More books for review!

Yesterday, I got more books from Zondervan that I'm really excited to share with you. It's my 3rd time receiving physical books, but the excitement never wanes(:

*Pssst: please excuse the lousy photos. I was way too excited to take good photos.

This is the biggest package I've gotten so far <3
The reason for all this books is that I (sadly) haven't read the Dragons of Starlight series by Bryan Davis before, so Charleen very kindly sent me the whole series.

The Dragons of Starlight Series consists of four books: Starlighter, Warrior, Diviner and Liberator:
Sorry bout the camera strap. I was too excited and didn't notice.
As you can see, there was a slight mistake and I got two copies of Starlighter and Diviner, but not Warrior. They're sending over a copy of Warrior so I can do a full review, but more importantly (for you guys anyway), I've been given permission to host a giveaway for the extra copies of
Starlighter (Book 1) and Diviner (Book 3)! I'm still working out the details, so feel free to tweet/comment with suggestions.

Another really awesome looking book I got is Aldo's Fantastical Movie Palace by Jonathan Friesen:

I'm really interested in the magical movie theatre premise. I can't wait to read it.

Here's the book trailer:

Well, I know what books that I'm going to bring with me to Hokkaido (I have a 16 hour train ride, a plane ride, and a lot of train time ^^)

First Physical Book Review Copy

Guess who's over-the-moon with happiness? Yes, it's me! Less than an hour ago (less than half-an-hour ago in fact), the DHL person came to my door with a package. It looks like this:

And the close up shows that Zondervan is the one who sent it to me~
This is the first time that I got a physical review copy. For most, Singapore is too far to mail something to, which is why I'm so happy. While ebook copies are good too, my heart lies with the printed word. I'm sure you're wondering about the book (why look at the package? Show us the goods!). Well, it's a really lovely hardback copy:
I haven't read the book yet so I can't tell you the synopsis, but after reading the leaflet/insert, I found a book trailer, so you can watch that instead of reading a synopsis. But if you don't want to, my sister summed up the synopsis she read with ""half angel half human got love story. I like."
