BOUGHT


Divergent  Bite Club: The Morganville Vampires  The Adoration of Jenna Fox

Divergent by Veronica Roth
It was a complete surprise when I got this in the mail, it's not meant to be out until May 3rd so when I got it early from Amazon, I was extremely excited! Read it in two days, it's awesome! It is so good, you really have to read it!

Bite Club by Rachel Caine
Again, I was surprised when this came because it's also not meant to be out until May 3rd... Amazon have been sending things out early! Oh well, I'm not complaining :) I'll be reading this as soon as I finish The Girl in the Steel Corset, can't wait, The Morganville Vampires series is one of my favourites and this is book 10! :)


The Adoration of Jenna Fox by Mary E Pearson
I bought this one because it was £0.89 for Kindle, and I've heard good things about it :) Can't wait to read it, especially as it's dystopian!


FOR REVIEW


The Day Before  Spellbound


The Day Before by Lisa Schroeder
I'm really excited for this one, as it's written like poems, and I love Ellen Hopkins' books which are also written like that, so I hope this is too! Thanks to Simon and Schuster Galley Grab for this! 


Spellbound by Cara Lynn Schultz
I'm so excited for this one, it looks amazing, and that cover is gorgeous! Thanks to NetGalley for this one :)

    The Adoration of Jenna Fox was pretty good, and the best thing is, there's sequel/companion of sorts in the offing, too.

    A lot of people seem to be getting Divergent early. I'm so jealous! It needs to be payday soon so I can go buy a copy as soon as it's released. I'm glad you liked it!

    Oooh, I've been wanting to read Divergent, so I can't wait to see what you think of that.

    The Adoration of Jenna Fox is very good so far, I really need to finish it.

    Ooooh 'Divergent' ... I'm not sure how but I'm holding off on reading it for now. I have one more book I want to read and then it is all mine. I'm definitely super excited for it since everyone says it's so good.

    'The Adoration of Jenna Fox' is definitely an interesting book. Can't wait to hear your thoughts!

    So jealous of Spellbound! I'm halfway through with Divergent and am loving every second. My friend just read The Adoration and enjoyed it very much. Happy reading!

    I got SPELLBOUND as well! And yet, you are another blogger who happens to have DIVERGENT. And now I'm craving to have it. Please enjoy it, for the both of us and for fellow bloggers who are in the same predicament as I am everywhere...

    I really liked THE ADORATION OF JENNA FOX, broke out the Kleenex and everything. I hope you like it too! And I have to find out what all the hype is surrounding the Morganville vampire series. They really that good?

    Anyway, thanks for stopping by the blog yesterday! And enjoy!

    Spellbound looks AMAZING :). I want to get it!/will probably be reading your review.

    And you're so lucky Amazon shipped Divergent early! I think mine's coming tomorrow, but I've heard such great things and want to read it now :D. Amazon is awesome when it does that. It happened with me and The Vespertine, and what can I say? An unexpected package in the mail can really brighten our days :).

    Also, I'm not sure I like the UK cover of the Adoration of Jenna Fox. The US one, or at least the one I've seen the most often, seems a lot more intriguing than this eye-focused one. Have you seen the other one? What do you think of it?

    Looks like you've got an awesome week ahead of you! Happy reading!!
