For review:

Darkest Mercy by Melissa Marr - HarperCollins
I am a pretty happy girl! I absolutely loved the first two books in this series, but wasn't a big fan of Fragile Eternity. Because of that, I haven't yet read Radiant Shadows, but now I have Darkest Mercy, I can give both a go. I really want to love how this series ends!

Jenna & Jonah's Fauxmance by Emily Franklin & Brendan Halpin - Bloomsbury
Truthfully? It was the cover that immediately want to read this book. I'm not exactly big on the whole popular thing, but once these two get away, I think this could be a really good book! I'm looking forward to it.

Where She Went by Gayle Forman - Random House
Yes, I have already been sent a manuscript copy, so no idea why I have now been sent a finished copy, but I'm not complaining! Looking forward to reading it!

Divergent by Veronica Roth - HarperCollins
I am so intrigued by this book! And due to having read a fair few dystopians that I've loved now, despite always being wary, I decided to bite the bullet and give it a go. One for the 2012 Debut Author Challenge.

Bought:

Twice Bitten by Chloe Neill
This is an adult urban fantasy I will review on Ink and Paper. I love this series! The first two novels were fantastic, so I'm really looking forward to reading this one!

This Side of the Grave by Jeaniene Frost
This is an adult urban fantasy I will review on Ink and Paper. EXCITEMENT! I absolutely love this series, so I am just SO happy to have my copy now! I have already started reading! Looove!

Yup, I'm a happy girl! :)
