For review:

The Memory Cage by Ruth Eastham - Scholastic
This sounds like it might be pretty good, though I'm wary. It sounds quite young for one, and the subject is a little close to home, so it might be a difficult read. One for the 2011 Debut Author Challenge.

The Cursed Ones by Nancy Holder & Debbie Viguié - S&S

This book sounds really good, but I'm half wary. I loved reading the authors' Witch & Curse omnibus, but when I got to the second one, I didn't get very far before I put it down. I may not have been in the mood for it, and that was all, but it just felt like too much at the time. I'm just a little worried that this book might be a little too heavy too. But it is vampires, and the premise sounds incredible!

My Soul to Save by Rachel Vincent - Mira Ink

I now have a lovely UK edition! Oh, how I love these covers! I have read this book already, it was amazing, and you can check out my review here.

Not too bad, huh?
