Towards the last week of May, I entered the Twitter giveaway of Ms. Johanna
Castillo (Colleen’s editor) for the ARC of Ugly Love. It was a simple contest
wherein I have to retweet a tweet of hers and then I’ll be entered into the giveaway.
I gave it shot and only to find out a few days after that I won the contest! WOOT WOOT!
MY
GOODNESS! I’ll get to read UGLY LOVE months/days before the release? Holy shit,
yes! I was ecstatic. From that day on, I was in contact with Ms. Johanna for the
updates of the whereabouts of my galley.
The
month of June entered and it’s still a no show on my doorstep. *messages Ms.
Johanna*
I
was getting really worried that it got stuck somewhere and I won’t be able to
have it in my hands. I was shitless scared for it was the first time I won
something (IT’S A BOOK THAT I’M EAGERLY
ANTICIPATING) and I’d probably end up not being able to receive it. That sucks,
right?
Then
entered the first week of July, still a no show. *wrings my hands*
July
21 came in.
And to my surprise, there
was a package waiting for me!!!
I
was praying to all the Saints for the package to contain the ARC already! Phew, please! I slowly
opened it and took a deep breath before I checked the content … AND TADA!!!! Rejoice! Squeals were heard. I was happy dancing around the house. Even my fangirl heart is tapping away inside of my body!
I CAN'T EVEN DFHASJFIOAS!!! MY CoHo fangirl heart cannot contain all the feels when I saw this baby! |
Ugly Love is one of those books that you wouldn't want to pass up! I tell you, when you see it in your local bookstores on August 5th, you should:
1. GRAB A HOLD OF IT
2. HEAD OVER TO THE COUNTER
3. PAY FOR IT
4. MAKE A STOP OVER AND BUY LOTS OF TISSUES!!!
5. LOCK YOURSELF UP IN YOUR ROOM
6. LET COLLEEN HOOVER AND UGLY LOVE CONSUME YOU.
Allow it to take you on SMOKIN' HOT, EMOTIONAL AND GRIPPING JOURNEY OF TWO CHARACTERS AND A PAST THAT THEY MUST FACE AND OVERCOME FOR THE BEAUTIFUL AND WORTHY SIDE OF LOVE TO PREVAIL.
I'll post my FULL review for UGLY LOVE probably over the weekend or on Monday, August 4. Ha! I'm gonna read it again before I fully craft my review. I just can't get enough of it. :)
PS. We still don't have electricity. They're saying that it'll be by September 30 that they'll be able to restore it. I CRY.
Ahh, that would be so nerve-wracking!! So glad it finally came, though! I just found out about this coming out like, a week ago and I'm so excited now! It sounds amazing! I want it! Why isn't it August 5 yet?
