Summary (from Goodreads)   Title : The Weight of Feathers Author : Anna-Marie McLemore Publication Date :  September 15th 2015 Publisher : St. Martin's Press Goodreads - Amazon - Barnes & Noble For twenty years, the Palomas and the Corbeaus have been rivals and enemies, locked in an escalating feud for over a generation. Both families make their living as traveling performers in competing shows—the Palomas swimming in mermaid exhibitions, the Corbeaus, former tightrope walkers, performing in the tallest trees they can find. Lace Paloma may be new to her family’s show, but she knows as well as anyone that the Corbeaus are pure magia negra, black magic from the devil himself.

But when disaster strikes the small town where both families are performing, it’s a Corbeau boy, Cluck, who saves Lace’s life. And his touch immerses her in the world of the Corbeaus, where falling for him ...

Hi everyone! Where on earth is the freaking time flying by? I can't believe we're already in September and are nearing the end of the year. It's crazy how fast time flies!  I'm back in the US now that my summer vacation is finally over. I miss being home and being surrounded by my family. I don't know why, but leaving was very hard for me this time around. My mom had to physically pry me away from my sister so that I could go to my gate. :( My trip back home went smoothly. I was VERY mad about being given a middle seat on my 14 hours flight. I hate sitting in between people on flights, especially long ones because people constantly wake you up when they want to go to the bathroom and I'm always afraid I'll be seated next to someone creepy. So I was upset and wouldn't stop whining about it to my parents on the phone until boarding time. BUT then, the agent at the gate told me I got upgraded to Business class and I was OVER the moon and I about jumped on t...
