Out of My Pocket #26

Due to my book buying addiction I started this  feature on my blog where I post about the book(s) I bought that week. Not something I plan on having every week – though it seems to be turning out that way.  So here’s what I bought this week!

Previous OoMP posts can be found here!

I tried to use my remaining $8-something gift card money on this book but I didn't have enough change on me to make up the difference from $9.49. So I still have that $8-something gift card left and used my real money on this book. It's the first real money I have spent so far this year on a book. I will use that $8 on the new Kim Harrison hard cover later this month I imagine.Bone Crossedby Patricia Briggs

In a world where “witches, vampires, werewolves, and shape-shifters live beside ordinary people” (Booklist), it takes a very unusual woman to call it home. By day, Mercy Thompson is a car mechanic in Eastern Washington. By night, she explores her preternatural side. As a shape-shifter with some unusual talents, Mercy’s found herself maintaining a tenuous harmony between the human and the not-so- human on more than one occasion. This time she may get more than she bargained for. (goodreads.com)

The cover is so shimmery! If you move it around it's like Mercy's hair is shimmering in the moonlight. I love it! I really want to read this one now but I have two other books I need to read for February - crap and a review copy to read, too, which I forgot about because it's an e-copy and I normally don't read those (I hate reading on my computer) but it was a gift. So, you know. :)
