"You Are A Winner!" Part Two

Okay, I was telling myself I would not post anymore today, but . . . . .

You probably guessed what I am about to say, but I will tell you anyway. I just won another giveaway! $15 iTunes GC. Hey, it will be nice to have a little spending $$ for iTunes, which I never had before today. :)

I got in contact with the author who wrote the blog post for the $25 Amazon GC, and the author who is supposed to get in contact with me, and I cleared my confusion about something . . . It was something dumb, and I am a little embarrassed. But anyways, he will be contacting me soon and will instruct me how to get my prizes. Which is right on time, because my cart on Amazon has come to just under $25 - $24.94 to be exact, and the total kept going down, so I was able to add another book.
I will definitely be filming an actual video when I get all these books in my hands. Here are the books I am getting from Amazon: I am purchasing these books use, but they are in great condition, and I don't mind.

  
The Acts of Faith ser. by Davis Bunn & Janette Oke

Now, I own The Centurion's Wife on my Kindle app, but I have not gotten to read it, because this is one of those books I would prefer to read from a print copy. So, when I saw that this book was on sale for cheap, I had to get it, and I added the rest of the books from the series so that I could move on to the next book when I finish. Each of these books are set back in the Bible days, and they all follow the time when our Lord, Jesus, walked the earth. 

Between the Lines by Jodi Picoult & Samantha Van Leer

I have been hearing SO MUCH about Off the Pages, and I felt that I should read this book before getting that one. Which is at Costco. near my house.

The Well: Living Waters series by Stephanie Landsem
This is only the first book in the series, but I read up on the plot, and it is so INTRIGUING! As you can see, I love Christian/Historical Fictions, and this one is set around the time that Jesus spoke to the Samaritan woman at the well, and everything that happened after that encounter. So I am super excited to read it.

As you can see,  I pretty much have a theme of the books I am getting with all my giveaway winnings(CLICK HERE to see the other books I am getting). If I get some cash from my parents, I will be getting the other books in the Living Waters series, and The Books of the Infinite series, by R.J. Larson. I was actually going to get R.J. Larson's books at the beginning, but the company on Amazon that was selling them does not ship to Puerto Rico*.  Anyways, I am going to try and get my hands on those book the next time I have over fifty bucks in my hand, because even used copies of those books are a little pricey for my island.

*Puerto Rico. This little invisible island has so much bad rep to the States, and it's not very fair. We are not eligible for so many things for so long. But over the past year, I have noticed that things have changed a little bit. For instance, I did not think the Book Depository would give PR free shipping. THEY DO. Which is EPIC, because I was looking at their prices, and they are better than what I expected, especially for newer books. 

I'm done babbling. Keep an eye open for more posts tomorrow. Look at my review blog. You know the drill. Lots of new content coming soon!
