The Postman Knock #37
Still enjoying the sunshine, ladies and fellas. Wishing you the same! And how are you, me dears?
I had a fab reading week.
I've READ:
THE HALLOWED ONES was fantastic! I find that I really like Laura Bickle's no-nonsense sensible characters be that adult or YA fiction. It's a short read, and I gobbled it up in just a couple of hours. THE ENEMY INSIDE was pretty good too, but I felt that characters were not developed properly, and the quality of the book somewhat suffered. At last, THE GHOST BRIDE was an unexpectedly delightful surprise! I was expecting historical murder mystery but what I got was a cool version of Spirited Away with a spunky ghostly main heroine. Loved it!
NETGALLEY/EDELWEISS:
I am extremely excited about all of these titles, especially On Midnight Wings!
FOR REVIEW:
An unsolicited copy courtesy of Penguin. It's huge and I don't know when I read it, but I'll try my best. Thank you!
KINDLE FREEBIE:
This series came recommended to me, and I'm glad I'll be able to try it now.
LIBRARY:
I've started on the waiting list for Dead Ever After as number 18 in my library before the book was released. At last it's my turn now! :)
This is it. Listen to some nice music and happy Sunday!
P.S. Has anyone watched Hemlock Grove? It's amazing!
You already got My Lady Quicksilver? I am jealous! :-) Can't wait to hear your thoughts.
ReplyDeleteNice haul this week!
I also loved the hallowed ones, it was a great book. Happy reading!
ReplyDeleteOh, I love Laura Bickle's books...she does not get enough exposure on the blogosphere!
ReplyDeleteIs the Hoffman part of a series? Cos I have seen book 1 and2 around
ReplyDeleteVika, I saw it couple of days ago and requested straight away. Can't wait! :)
ReplyDeleteD., I just like how her main heroines are always practical and resourceful without all that drama. I find it really appealing. Can't wait to read The Outside!
Mel, no, she doesn't! And it's a shame :(
Blodeuedd, it is the third book in the series.
The Hallowed Ones is great, I loved that book! Can't wait for the next one.
