Hi guys!

I hope you had a wonderful week! Can you believe that June is nearly over already? Time sure flies really fast these days!

I got some pretty fabulous books this week. From Sourcebooks I got a copy of Truly, Madly, Deadly and from Avon I got Crave! I loved Monica Murphy's Drew+Fable series, so I was excited to read her new adult series. I read the book last night and it was HOT!

I also decided to stop being lazy and actually went out to the library! I got copies of Prodigy, Breaking Point, The Darkest Minds, Shadowlands and The 5th Wave (Are you happy, Kim?). These are all books that I've been waiting to read for a very long time now, so I'm glad I found them.

Since I successfully completed my freshman year of college, I decided to treat myself with books! I mean what better way to treat myself? I bought copies of The Moon and More, When You Were Here and Hate List! I'm currently in love with YA contemporaries, so I decided to get some amazing looking contemporaries. I specifically got Hate List because of Jenni at Alluring Reads and Melissa and I Swim For Oceans! Jenni and I share similar tastes in books and she loves all things Jennifer Brown, so I knew I would love this one. I only recently started interacting with Melissa, but she's fabulous and she and I seem to love the same kinds of books. So, thank you, ladies!

I still have some money left over from the gift I decided to give myself, but I'm keeping it for next week because there are some great looking books coming out!

Thank you to Sourcebooks, Avon, Netgalley and Edelweiss for the review copies!

I had yet another busy week on the blog this week! Here is a recap of what was on the blog :

Blog Tour Stop : Confessions of an Almost Girlfriend by Louise Rozett
I reviewed the 2nd book of the Confessions series! I absolutely loved it and I thought it's a book that everyone should read! I gave it 5 stars!

Blog Tour Stop : Paradox by A.J Paquette
The author stopped by the blog to answer some questions!

Review : Born of Illusion by Teri Brown
I thought this was a great addition to YA historical. I gave it 4 stars.

Review : In the After by Demitria Lunetta
I loved the first half of this book a lot more than the 2nd half. I ended up giving it 3 stars.

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
