I'm Alison (on the off chance you couldn't guess that from the name of my blog). I review Young Adult novels with a few Middle Grade books and a weekly manga feature.
For Review
Touch of Power by Maria V. Snyder
*Finished this about 20 minutes ago. Loved it! Thanks to Netgalley!
dancergirl by Carol M. Tanzman
*Thanks to Harlequin!
Library Stash
Blood, Bones, and Butter by Gabrielle Hamilton
*I have a weakness for cooking memoirs.
The A Circuit by Catherine Hapka and Georgina Bloomberg
*On the cover, Georgina is listed as first author, but I'm guessing that my order is more appropriate. Still, I think this will be fun, light reading.
Sugar Princess: Skating To Win, Vol. 1 by Hisaya Nakajo
*I don't know what to expect with this, but it looks cute.
In love with Touch of Power.

I can't get past the cover of A Touch of Power. I know some people thing it's great -- but what is that thing she is holding? It just doesn't appeal to me. Although, I like the UK cover. I guess I just need to concentrate on what's inside -- but that's hard for me!
ReplyDeleteOoooh, loved Touch of Power! Wasn't it wonderful. EEP!
ReplyDeleteGreat mailbox this week, hon. :-)
Nice! Touch of Power sounds like it will be good, might have to pick that one up.
ReplyDeleteTouch of Power looks good, I think I saw it on NetGalley. The cover is so pretty!

ReplyDeleteGot some good books there -- and holy cow a lot of comments on this post. What is your secret chick??
ReplyDeleteI liked Dancergirl. It was creepy and something different than I normally read. Love the library! I always try to have a big stack of books from the library. Touch of Power looks really good but I have like 15 Netgalley books I want to finish before I request any more! I need some self-control! Thanks for visiting.

ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by! I have seen Touch of Power a lot lately, hope you enjoy it! Dancergirl sounds really good also.
ReplyDeleteBlood, Bones and Butter looks pretty interesting, in an odd sort of way :) I didn't know there really was such a thing as cooking memoirs - sounds like my two favorite hobbies, eating and reading, combined. I'd love to see you do a review on it!!
ReplyDeleteThanks for visiting me... Have a great week!
