  15. Sweet haul and awesome week on the blog. I love the cover of Carnival of Souls and really want to read it, but I bought Night Circus when it first released and still haven't read it..so i decided until I read it no Carnival..LOL Thanks for being a part of the Sunday Post and enjoy your weekend!

  16. I am SO anxious to read Splintered!! I requested it a while back on NG too but haven't heard back yet... I LOVE the cover.. so gorgeous :) I was really excited for Monument 14 but couldn't quite get into it.. I only started in the beginning and it didn't grab me right away but I'll definitely give it another shot when I'm in a better frame of mind maybe :)

    Thanks for stopping by my StS!

  35. So many great books, Sharon! I'm quite jealous about Carnival of Souls and Sweet Shadows. I loved Sweet Venom, and it feels like I've been waiting forever for the second book! I'd love to get the audiobook version of Carnival of Souls because James Marsters from Buffy and Angel is narrating it. ;-) Enjoy all your books! <3
