I was going to be all pretty and get book covers and summaries, and then I had a crazy week and ended up with 19 books this week (which is a lot for me!)! So you'll just have to be happy with titles and links. Here's what I got:
In the Mail:
Herbert's Wormhole by Peter Nelson and Rohitash Rao (I got this from HarperChildren's First Look-yay!)
Water Steps by A. LaFaye-I got a review copy of this one earlier, but the wonderful people at Mikweed sent me a finished copy of the book-thanks!
Suddenly Supernatural: Scardey Cat by Elizabeth Cody Kimmel-School Spirit, the first in this series, was one of the first books I reviewed for TeensReadToo.com!
The ABC's of Kissing Boys by Tina Ferraro
The Diamonds by Ted Michael
Highway to Hell (Maggie Quinn) by Rosemary Clement Moore
-These all came from the publisher for review. I haven't read any of the other Maggie Quinn books-do I need to read them in order?
The Truth About Forever, Just Listen, This Lullaby by Sarah Dessen-I won these from Elizabeth Scott's Something Maybe Countdown. Thanks Elizabeth!
The Ones I Bought:
Dust of 100 Dogs by A.S. King-I ordered it off Amazon and it arrived this week. I can't wait to read it!
Something, Maybe by Elizabeth Scott-I can't wait to read this one!
If I Stay by Gayle Forman-I was thrilled when my Borders had this one in early!
Milkrun by Sarah Mlynowski-this is one of her adult titles, but I've seen it popping up with a new cover in YA. I found it at my local used book store.
Cosmo Bedside Quiz Book-Oops, how did that get in there?:) Another local bookstore find that was too fun to pass up for a girls night out!
From the Library:
Amarenth Enchantment by Julie Berry-Our library copies of this one came in faster than I expected so I did a happy dance when this came across my desk.
The Elite by Jennifer Banash-Yes, I will finally catch up with you all and read this!
Save the Date by Tamara Summers-A random library find, but with my upcoming wedding, I thought a wedding book would be fun.
Natural Born Charmer by Susan Elizabeth Phillips-I've heard from several people that SEP is hilarious, so I'm giving her books a try. (Not YA though)
Dogs and Goddessess by Jennifer Crusie, Anne Stewart, Lani Diane Rich-for book club...yep, my book club rocks!
