Book Haul


Leap of Faith by Jamie Blair

Two Lies and a Spy by Kat Carlton

Banish by Nicola Marsh

The Bone Season by Samantha Shannon

Hi guys!

It was a quiet week for me in terms of books, but I got some awesome reads that I'm looking forward to.

I got Leap of Faith from S&S and I enjoyed it very much except for the open ending. Two Spies and a Spy was another I got from S&S and it looks really good as well. I love a good YA spy book, so I'm excited.

I won Banish from Obsession With Books! This is probably the second or third book I won in a giveaway!

I wasn't going to even look at The Bone Season because the series is 7 books long and I thought it would frustrate me, but the reviews from my blogger friends have been positive, so I had to give in to the peer pressure and get a copy.

Thank you to Simon & Schuster, Edelweiss and Sharon for the books!

Weekly Recap

Here's what was on the blog this week :
This was a DNF for me. I was so bored with the book and I had a hard time connecting with the characters.
 
This was a quirky book, but in the end it was mediocre. I rated it 2 stars.
 
This was a great sequel to Gravity. The only thing I didn't enjoy much was the killer ending. I rated it 4 stars.

Review : Inspire by Heather Buchine
I was conflicted when it came to this book. Parts of it I enjoyed, but it also had cheating in it which I disapproved of. I rated it 3 stars.

Review : Dangerous Girls by Abigail Haas
This was a wonderful YA mystery book that had me guessing until the very end. One of the best YA mysteries I've read! I rated it 4 stars.
 

That's it for me this week! I hope you guys had a fabulous week as well!
Hope you have a great weekend!

Don't forget to leave links to your Book Hauls for me to visit you as well!

Happy Reading!

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
