I have Chime in my TBR pile. Can't wait to get to it.
ReplyDeleteThe Dark Fever series is quite entertaining. I have Chime and I've heard SO MANY good reviews that I am almost afraid to read it, just in case I don't like it. Hehe. I hope you enjoy your books.
ReplyDeleteOh you're so lucky to have the second book of The Personal Demons series !! I hope you'll love it!!
ReplyDeleteOMG, you've bought Darkfever : the first book is good but the series is GREAT! I'm sure you'll love it !! Happy reading Alison !
Great books! =)
ReplyDeleteHave great fun reading them all!
Great mailbox! Instructions for a Broken Heart and Chime have both been catching my eye. The Fever series MUST be good, because it seems like everyone's always talking about it. Anyway, hope you enjoy your books. :)
ReplyDeleteGreat books this week! I heard the Fever series ends on big cliffhangers, so you might want to bring more than one book with you :)
ReplyDeleteChime looks great so I'll be looking forward to seeing your review for it. Happy reading! :)
ReplyDeleteYou are so in for a ride with the Fever series: this is by far one of Monig's best written works.
ReplyDeleteJump on the wagon and remember to turn on the light coz you'll be reading into the wee hours of the morning!
PS great books in the IMM and can't wait to watch the WEDDING of Will & Kate. There's a special NBC Dateline tonight on Kate. Oh yes I'll be watching that!

I can't wait for the royal wedding either. I feel a little silly admitting that, but seriously I can't wait.
ReplyDeleteWow, so many great books!! Enjoy watching the wedding! :)
ReplyDeleteCongrats! I can't wait for the wedding! I'm putting a list of princess books on my blog in honor of the wedding (Princess Diaries, the Princess Plot, Royally Jacked, A Royal Match, etc.) about girls who find out they're princesses/fall in love with princes. Ooooo can't wait for Original Sin to come out!
