I think I'm going to need another bookcase...

Finally, my ALA books! 

Almost a month to make this post, but hey...it took a damn long time to do! All the ones I picked up at the ALA Conference (did you miss my recap? You can read it here!). These are all ARCs or finished copies which were either picked up, given to me, provided to me at a signing, or purchased.

It's sad I feel the need to state this, but here it goes:
1) I have every intention of reviewing EVERY book here.
2) I will be donating, passing along and/or sharing all these at some point.
3) I did NOT grab everything I saw. Trust me when I say that the ones you see here? I picked up probably double the amount and set them back down.
4) It was made very clear to each publisher that I was a book blogger when I picked these up. My badge declared it, and I told most, if not all, reps I spoke to that I was NOT a librarian. I was expressly given permission to take the book.

While I'm not using the above to deny that this is a lot of books, I do hope you trust I had no malicious intent.

And now, in alphabetical and then a vague attempt at doing them in release order...

These were the signed books, whose authors I luckily got to meet!

Phew! *wipes brow* that was quite a linking frenzy. I'm seriously excited about each one of these, and I really encourage you to click all the titles and check them out on Goodreads. I'll be running giveaways for a lot of them throughout the remainder of the year, so keep checking back!

And now comes the horrifically difficult part of choosing which one to read first. Sigh.
(Suggestions? Tell me!)
