Exciting book deals:
BFYA-nominated Something Like Normal author Trish Doller’s next contemporary novel ALL THAT WAS LOST, in which 17-year-old Callie, after spending most of her life on the run with the manic depressive-mother who abducted her, is reunited with her father and extended Greek family in Tarpon Springs, Fla., to Victoria Wells-Arms at Bloomsbury USA, for publication in February 2014, by Kate Schafer Testerman at kt literary (World English).
Something Like Normal totally rocked, so needless to say I'm very very excited for Trish Doller's next book!

And a song:



Thank to Jordyn at Ten Cent Notes for hosting All The Books!

ALL The Books


So ever since some drama that happened in late April, I had been hesitant to post any kind of weekly book roundup. Lately I've started to miss it though, so I scoured the interwebz for the perfect one for me, and I've found it: ALL the Books, hosted by Ten Cent Notes.

What I'm reading:

I just started Speechless this morning, but I loved Hannah Harrington's first book, and I have a great feeling about this book. A Game of Thrones is totally not my normal read, but guys my withdrawals of the show were SO INTENSE that I had to start it. Reading it will be a very slow process, but so far I'm enjoying it, even if Jon Snow is only fourteen.

What I hope to get read this week:
Speechless (via Netgalley)
Code Name Verity (via publicist)
Audrey, Wait!
100 pages of Game of Thrones
(Aiming a little high, but why not? I've got nothing going on.)

Books I've gotten lately:

34 Pieces of You 
Confessions of an Angry Girl (Already read, review on the way.)


The Raven Boys
Butter
(Go Netgalley!)


The Forsaken (Review here)
Pushing the Limits (Review and giveaway on the way)


A Monster Calls

Now for a song:
The Lumineers--Slow It Down
