Showcase Sunday is a weekly meme hosted by Vicky @ Books, Biscuits & Tea. The aim of this event is to showcase our newest books or book related swag and to see what everyone else received for review, borrowed from libraries, bought in bookshops and downloaded onto eReaders this week.

Another week, so many more books! Take a look at my haul!
On Wednesday of this week, I visited Harlequin books in NYC and met with one of their editors who I met at BEA. It was a blast talking books, bloggers and other fun stuff. I was fortunate enough to walk out with a few books of my own!

Indelible (The Twixt #1) by Dawn Metcalf
Legacy (Legacy #1) by Cayla Kluver
Interesting fact I learned while at Harlequin: Cayla was 14 when she started writing the Legacy series and 16 when she finished! And before you question why I got the first and third books in the Steampunk Chronicles series, I already have a copy of the second book. I do wish The Girl in the Steel Corset was a gift edition, though :(
I won this galley from a contest through Shelf Awareness:
Bubble World by Carol Snow
I ordered my copy of this book two weeks ago so I could bring it with me to the signing I attended yesterday (see me with Joanne and Karen Rock below), but I had trouble with Barnes and Noble. So I tried to cancel my order and re-oredered through Amazon. Well, my order didn't cancel and I ended up with two but that's ok because I got one signed for D'vora!
Camp Boyfriend by J.K. Rock
This one I got from D'vora. She went to a signing, bought it for me and got it personalized because she rocks!
Invisibility by Andrea Cremer and David Levithan
This swag comes from the most awesome Rachel Harris! I won a copy of her upcoming book, A Tale of Two Centuries (My Super Sweet Sixteenth Century #2), but since it's not out yet, she wanted to send me a little something in the meantime because she rocks!
This book was given to me by the great Joanne Rock (co-author of Camp Boyfriend shown above). She went to ALA and wanted to pick me up something special. She even got it personalized! I love her!
Dear Mr. Knightley by Katherine Reay
Finally, I got this book at the signing I went to on Saturday. I finally got to meet the most awesome Kimberly Sabatini (I missed out on meeting her at the NYC Teen Fest signings). Then I got to spend a bunch of time with her and she is just full of awesome!
Touching the Surface by Kimberly Sabatini
Finally, this one was free on Amazon this week. I've seen it everywhere and helped with promoting it at times. So I had to grab it.
Barbie Girl (Baby Doll Series #1) by Heidi Acosta
All in all a very nice haul, indeed.
What did you get this week?
