This week I managed to get good lighting, but unfortunately the sound is AWFUL. You can't hear half of it and I'm sorry but I've listed the books below, and you can see them in the video, I guess :) I hope you like it anyway!

    Wow you got loads of fab books! Really jealous of your signed copies of Daughter of Smoke and Bone and The Carrier of the Mark. I just can't believe how huge Angel Fire is! OMG that would completely frighten me away.
