then I proceeded to do a happy dance which probably looked more like a seizure. BUT WHO CARES. It's nice to see that things are looking better for the both of us in Edelweiss now; publishers on there used to hate me. Maybe they still do. :P But anyway, I can't wait for your thoughts on all of these! You have to admit that HC has some of the prettiest covers in the market. They're always one-of-a-kind and so beautiful.
ReplyDeleteGreat haul!
I KNOW RIGHT!! I had a huge smile on my face for the rest of the day after getting auto-approved. SO EXCITING :D And congrats to you for getting autoapproved too!
DeleteThe covers are so ridiculously pretty! Whoever their cover designers are, I salute you.
Thanks Meg :)
Some of these look really great, will definately be adding a bunch to my TBR list. Love the look of Avalon. My STS
ReplyDeleteThe cover of Avalon is just so pretty! And it's sci-fi, so that's a bonus!
DeleteHahaha, I had the same problem. Me: I'm not going to request any thing. *looks on Edelweiss* Holy crap I can download everything! *download like a mad man* So we have a lot of books in common. Happy reading :D!
ReplyDeleteMel@thedailyprophecy.
hahahaha so dang true. I was actually on an eARC ban before this, but that's totally gone out the window :P
DeleteThanks Mel :)
I cannot wait to read Elusion and Cruel Beauty. I hope they're as good as they sound! Enjoy them and happy reading. :)
ReplyDeleteMy STS
Cruel Beauty was amazing- the world building was so good! Elusion sounds quite good as well- we'll have to read it to find out whether they really are that good!
DeleteWe have a lot of similar books :))
ReplyDeleteStop by at mine too <3 We have tons of giveaways :)
http://www.lite-rate-ture.com/2013/10/stacking-the-shelves-26/
I think a lot of people have gotten whitelisted by Harper recently, so it's not surprising that we have similar hauls!
DeleteNice haul. Hope you enjoy them :)
ReplyDeletehttp://www.itchingforbooks.com/2013/10/stacking-shelves-58.html
Thanks Shane :)
DeleteCongratulations! I hope you read ALL THE BOOKS!
ReplyDeleteDear Killer is definitely a book I will be putting on my TBR list. I am looking forward to Her Dark Curiosity as well.
I hope you like Sea of Shadows. Kelley Armstrong's writing is very enjoyable.
I am indeed reading ALL THE BOOKS!!! All of them just sound so awesome :D
DeleteHow good does Dear Killer sound! It'll be interesting reading about an assassin in a contemporary setting rather than in a high fantasy!
I've read Bitten by Kelley Armstrong, and thought that was fairly good. it was one of her adult novels, though, so we'll see how her YA series go :)
Haha, I had this edition over two weeks, since I was auto-approved. I tried to be good. It just wasn't happening. I haven't picked up Avalon yet, trying to squeeze it in somewhere. I'm hopefully starting Cruel Beauty soon, so, glad to hear it's good! So many pretty covers! I'm totally In love with Elusion, but Dear Killer- the synopsis brought me in all on it's own.
ReplyDeleteHappy reading! :)
Heres mine
Kirsty @ StudioReads
Harper have such nice covers. They're seriously drool worthy.
DeleteI'm just about to start Avalon! I've heard a lot of good things about it so I'm rather excited :D
YES! Dear Killer sounds really compelling :)
Wohoo! I almost died of excitement when Harper Teen whitelisted me for their titles, but then I started to pretty much drown under all their ARCs and most of the ones I was reading were not that great. :(
ReplyDeleteHowever, I'm super excited about Into the Still Blue and Deathsworn!
Enjoy your lovely books! :)
Nick - My Haul
aww that's disappointing :( I've only read four or five of the titles so far, but they've all been quite good for me! Nothing under four stars as yet. Hopefully this streak continues!
DeleteInto the Still Blue is really good! A nice end to the series :)
Love thehaul you got. Sea of Shadows, Her Dark Curiousity, Cruel Beauty and Elusion are all books I too have gotten to read in the past few weeks! Lets hope they are great books!
ReplyDeleteHappy Reading!
Here are my new books.
Hopefully they will be.
DeleteNara, thank you for bringing to my attention this whitelisting. I didn't know that Edelweiss also has the auto-approved function of NG. I didn't realize that I got whitelisted for all Harper Collins title until I read your comment on my STS. I checked Edelweiss and good god, I can DL all titles under HP. Sure, it's a dream come true but would I be able to read them all?
ReplyDeleteAs you know, I also also got some of the same titles as yours but I'm contemplating to DL more. Help me. Hahaha. With so many titles up for grabs, I wish I was someone who don't need any sleep.
haha no problem Charlotte! I didn't know I'd been whitelisted either, but then I went to browse and I COULD DOWNLOAD EVERYTHING. Clearly I went wild :P
DeleteDownload them all! You have plenty of time to read them because they all come out next year, some even as late as March and April!
Hahahaha, you did go a bit wild! Congrats on being whitelisted! I'm sure I would have done that much too. :-p Hope they're as good as the covers are pretty!
ReplyDeleteI've already read and reviewed three of them so I'm going to say it's okay if I go wild on these things :P And the ones I've read so far have been amazing :D
DeleteI know this post is old, but out of curiosity, how do you know if a publisher has whitelisted you? Do you get a notification? Or do you just notice that you can suddenly download review copies instead of needing to request them?
ReplyDeleteI didn't get a notification myself, and I know that a lot of other blogger friends haven't either. Basically, you just go on the site and see that all the titles from those particular publishers have the green "download" button rather than "request".
DeleteHope that helps!
Thank you, Nara! That does help! I think I got auto-approved for another publisher, but I wasn't quite sure. Now I'm thinking maybe I did. Yippee!
