Inspired by Anna @ Anna Reads.
What I Did:
I had/have a long 4-day weekend so I spent some time book shopping, reading, blogging, and tried to get outside as much as possible! I finally got to play tennis again with some friends that are home from college and I had a great time! It was also #IReadYA week so I had tons of fun scrolling through the Twitter hashtag and chatting about YA!
Links I Loved:
- Jackie @ She Reads She Blogs went on a rant about all the pretty British boys that have taken over the world of YA book to screen adaptations!
- April & Jen @ The Starry-Eyed Revue had some really great commentary regarding their (and I think a lot of readers’) love/hate relationship with LOVE TRIANGLES.
Books I Added to My Shelves:
(This week was such an amazing book week that made me SUPER happy!)
Won:
- Take Back the Skies by Lucy Saxon (ARC) from Bloomsbury’s Twitter giveaway – Thank you SO much!
- Trial by Fire by Josephine Angelini (ARC) from MyKindaBook’s Twitter giveaway – Thanks SO much!

Books & Cleverness 
Trial by fire sounds interesting 🙂 Happy reading!
Yes I’m super excited to read it! Thank you! 🙂
Enjoy the 4 day weekend. Hope you get lots of reading done 🙂 I look forward to reading your review of Since You’ve Been Gone, I’ve got to read that soon!
Thank you! I really recommend it – my favorite contemporary so far! 🙂
SINCE YOU’VE BEEN GONE. ❤ I can't find it in our local bookstores so I don't have it yet, but I'm so excited to read it! I've heard many great things about it. Not so much for Take Back the Skies, though.
I hope you can find it soon! And yeah I’ve heard mixed things about Take Back the Skies. We’ll see what I think…
Thanks for the shout out!!!
You’re very welcome! 🙂
I’m VERY curious about Trial By Fire. I hope you enjoy it! Take Back The Skies has an interesting premise too, but I think I’ll need to wait for more reviews. I look forward to seeing what you think of it. 🙂
Thanks I hope so too! The more I’ve looked into Take Back the Skies I’ve seen more mixed reviews but I’m still intrigued. Thanks for stopping by the blog! 🙂
