On My New Arrivals Shelf (70)

So far as books go, this week I got a shipment of pretties from YA Books Central (which is looking for more reviewers by the way!), which is super exciting, except for the fact that I totally already DNFed one of them. I try to be so careful with my research, but sometimes there's not much out there when I'm digging around.
Oh, also, this week I remembered to give you some Perseus love.

Of Beast and Beauty - Stacey Jay: I really liked Jay's Romeo & Juliet inspired series in spite of myself, so this one which sounds even better ought to be great. Even better, Gillian (Writer of Wrongs) and Lili (Lili's Reflections) said it rocks.

Falcon in the Glass - Susan Fletcher: I don't really know anything about this one, but it's about glassblowing, and set in Venice, which really appealed to me.

Burning - Elana K. Arnold: Jenni (Alluring Reads) told me I HAD to read this, and since we generally agree on contemporaries I am excite!

Dangerous Girls - Abigail Haas: Someone, I think it was Blythe Harris (Finding Bliss in Books) put this on my Sadie Hawkins list, so it's happening! Also, everyone liked this, so even though I'm not huge on mysteries in general, I expect good things!

Waterfell - Amalie Howard: Mermaid books have betrayed me before, but it has to be possible for good ones to exist, right? *crosses fingers and wiggles fins*

Into That Forest - Louis Nowra: I hoped this would be sort of Life of Pi-ish. I was wrong. Super not my writing style. Sad day.

Not a Drop to Drink - Mindy McGinnis: This has been getting mostly great reports, and Ashleigh (Birth of a New Witch) just took the role of black sheep, so this should hopefully be a winner for me!

Once We Were - Kat Zhang: Long-awaited sequel! I really loved the concept and philosophical elements to What's Left of Me.
