For review:

Heroes of Olympus: The Lost Hero by Rick Riordan - Puffin
I've not yet read the Percy Jackson series, but this book looks pretty awesome! Really excited to read it!

Matched by Ally Condie - Razorbill UK
Extreme excitement over this book! It sounds amazing, and there has been such buzz around it on the blogosphere! Really excited to read it!

Half Brother by Kenneth Oppel - Random House Children's Books
This book sounds pretty intirguing. Not hugely excited, but should be good! :)

Infinite Days by Rebecca Maizel - MacMillan Children's Books
I've not seen brilliant reviews of this book, but I love the sound of it, so I thought I'd give it a go. Sounds pretty cool!

Alpha by Rachel Vincent - Midas PR
The final book! I am extremely excited and far too sad! Can't wait to read it! Will be reviewed on Ink and Paper.

Bought:

Alpha by Rachel Vincent
This book arrived before the review copy. D'oh! Ah well.

Won from Portrait of a Woman and Random House Children's Books:

The Alchemyst, The Magician, The Sorceress and The Necromancer by Michael Scott
This series sounds amazing, so I'm so excited to have won them! Can't wait to read them!

Gifted:

Not book related, by one of my awesome mates Adam bought me the DVD Bruce Springsteen and The E Street Band: London Calling Live in Hyde Park - just because he took a while to get some books I lent him back to me. He is too awesome, and I am excited!

    The Lost Hero!!! Woo hoo! I cannot wait to read it. I have two books to read first (I did promise) but then I am going to read it all in one go. Enjoy!

    BTW, Half Brother sounded amazing when the girls at RH spoke about it at the blogger event so I am sure it will be brilliant.

    I'm looking forward to The Lost Hero, but I think I should read the Percy Jackson series first. I'm going to try! :) Ohh, that's great to hear, thanks for the tip! :)
