Anonymous said...: Such awesome books. Though I haven't begun the Valente series, I'm totally looking forward to them and the third book looks as amazing as all the rest. As always, I hope you enjoy them books.; June 29, 2013 at 1:19 AM
Amber (Books of Amber) said...: You and Tatum are making me want to read The Girl Who... series. I NEED to read it right now. I will get to it soon, I hope.

Ooooh, Boxers and Saints sound great too. I've been really getting into graphic novels lately. Well, I've been wanting to buy a lot of graphic novels, but I haven't had much money before now so I've had to wait :D; June 29, 2013 at 4:47 AM
Amy said...: Awww I hate allergies!! Hope they go away quick!! Boxers and Saints both look good. I am really bad with direction when I am looking at the screen too lol!! I'm always on the opposite side or something. I haven't read the second book in the Razorland series, but I really did want to. Though, after the direction I heard it went maybe I'm glad that I didn't. I think the romance would make me sick. Anyways, great haul babe!! Enjoy!; June 29, 2013 at 9:37 AM
kara-karina@Nocturnal Book Reviews said...: Ah, Catherine M.Valente's writing is absolutely glorious! I adore her although I only read Deathless. Also interesting graphic novels, Christina! I'll be looking forward to your reviews. Enjoy all and hope your allergy goes away soon!; June 29, 2013 at 7:19 PM
Unknown said...: I also need to catch up on the Razorland series! Those aren't my favorite but they're good enough. I cannot WAIT for the new Fairyland book... if you loved the first one I think you'll love the 2nd even more. I know I did at least. :); June 29, 2013 at 9:03 PM
Gretchen H. said...: Jealous about the Valente book! I got to meet her and I have a signed #1, but I still haven't read it. I'm making m book club read it later this month!

Unknown said...: *looks at copy of Enclave she bought two years ago* I so need to start reading this series, since I've seen such vastly different opinions on it from various people!

Christina said...: Ahhhhh, you will love them. I'm pretty certain in this case. I WILL enjoy them books. I think.; July 1, 2013 at 9:14 AM
Christina said...: DO IT. SO PRETTY.

I hope they're awesome. I love graphic novels, but they're expensive like whoa, and I don't want to spend money on something I don't already know I'll love at that much expense. I get why they're more expensive, but I can't.; July 1, 2013 at 9:17 AM
Christina said...: Ugh, me too. They're pretty persisten. *sighs* They look awesome. I probably won't be reading them until August or September, but I'm excited. I'm afraid I won't like the Razorland books anymore either, but I hope to be the variant opinion on book two. Or something.; July 1, 2013 at 9:23 AM
Christina said...: Valente's writing made me seriously happy. I wish I could write like that. *admires* Deathless is on my list to read also.; July 1, 2013 at 9:24 AM
Christina said...: Yeah, I LOVED Enclave when I read it, but I was also pretty new to dystopian fiction, so...who knows what will happen this time.; July 1, 2013 at 9:29 AM
Christina said...: That's awesome! Also, nice use of book club!; July 1, 2013 at 9:30 AM
Christina said...: Yeah, I'm going to be rereading Enclave, since I hardly remember it. We'll see how this goes, since I am such a different reader now than I was then.; July 1, 2013 at 9:34 AM
Judith said...: I've been wanting to read the Fairyland series FOREVER. The covers are prettyyyyy and I've heard amazing things about them. Might be time I order the first one :) I also think the Boxers/Saints concept is so interesting. Hope they're good!; July 1, 2013 at 2:32 PM
Christina said...: The first one was so awesome, and I've heard it gets better! Weeeeeeee. Also, yes, excited for the graphic novel too!; July 2, 2013 at 11:07 AM
Heidi said...: YES to everything you had to say about Cat Valente's Fairyland. Love those books so much. I hadn't even heard of The Path of Names, but it does sound like a decent MG. I agree The Boy on the Bridge cover is terrible, but hopefully the book is better!; July 5, 2013 at 11:34 AM
Micheline said...: OMG You got Fairyland #3!! I *just* featured that on my WoW last week (I think?) - even though I still need to read # 2 first. I couldn't agree more with you on EVERYTHING you said about Fairyland and Catherynne M. Valente's writing ♥ I've read Gene Luen Yang before but it was the Avatar: the Last Airbender manga...loved it though! Oh and I still need to read the Razorland series but I'm kind of scared too since I heard one of the love-interests is beyond questionable o_O Anyways sweet haul, enjoy!; July 16, 2013 at 11:26 AM
