  4. I literally just started the series minutes ago. There has been so much talk about it I just have to read it. So many varied opinions, I can't wait to form my own :). I won't be posting a review on here though haha, doesn't really fit into our genre of reviews =P.
    It really is awesome, we have been sharing books for as long as I can remember :)

  6. I loved Ascend, Anna Dressed In Blood, and Hush Hush. I liked the Fifty Shades trilogy as well. I can't believe how famous they are now. Some love and hate it with them but I found them addicting and worth the read. Hope you enjoy everything. Happy reading and thanks for stopping by!

  11. YAY JEN!! I'm so happy to hear that your cold is officially gone -- those terrible thins can drag on forever sometimes LOL x) But you have some amazing books to help cheer you up too! I absolutely ADORED ReVamped (and Ada too for being the sweetest Canadian author ever), and Hush, Hush rocks! :)

    And you're soooo lucky that you have Ascend, Meghan! I'm a major Amanda Hocking fan and can't wait to get my hands on that book too :) Plus, I keep hearing things about the Twilight fanfic series (some really good, some REALLY bad haha), so I'm curious to what you think!

    Awesome owl post this week, you two! I hope you enjoy all of your awesome books! :) <3

    2. Haha, much thanks! I got it for about 4$ at my local walmart haha. I am really looking forward to reading it. The first two were really quite good :). I have definitely heard A LOT about 50 shades to. But I'm halfway through the second one now and I'm really liking them. Though I can see why they're not for everyone haha.
      Thanks so much for stopping by!
