For review:

Saving Daisy by Phil Earle
Hollow Pike by James Dawson (ARC) - 2012 Debut
If I Die by Rachel Vincent
Fallen in Love by Lauren Kate
Under the Never Sky by Veronica Rossi - 2012 Debut

Bought:

Writers' & Artists' Yearbook 2012 - I hope to get a job in publishing, I thought the contacts in this book might give more places to look.
How to Get a Job in Publishing by Alison Baversock, Susannah Bowen and Steve Carey - this was recommended to me by Stacey of Pretty Books who found it extremely helpful in getting her job.
Swag:

I received a fair few bookmarks from author Jeri Smith-Read - who writens the Shade series, as well as several adult urban fantasy series - which I love! She also included two bookmarks from adult urban fantasy author, Adrian Phoenix. I hadn't heard of her before, I'll have to check her out.

    Oh gosh. Under the Never Sky. I LOVE THAT BOOK!!!! Amazing! I really hope you'll enjoy it. Oooh and I'm super intrigued by Hollow Pike! And Fallen in Love because Arriane is one of my favourite characters in the series - actually I prefer all the secondary characters to Luce and Daniel haha. So I can't wait to read their stories.

    Awesome swag too! Happy reading :)

    Great set! I wish I'd tried to get a job in publishing when I was younger. It would have been a fun way to start out a career.
