News:
It's been a busy but fun week here. Firstly I am organising my first UK ARC tour for Ivy Devlin's Low Red Moon - this is a new young adult paranormal romance and it looks fab, I can't wait for the ARC to arrive so I can read it! If anyone is interested in joining the UK tour you can sign up for it here.
I was also very excited to kick off my new blog feature with a guest post by the fabulous Rachel Caine. Rachel is the first author to take part in my Author's Animal Antics feature and she wrote a fabulous post about her pet iguana's - click here to read it. I have some fantastic authors lined up to take part in the feature so keep an eye out for the posts every Thursday.
Finally we had the first UK YA Blogger Meet Up in London on Saturday. I had a fantastic time and met loads of lovely bloggers. To find out what we all got up to click here

What are you reading?
I really like the Mercy Thompson series by Briggs. I still have to read the newest one Silver Borne, but all the other were very good.
ReplyDeleteMan, I'm so jealous! I want to read that book so bad!
ReplyDeleteYou have some fun looking reads happening! I love that you had a meet up - I am hoping to organize one this fall in Minnesota with another Minnesota blogger. I have to check out your post :)
ReplyDeleteI read your blog post about your meet up with other bloggers - looked like you had a lot of fun. I can see those becoming so much more popular as time goes on.
ReplyDeleteYou had some great reads this week. I read Silver Borne already as I love that series.
Enjoy your reading week!
@ Anna Marie - I really enjoyed book 1 and have the next 2 in my TBR pile so it's good to know the series is good :o) I hope you enjoy Silver Borne
ReplyDelete@ Rowena - which one do you mean - Forget You? If it was that one I just finished reading it & would definitely recommend it :o)
@ Sheila - Good luck organising your meet up! We had such a fab time & I hope you enjoy it as much as we did :o)
@ Stephanie - The meet up was so much fun :o) We definitely want to arrange to have another one soon & I think it will probably become a regular event (I hope so anyway). I really liked Mercy, I have books 2 & 3 in my TBR pile and am looking forward to reading them. Hope you have a fab week
Wow, Forget You and Linger! You have some great books to read this week. I look forward to hearing what you think of them.

Forget you and Linger, WOW! I still have to read Shiver, but I am staying at my sisters house this weekend so I probably will be taking it with me.
ReplyDeleteEnjoy the books you got and have a wonderful week.
@ Christina - I really liked Forget You & I'm enjoying Linger so far, I'd definitley recommend them both :o)
