Thanks Carmel!! I'm really excited! Emily, I randomly read a Warriors book (the 4th i believe) when I was student teaching and one of my third graders let me borrow it to read on a field trip and I really liked it! I found all 6 so I snapped them up, only 2 dollars each! I'm excited for Artemis Fowl, it's one of those books that I've always heard about and meant to read but haven't yet. Its the April B.O.M for another group I'm in so I'll be reading it soon:)
I just got
from NetGalley. I can't figure out how to request physical copies, so I guess I'll have to be satisfied with ebooks.
I went to borders, since mine is closing down :( and has everything on sale (50% off as of now) and I bought
. Hope it turns out good.

If you don't already have one, I suggest the Sony Pocket. It is small and lightweight with an e-ink touch screen and works lovely with NetGalley and library ebooks. :)

is an amazing book.
I just got Looking for Alibrandi and The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society from the library today.
Interesting Catie! I skipped it since I heard it was not as good as The Thief. Hmmm. Jessica both books are great!
Heidi - I definitely liked The Queen of Attolia and the rest of the series much more than The Thief. I liked The Thief, but I remember wondering when I finished it what the big deal was. I kept hearing people raving over the series, and I didn't get that passion until I got to the later books and started to feel the same way.

OK ladies I shall give book two a read!
I got
at the thrift store for 52 cents. It should be a quick, light read between all the heavy dystopia and paranormal that I read.
It's been a while since I posted in here, so I have alot.I ordered this in print from Amazon...
I won this from Goodreads...
I got these for my Kindle...
I'm going to Barnes & Noble after work and I'm picking up the following, lmao...
So much for striking on buying books until I have some read... I'm ill.
I'm burning with shame, Heidi... I liken it to a crack addict, lmao... I can't be held responsible for my actions because I'm sick.
I'm really excited to read Fiddlers Gun. It's one of the ones I'm hoping to get to during the Read-A-Thon.

I went to the library to return some books I had finished and picked up
I'm excited to read them all!
Heidi I wrote: "No I didn't notice that! Even more reason for me to check it out when it is released here."That's funny, I just added Graffiti Moon to my TBR list, I didn't even notice that they were the same author.

For almost a year, I'd heard nothing about this one...but since this past fall, this one appears everywhere! I'm glad one of the best out there is finally getting some popularity!
Man, I cannot wait to get my hands on Jellicoe! Wish my library would hurry up; it's been 'on order' for months! *tears at hair*
