FOR REVIEW






Bloodlines by Richelle Mead (UK Paperback) *SQUEEE*
I was SO excited when this arrived, and it was AMAZING! :D I loved it! If you were a little worried that it didn't live up to VA, don't be, because it's awesome... Thanks to Penguin for this one!


Vampire Academy: A Graphic Novel by Richelle Mead, Emma Vieceli and Leigh Dragoon (UK Paperback)
Again, I was so excited for this one too, as it is a graphic novel of the first VA book, and it was awesome! I read it all in one sitting completely by accident - I was only going to read a few pages but I ended up reading it all! Thanks again to Penguin for this one!


GIFTED/WON






Long Lankin by Lindsey Barraclough (UK Proof)
Caroline from Portrait of a Woman sent me this; she had a first come first serve giveaway and I managed to get this :) I've heard lots of good things about it, and it looks awesome, (if a little creepy) so I can't wait to read it! Thanks Caroline!


OTHER







Angel Fire by LA Weatherly Sneak Peak
YAY! I LOVED Angel, the first book, so I was really excited to get this sneak peak! Now I can't wait for Angel Fire even more... And I don't think that sentence makes sense... Oh well, thanks to Usborne for this! :) 


That's all I got this week, what did you guys get? Leave me a link in the comments! :)

    I actually didn't get Bloodlines this week, :(

    I ordered mine, along with the graphic novel and Succubus Revealed from Richelle's store--total impulse buy to pay full price for all 3, but I wanted signed copies badly! So can't wait to read them though! Hoping they come either late this week or next!

    Here's my IMM

    Have a GREAT day!!
