I'm on holiday right now with lots of family so it's difficult to get time to myself, so I probably won't be writing any reviews until I get back home. So I've got a Top Ten Tuesday for you to today! TOP TEN BOOKS SET IN BOARDING SCHOOLS Today's topic was 'Books Set In X' so I chose boarding schools because boarding schools are awesome. I love the drama and relationships that take place between teenagers living together 24/7, without parental supervision... Great fun! Here are my top ten picks: Harry Potter by JK Rowling - Obviously. Anna and the French Kiss by Stephanie Perkins - I reread this yesterday and oh my goodness I'd forgotten how perfect it is. I want to go to boarding school in France! Shades of London by Maureen Johnson - These books are great, set in a boarding school in London. Can't wait for the next one! Hex Hall by Rachel Hawkins - These books are such good reads! Funny too. I love them. Night School by CJ Daugh...

Girl of Nightmares by Kendare Blake 3. All Our Yesterdays by Cristin Terrill 4. Vivian Versus the Apocalypse by Katie Coyle 5. The Rig by Joe Ducie I've had Anna Dressed In Blood for so long and I've only ever heard good things, so I thought it was about time I read it!

All Our Yesterdays was really, really good, and hopefully I'll get my review of that up soon. I absolutely loved Vivian Versus the Apocalypse , which was...

Hey everyone! Today I have an excerpt from Spy Society by Robin Benway for you to read, which is publishing tomorrow by Simon and Schuster in the UK. Hope you enjoy! It's a really great book. __________ Being a 16-year-old safecracker and active-duty daughter of international spies has its moments, good and bad. Pros: Seeing the world one crime-solving adventure at a time. Having parents with super cool jobs. Cons: Never staying in one place long enough to have friends or a boyfriend.

Hey! I've been a rubbish blogger lately, despite saying that I wouldn't be once exams are over... Anyway, I feel like I've kind of lost my 'blogging mojo', so hopefully this will get me all excited for blogging again! The 15 Day Book Blogger Challenge is hosted by April over at Good Books and Good Wine  so if you wanted to find out a little bit more or take part yourself, head on over there. So today's challenge is Make 15 book related confessions , so here goes! 1. I'm scared of big books. Well. Not scared exactly, but the number of pages a book has definitely has an influence on whether or not I choose it to read next. Books over 500 pages take me a long time to read and I'm impatient, so I like to read things quickly, and with big books I can't do that. I will read them, it'll just take me a while to get round to reading them. 2. I don't lend books. I like to keep my books in perfect condition, and I can't trust people...
