    I am SO pumped for Stormdancer. I've requested it from Amazon Vine and am expecting it to come in the mail next week.

    AND YAYYYY GARTH NIX. I wish lots more bloggers would read and review his work, as it's very good.

      Me too. SO PUMPED. I expect the world. Hopefully Kristoff delivers or I may have to do a vlog of my disappointed face.

      I didn't like the one that I read, but I definitely wanted to give Nix another shot.

    I am seriously anxious to read Stormdancer. I mean... *sigh* If that book sucks, I'm going to Australia to shake Jay Kristoff. Andddddd - my internet sucks today. I didn't get to watch. I'm just drooling over the awesomeness you've received. :-)

      No worries! The point is to drool over the books not me anyway, right? Although I know I am pretty gorgeous! LOL.

      I wish I could send my extra copy of Stormdancer to a blogger friend, but I need it to help attract folks to my event. That's good too, but I love you guys!

      I preordered a copy months ago, so no worries from my end. I doubt I'll get through my obligations and WANT TO READ books by the time it releases. :-)

      Oh, and I'm totally here for your gorgeousness! ;-)

    I love that green on the cover of Altered, but unfortunately the only thing I can do when I see men on YA covers is laugh and laugh and laugh.

      Hahaha, SO GLAD I'M NOT THE ONLY ONE! There are so few covers with dudes on them that I don't find to be hysterical.
