Editions that I want

 Well, I decided to open a blog to practice my English. 
I think putting my thoughts about my current readings in a blog could help me practice the language. 

So, here we go.

Lately, I'm a big fan of beautiful editions. They're some out there that I have my eyes on. There's one in particular that is out of stock and now some people are selling the editions at ridiculous prices. 

Here are the editions that I want:


1. One Dark Window 
I wanted to buy the book for a long time. I think it was released around November of last year, but I never made up my mind and I postponed the purchase pay period after pay period. Thinking about my "No Buy Ban" (which I still have. I'm planning to not buy any new books until I finish my current TBR). What a shame. Now the edition is out of stock. I think I gave much thought to it and now people are selling the book for around 200 USD in Mercari or Ebay.  

The Barnes and Noble website says that it is "temporarily out of stock". TEM-PO-RA-RY. So let's hope that they sell it again soon on their website. Otherwise, I think I'm going to buy just the regular edition because I have other things to pay for than the overpriced edition. 




2.  Lessons in Chemistry

I think the title was popular about a year ago when the TV Show was jus released but I stopped hearing about Lessons in Chemistry  since the beginning of the year. I was eyeing this special edition that was signed by the author but —again—it's out of stock. But Thriftbooks, Amazon and Barnes and Noble are still selling this special edition. The only thing is that is not signed but still, the edition is pretty and prefer it over the regular version. 




3. Beach Read

I think it's the only one in this list that is not out of stock but here I'm in a clear debate in whether is worth it or not. After reading the summary of the book, I'm pretty sure is going to be a fun read. These two writers who fell in love in a funny way. But I don't know if I'm going to be excited or if is going to be one of those reads that I'm going to re-read over and over again. 

I'm thinking in reading it digitally first and If I'm convinced, I might get it. 



4. ACOTAR - A court of Thorns and Roses 

Uh, funny. ACOTAR is famous around the internet. FAMOUS. HUGE. I see the title at least 1 time everyday when I'm scrolling down social media. And saying 1 time I think is saying little. 
So I'm thinking in start reading this series but they are a few things that I'm not convinced yet:

  1. So it seems there is a recommended order to read the books. Because Sarah J. Mass has connected all her books. 
  2. The regular version of the books does not convince me. 
  3. I have read mixed reviews about it and I'm not sure if I'm going to like it. 
In that matter, I'm debating if the special edition is going to worth the money. 




What do you think? Do you have one of these editions?
