I have a copy of Moonglass I really want to read soon so I am anxious for your thoughts on that one too:)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07026974627724672435noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4160066904665347291.post-60150576843035458112013-06-04T20:10:00.190-05:002013-06-04T20:10:00.190-05:00Thanks, Asheley!

I do get super excited to receive those library emails that my hold is in.

I do want her to write some more zombie books or something though. <br />I definitely recommend How to Save a Life - I'll need to read another Zarr book soon!<br />As for Unearthly, I will continue with the series, but I'm not sure I can love those books. But that could be the cynic in me wanting to disagree with everyone else. I'll see how the second and third book go!Amandahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03052456915027241479noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4160066904665347291.post-82584083942061780292013-06-03T21:54:37.221-05:002013-06-03T21:54:37.221-05:00Yes, it does get many awesome books. :) And I'...Yes, it does get many awesome books. :) And I'm checking my holds and looking for new ones to place all the time lol. I'd rather do that and save money, even if I do have to wait in the process.

Sharon Shinn's angels are my favorite ever, Shannon! They are pretty Bible-based, but they're so fantastic and nuanced and I'm happy there are other Shinn fans out there! :) My review will be posted later this month. I have conflicting thoughts on it; the review it drafted, but I'll need to re-read and re-write it still.Amandahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03052456915027241479noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4160066904665347291.post-91019793555973810082013-06-03T21:50:40.753-05:002013-06-03T21:50:40.753-05:00Oh, I have many thoughts on all of these and I'...Oh, I have many thoughts on all of these and I'm eager to post my reviews. For the most part I was very happy with the books in this haul, but there are always exceptions.

I feel like she tricked me into reading contemporary, and I loved it. Also been wanting to read some Sara Zarr, and I think when I do How to Save a Life will be my first. There are so many reasons I shouldn't have liked the Unearthly series, but I really did! I was very meh about the last book, but I think that you may be in a better position starting now that the series is complete.Heidihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00416898799044848769noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4160066904665347291.post-61259510761570593632013-06-03T03:25:21.494-05:002013-06-03T03:25:21.494-05:00Wow Amanda your library has so many amazing and ne...Wow Amanda your library has so many amazing and new books in, I wish my library did the same, usually there's a massive waiting list for all the new releases! I really enjoyed Golden and How to Save a Life. I actually need to read Moonglass and more of Courtney Summers books too. I hope you enjoy all your reads! :)Jasprithttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11346050783201302967noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4160066904665347291.post-69670561177010259842013-06-02T17:27:07.578-05:002013-06-02T17:27:07.578-05:00Unearthly is not too bad!

I'm not a particular fan of stories about angels - I love when authors do original things with it, like Laini Taylor or Sharon Shinn or Sara Douglass, but when they stick to the bible-type of angel I get pretty bored. I couldn't even finish <i>Halo</i> by Alexandra Adornetto - though that might have been for several reasons! Looking forward to hearing what you think and if you'd recommend it.Shannon (Giraffe Days)https://www.blogger.com/profile/00873129203015194947noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4160066904665347291.post-31735831782559834562013-06-02T10:33:33.673-05:002013-06-02T10:33:33.673-05:00Golden, How to Save a Life, Cracked Up to Be, and ...Golden, How to Save a Life, Cracked Up to Be, and The Sky is Everywhere are some of my favorites. EVER. I love those books to death and can't wait to see what you think of Moonglass since I'm contemplating picking it up. I wasn't a fan of CP2 or Unearthly, but I'm the minority. Looking forward to your thoughts on these! :)Keertanahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01071392026876644282noreply@blogger.com
