Hi everyone!

Look at that! We survived the end of the world!
Last week I went a little crazy on Edelweiss and requested most of their Harper Teen titles. These are books that I've been dying to read ever since I saw their covers. I've already read Through the Ever Night, which was amazing and Prophecy which was not so amazing. I also got Going Vintage from Bloomsbury USA. I love the cover of that book and I'm excited to read it. I learned that Hopeless released early so I knew I had to get my own copy because I adore Colleen. I bought a copy of Shadows after reading Jasprit's @ The Reader's Den amazing review.

I want to say a big thank you to Harper Teen, Bloomsbury USA, Edelweiss and NetGalley for the awesome review copies! 

Weekly Recap 

I didn't have a big week of reviews this week although I've been reading a lot lately. Here's a recap of what was on the blog this week.

This is a new adult contemporary book that I highly enjoyed. I decided to read this book after reading some really positive reviews on Goodreads. I was pleasantly surprised by how much I enjoyed it.
If you're looking for a sweet romance book, this is perfect for you.

I chose Dark Triumph, the sequel to Grave Mercy, this week for my WoW. I loved Grave Mercy, so I'm pretty excited for it's release. Plus, it's Sybella's story and I'm very much intrigued by her character. I have no doubt that this will be a great read! If you haven't read Grave Mercy, then you're missing out!

As part of the Fang Girl Book Blitz, I shared an interview with Helen Keeble. Fang Girl was a super funny read and if you're looking for something light and hilarious, this is the perfect book for you!
Be sure to check out the interview with Helen!

The cover of Wrecked, the third book in the Clayton Falls series, was revealed on my blog on Friday. If you haven't seen the cover yet, don't forget to check it out!

Review : Toxic by Jus Accardo
I posted my review for Toxic on Saturday. I loved the first book Touch and I had high hopes for Toxic, so I'm happy to say that Toxic lived up to my expectations. If you haven't started this series yet, you totally should because Dez is kick-ass and Kale is sweet-heart!

In My Mailbox is a weekly meme hosted by Kristi at The Story Siren . Touch (Denazen #1) by Jus Accorda Summary (from Goodreads) When a strange boy tumbles down a river embankment and lands at her feet, seventeen-year-old adrenaline junkie Deznee Cross snatches the opportunity to piss off her father by bringing the mysterious hottie with ice blue eyes home. Except there’s something off with Kale. He wears her shoes in the shower, is overly fascinated with things like DVDs and vases, and acts like she’ll turn to dust if he touches her. It’s not until Dez’s father shows up, wielding a gun and knowing more about Kale than he should, that Dez realizes there’s more to this boy—and her father’s “law firm”—than she realized. Kale has been a prisoner of Denazen Corporation—an organization devoted to collecting “special” kids known as Sixes and using them as weapons—his entire life. And, oh yeah, his touch? It kills. The two team up with a group of rogue Sixes hellbent on taking dow
