Books, News & Other Things (IMM #136)

Happy Sunday!! I missed posting last week and checking out everyone's goodies they received as I was on vacation. It was such an awesome vacation, and I'm a little bummed to be back. Now I get why people who vacation in FL more there. Those beaches are amazing! This week's post will be a bit crazier than normal due to the fact I've not posted in two weeks. I received way more than I normally do, thank you to three surprise boxes that arrived this past week from RH. I've got also got a few links posted below that feature a few titles that arrived this week that are apart of giveaways, and some titles will be part of upcoming giveaways here on the blog.
