Book Haul - August 1st, 2011

Since I now own a Kobo, I figured I would buy some eBooks for it. Also, Kobo had emailed me a couple of promo codes to use which gave me around 10% off each purchase.

The good and bad side of Kobo is you can only purchase one eBook at a time (since they don't have a shopping cart on the website).
Also, because I live in Canada, some eBooks aren't available to me (at least not on the Kobo website). Luckily, I downloaded Adobe Digital Editions which allows you to add eBooks from other sites to the Kobo.

Lost Voices by Sarah Potter
Honestly, the cover alone made me want to check this one out. It is so pretty plus the book itself is about mermaids, which always interests me.

Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children by Ransom Riggs
I really wasn't sure what this one was about until I saw a review from ChapterChicks about it. The actual book itself contains pictures used within the story so I am not sure if those are included in the eBook version or not.

The Body Finder by Kimberly Derting
I had never heard of this until I saw a Mailbox video from ChapterChicks. The plot of the book sounded really interesting so I figured I would check it out.

I still have $10 in Borders Bucks to use from Borders but since it doesn't apply to eBooks, I will probably end up getting a regular book sent. I normally get free shipping but for some reason, it wasn't working for me earlier.
