Georgia (georgiiabaker) | 4 comments I was recently at a bootsale and there was a massive book stall so I ended up buying te whole of the morganville vampires series, uglies series, Goddess of Love & Goddess of Legend both by P.C.Cast.
I've only read the P.C.Cast books so far and they were brilliant they are part of Cast's Adult series, which I must say are fantastic I live the writing style, although I was a fan of her house of night books I definitely prefer her adult series!!

I always get jealous of people who get all these books and gift cards to bookstores at Christmas--I never get anything like that!

My hubby's present to me for my birthday every year is he gives me his credit card and turns me loose in a bookstore while he goes shopping at Best Buy or something. The best present ever!

Hazel West | 70 comments I just got to go book shopping with my birthday money and I got to pick up some I've been wanting for a while Princess of the Midnight Ball (Princess #1) by Jessica Day George Entwined by Heather Dixon The Archived (The Archived, #1) by Victoria Schwab and one I got in the bargain section that I haven't read but looks good Foundling (Monster Blood Tattoo, #1) by D.M. Cornish And today I ordered The False Prince (The Ascendance Trilogy, #1) by Jennifer A. Nielsen and Player's Ruse (Knight and Rogue, #3) by Hilari Bell from Amazon, so I'm very excited =D


message 1128: by Heidi (new)

Heidi | 2372 comments Wow Kelly! That is a lot of books! I loved the entire Dairy Queen series btw -- the first book was just ok but they got better and better IMO. I also loved Angelfall, Rot & Ruin, and Cinder -- you've for some good picks there!

p.s. I am a library girl for most of my books but I am addicted to the Kindle deals and have at least 200-300 ebooks sitting that I got as deals but haven't read!


message 1129: by Heather (new)

Heather (hersecretsmile) | 290 comments Oh that's good to know about the Dairy Queen series, Heidi, because I was somewhat disappointed in the first book and have been hesitant to read the rest.

Also thank you Karen! :)


message 1130: by Heidi (new)

Heidi | 2372 comments Heather I actually only started on the rest of the series a year or so after I read the first book because another GR friend was reading the series and loving it. I was not in love with book one - it was just ok for me. Now it is actually one of my favorite YA series - very realistic and funny and DJ is one heck of role model for other young women IMO. I hope you give book two a try and like it.
