    1. yayy! Too bad the paperback of the sequel won't be out for a while *cries* that's what happens when you only buy paperbacks :( *sniff sniff*

      Delete

    2. :( I don't really have a preference for any type. Paperback or hardcover or ebook, whatever I feel like at the time...

      Delete

    3. really? haha I'm not the biggest fan of hardcovers because they hurt my wrists when I read, and they're also not as convenient as paperbacks because they take up soo much space on the bookshelves and they can't be put in small purses

      Delete

  9. Lucy: Hourglass was simply amazing. I love this series. Hope you'll love it too!

    Crimso: Hope you'll enjoy the Statistical Probability of Love at First Sight. It was such a cute book! I devoured it.

    Happy Reading!

  18. Hourglass and Hereafter are really good. Finnikin of the Rock is AMAZING. It took me a few tries to get through the beginning of that book, but it was so worth it in the end.

  41. Spartacus NEEDS to be on my TR list. I haven't even heard of it until now!

    Obsidian has been on my nook for a while now. I keep hearing fantastic things about it...I should probably get around to reading it. :)

    Ooh, I Hunt Killers is another book I've had for a while but haven't read yet. I hear it's great!

    I hope both of you enjoy your books & thank you for stopping by!
