Hi guys!

I hope all you Americans had a great 4th of July! And all you non-Americans had a fabulous week too. I had a great week in books this last week. I got some books that I've been wanting to read for a long time now.

I've seen so many raving reviews for How to Love that I decided to download a copy from Edelweiss. Tandem is one of those books I want to read just for the cover. And A Tale of Two Centuries is a book I've been dying to read! I loved the first book in the series and couldn't wait for this companion novel to come out. I'm currently reading it and it's a lot fun!

I also bought copies of The Distance Between Us, which ended up being a super cute book, Killing Sarai, which I loved and Camp Boyfriend!

From the library, I got Scent of Magic and Nantucket Blue.
 
I'm super excited to read these pretties! 

Thank you to Edelweiss, NetGalley, Harper Teen, Random House and Entangled Teen for the lovely review copies. 
 
Weekly Recap

This week I participated in the Summer Loving Read-a-Thon! I read 8 books for the read-a-thon and will be starting the 9th and last one tonight. 

I also had some reviews on the blog this week, so here's a recap :

I loved Reasons and I thought it was a really cute read! Unfortunately, Right of Way wasn't the book for me and I ended up giving it 2 stars.
 
This was one creepy book although I pretty much figured out the culprit early on. Still, highly entertaining! I gave it 3 stars! 

I had so much fun reading this one! Not only did it have one funny, snarky heroine, it also had some unique YA paranormal ideas. I gave it 4.5 stars and I highly recommend it!

This is a book that was out of my comfort zone, but I ended up enjoying it so much that I devoured the book in a couple of sittings only. I gave it 4.5 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
