Although I have high hopes that I'll enjoy Dark Triumph even more than Grave Mercy.<br />And I'm definitely the same way with not requesting books I really, really want to read. <br />Thanks, Danielle!Amandahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03052456915027241479noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4160066904665347291.post-81942356187445883382014-08-05T11:48:59.830-05:002014-08-05T11:48:59.830-05:00Hopefully I'll actually start reading these an...Hopefully I'll actually start reading these and posting reviews again in the near future!<br />I did just finish Lies We Tell Ourselves - it's fantastic. Seriously, one of the best books I've read so far this year. I'm going to try to have my review posted soon to help spread awareness, but definitely push this one towards the top of your TBR list. :)<br />I hope to get to both Salt & Storm and The Cure for Dreaming this month. We'll see. <br />And I've heard a lot of people saying that about Ruin and Rising. I'm not really like that with my series, because I'm always in a panicked SO MANY BOOKS, SO LITTLE TIME mood, but I did end up reading it a bit more slowly than usual. It is sad it's over, but at least more books will take place in that world!Amandahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03052456915027241479noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4160066904665347291.post-89414122740554409222014-08-05T11:46:08.842-05:002014-08-05T11:46:08.842-05:00Thanks, Cort! :)

Just because.<br />Yup, definitely got some books I'm super excited to read.

I've seen that happen with Canadian-based sites. <br />I'm excited to give the Amour et Chocolat series another try - think I'm going to wait until I go to a friend's wedding at the end of the month so I'll be in a romantic sort of mood. <br />Thanks, Lauren!Amandahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03052456915027241479noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4160066904665347291.post-37516110746121725832014-08-05T11:41:13.365-05:002014-08-05T11:41:13.365-05:00Yay!

We'll have to exchange thoughts once we both get around to reading The Cure for Dreaming. :)<br />I know it was difficult to let go of the Grisha series. But I enjoyed it and am happy with it overall. I hope you are as well once you finally read it, Bonnie!Amandahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03052456915027241479noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4160066904665347291.post-68794461899056989322014-07-21T23:31:20.249-05:002014-07-21T23:31:20.249-05:00Grave Mercy and Prisoner of Night and Fog are amaz...Grave Mercy and Prisoner of Night and Fog are amazing! I hope you enjoy them! I am really looking forward to The Cure for Dreaming as well - I wanted to request it on NG but then figured I'd just buy it when it comes out. :P Great haul and happy reading!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06307895303115762938noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4160066904665347291.post-21097749748296683282014-07-21T12:46:41.480-05:002014-07-21T12:46:41.480-05:00Ooh great haul!

Of these, I've only read Grave Mercy and I am interested in the rest of them, so I'm curious to hear what you think. <br /><br />Lies We Tell Ourselves - I only heard about this one a few weeks ago, but I was instantly intrigued because I have not read anything at all like it. I do agree with you though that it sounds like a lot to take on so hopefully the author can manage it. I will be very impressed with them if they do!<br /><br />Salt & Storm - I also got this one for review and aahh can't wait for it! I mean, I have already read some not so positive early reviews for it, but I'm trying not to let that affect me because I really want to like it!<br /><br />The Cure for Dreaming - STILL need to read In The Shadow of Blackbirds after everyone raved about it last year.<br /><br />Ruin and Rising - lucky you with your beauteous signed copy!! I have been putting off reading it as well actually... I will also be sad to say goodbye to the series!Ayleehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07639250102446794830noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4160066904665347291.post-34578930312783448192014-07-11T14:52:33.749-05:002014-07-11T14:52:33.749-05:00Gahhhh congrats on getting approved for all of tho...Gahhhh congrats on getting approved for all of those books! I hope you enjoy them all! I'm so excited to get my hands on The Cure for Dreaming, and I might just have to preorder that one and make an exception to my no buying books because of the house rule. I mean, it's Cat Winters and I loved her first book! Also, I can't wait to read Salt & Storm soon! That cover is awesome! And Another Little Piece! Thank you for letting me know about that deal because I have been looking forward to this one. I hope we both love it! And hopefully I'll read To All the Boys I've Loved Before soon, as it's waiting on my Ipad. I look forward to all of your book reviews for these! Well except Grave Mercy, since that one is already up and read. haha Awesome book haul, Manda!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4160066904665347291.post-63143581071101263592014-07-08T13:08:51.263-05:002014-07-08T13:08:51.263-05:00First, I noticed for the first time that your webs...First, I noticed for the first time that your website has UK in it. Are you British? I had NO IDEA. Clearly I'm not going to be solving any Sherlock mysteries with the way I miss details. Anyway, I cannot wait to read SALT & STORM and THE CURE FOR DREAMING too. I need to get onto reading more of that Paris Chocolate series. I loved the first book so much! And YAY for a signed copy of R&R. I hope you loved the book!

I adored In the Shadow of Blackbirds too!<br />Grave Mercy is one of my all-time favorite YA books. Re-reading this before Mortal Heart sounds like an excellent plan. :)<br />A signed copy of Ruin & Rising?? Too awesome. I purchased a Kindle copy so that I'd have it super early but... I haven't read it yet. I'm trying to convince myself the series isn't actually over. haha Happy Reading!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08964968798310433317noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4160066904665347291.post-3330645129417594042014-07-07T11:14:43.994-05:002014-07-07T11:14:43.994-05:00Fantastic haul!

I really enjoyed Another Little Piece along with Florand's work (but I love ALL her books, so... (; ) and loove that signed copy of Ruin & Rising. I'm really looking forward to your thoughts on that one and definitely need to bump Prisoner of Night and Fog up my TBR since I've been hearing only good things about it.
