    1. It looks like you have some fun ones -- Killing Me Softly really appeals to me. I love your blog title, by the way!

    1. I am always stuck waiting for books to show up as well. Although now that I have it, I've yet to find the time to read it!

  3. Oh, I still have to read TFIOS and the Girl in the Clockwork Collar! I wonder what you'll think about Pretties. It was my first Biopunk/Dystopian novel ever, I think. :D

    1. I've heard raves and hate for Pretties, so I'm not sure how I'll react to it. I liked Uglies but it didn't blow my mind, so that is more or less what I am expecting from the rest of the series.

  4. Ah, awesome IMM! The Fault In Our Stars is one of my favorites, I'm jealous of you getting Pandemonium (why haven't I bought it yet?!), and The Treasure Map of Boys is really cute. Enjoy!

  5. I am currently reading The Fault in Our Stars - so far it is amazing, now my favourite John Green book.
    I've also read The Knife of Never Letting Go - that series is so good. It's the series that got me into the dystopian genre. Enjoy!

    1. It's the only John Green I've read, but I really loved it. I've also heard great things about The Knife of Never Letting Go -- I'm excited to read more!

  6. I have The Fault in Our Stars sitting on my shelf, but can't seem to make myself read it, lol. I can't wait to start Kady Cross' series. Hope you enjoy Pandemonium as much as I did! Happy reading :-)

    1. Thanks for following! I am so flattered. The Fault in Our Stars is emotionally taxing but worth every tear! I'm looking forward to Pandemonium. :)

  7. You have a ton of great stuff, all of it worthy of mentioning. But WOW The Night Circus audiobook is incredible. I read the book and then listened via audiobook and loved it all over again the second time. And with Jim Dale reading it, you just can't go wrong.

    1. I've heard that about The Night Circus audiobook! While I loved reading it, I think listening may end up being even more enchanting because I'll be able to just close my eyes and be immersed. I can't wait!

  8. The Fault in Our Stars finally came for me from the library too. I started reading it over the weekend, and so far I like it a lot. I hope you do too!

  9. Pandemonium is great! I finished it last week. Ends with another cliffhanger. Lauren Oliver knows how to rip our hearts out. Enjoy your books!
