Bought:

The Fault in Our Stars by John Green

I am not sure I'll like this book but I had to at least give it a try!

Plus, I haven't read any John Green books yet and I needed to change that.

Austenland (Austenland #1) by Shannon Hale 

Once again, I am not sure if I'll like it but the plot seemed interesting.

Norwegian Wood by Haruki Murakami

Yup, I am gonna love this one. And, not just because it is named after one of my favourite Beatles song. 

Alias Grace by Margaret Atwood 

This one I started reading and so far, it's brilliant.

Have you read any of these books?

What's in your IMM!?

And I got mine with the purple orchid/carnation or whatever the furies marked their victim with in it.

I was a little creeped out.

I started reading this book but I can't yet tell if it's worth all the hype surrounding it.

I hope it is.

I decided to go southern this week and bought: 
The Magnolia League (Magnolia League #1)

by Katie Crouch

After the death of her free-spirited mother, sixteen-year-old Alex Lee must leave her home in northern California to live with her wealthy grandmother in Savannah, Georgia. By birth, Alex is a rightful, if unwilling, member of the Magnolia League, Savannah's long-standing debutante society. She quickly discovers that the Magnolias have made a pact with a legendary hoodoo family, the Buzzards. The Magnolias enjoy youth, beauty and power. But at what price?

As in her popular adult novels, Crouch's poignant and humorous voice shines in this seductively atmospheric story about girls growing up in a magical Southern city.

Such a creeptastic and lovely cover!

Never Sit Down in a Hoopskirt and Other Things I Learned in Southern Belle Hell 

by Crickett Rumley

Expelled from thirteen boarding schools in the past five years, seventeen-year-old Jane Fontaine Ventouras is returning to her Southern roots, and the small town of Bienville, Alabama, where ladies always wear pearls, nothing says hospitality like sweet tea and pimento cheese sandwiches, and competing in the annual Magnolia Maid Pageant is every girl’s dream.

But Jane is what you might call an anti-belle—more fishnets and tattoos than sugar and spice. The last thing on her mind is joining the Magnolia Maid brigade and parading around town in a dress so big she can’t even fi t through doors. So when she finds herself up to her ears in ruffl es and etiquette lessons, she’s got one mission: Escape.

What’s a hipster to do? Will Jane survive Bienville boot camp intact or will they—gasp!—make a Southern belle out of her yet?

Because who doesn't wanna know the intricacies of wearing a hoop skirt! ?!

I am not a huge fan of plain romance books but for some reason this seems like a pretty fun book.Hoping it's Epic! ;) 

Epic Fail By Claire LaZebnik 

Will Elise’s love life be an epic win or an epic fail?

At Coral Tree Prep in Los Angeles, who your parents are can make or break you. Case in point:

As the son of Hollywood royalty, Derek Edwards is pretty much prince of the school—not that he deigns to acknowledge many of his loyal subjects.

As the daughter of the new principal, Elise Benton isn’t exactly on everyone’s must-sit-next-to-at-lunch list.

When Elise’s beautiful sister catches the eye of the prince’s best friend, Elise gets to spend a lot of time with Derek, making her the envy of every girl on campus. Except she refuses to fall for any of his rare smiles and instead warms up to his enemy, the surprisingly charming social outcast Webster Grant. But in this hilarious tale of fitting in and flirting, not all snubs are undeserved, not all celebrity brats are bratty, and pride and prejudice can get in the way of true love for only so long.

IMM is a weekly meme from the wonderful Kristi at Story Siren.

So here are the books I got for this week.

Bought:

The Iron King (Iron Fey #1) by Julie Kagawa

Netgalley:

The Iron Knight (Iron Fey #4) by Julie Kagawa

I know it's not much but honestly one more book and my TBR pile will crash over me and bury me under it till I suffocate and die a bookish death.

*sighs dramatically*

I am not even exaggerating! I was always such a fast reader but honestly unless I read one book per day for the next two months I am probably not gonna be done with it!

So I am taking it slow and not gonna buy any books for a long long time!

I just made The Iron Fey series an exception because I am already too late on starting the series and I sooo want to read and review the books before The Iron Knight comes out! I have heard great things about this book and my expectations have soared rocket-high.

Eeep! Oh and I also got two adult books as a gift from the author.

Seriously everyone how do you guys manage the TBR pile!?
