The Postman Knock #24

Alright, peeps! How is things with you?

I am still really really busy, but at least I've slept well this week. :)

Still no sign of spring here, and I am certainly fed up with the permanent winter, but at least  managed to have a great book haul this week again!

I'VE READ:

Really excellent reads all round! WOLF NIGHT was giggle worthy, funny and smart read. Don't let the cover put you off. It's excellent. THE QUEEN IS DEAD continued really strong urban fantasy/steampunk of the future series, which I'd recommend to any fan of Patricia Briggs with absolutely no reservations. EMILIE AND THE HOLLOW WORLD was a little bit on the younger side, more middle grade than YA fantasy, but still adventurous and lovely. At last, WICKED AS SHE WANTS I absolutely devoured, it was so delicious. Definitely, a recommended guilty pleasure. Oh my, it was hot! Caspar was something else...

I also want to draw your attention to a thought-provoking post from Karina Cooper on genre wars and somewhat echoing it post from Kimba The Caffeinated Book Reviewer.

EGALLEY:

I can't believe this was on READ NOW on Netgalley!

FOR REVIEW:

I read Throne by Phil Tucker last year and really enjoyed it, so when he asked if I could review his vampire novel, I said yes straight away. Love this striking cover although the typography needs work. Thank you, Phil!

I was dying to read this after a gorgeous first book in the series, Blood Shadows.

BOUGHT:

It actually didn't cost me anything because I applied gift certificate to this. Nevertheless, this is a book I've wanted to read for ages.

Here you go, this is my lot. How was yours?

I will be away for most of May so if anyone: bloggers/authors/readers looking for a guest post, I'll be more than happy to accommodate!

Happy Sunday! Ciao!
