B&DERM: Wrap-up #4 and UK Giveaway

Hey! The fourth(ish) week of May is now over and it's time for our fourth wrap-up post for Bella & Daph's Epic Review Month! Hopefully you've managed to make a dent in your TBR pile - a bigger one than I have! :)

What I read:

I've only read one book in the last two weeks - and that was The Gathering Dark by Leigh Bardugo (called Shadow and Bone in the US). I've had my first exams (and they went well, I think) but I've still got revision to do so I probably won't get much else read! But, I have read 60 pages of Fall For Anything by Courtney Summer, which isn't a review book, but shhh ;P

What have you read this week?

Leave a comment below telling us what you read this week and what you thought of it, etc etc! Or, you can write your own wrap-up post and link up in the linky below :)

Written any reviews for books you've read this month?

If you have, link them below! They'll make you eligible for a giveaway ;P A couple sentences on Goodreads or Shelfari or Facebook, or a full review on your blog or wherever is awesome! :) Just remember to link up in the format:

Your name: Book Title

And now for the UK giveaway!
If you've linked up any reviews in the linky above, signed up in the main kick-off post, and you live in the UK, you are eligible for this giveaway! One winner can choose from these prizes:

A signed UK paperback of The Last Echo by Kimberly Derting
A signed UK paperback of The Name of the Star by Maureen Johnson
A UK paperback of Department 19 by Will Hill
A UK paperback of Fever by Lauren Destefano

The prize will (probably) come with an assortment of signed and unsigned swag :)

As I have now run two giveaways - some of these prizes may already have been claimed in the first giveaway. As I have not contacted the winner yet, I do not know which book they would like so these prizes are subject to change (in that one of them may not be available).

I know the prizes aren't great, but it's everything I have to offer! Again, I'm sorry it's not open internationally, but there are and will be international B&DERM giveaways too!
