  1. Nice! I loved Dead Silence. Only saddened by the fact that it's the last book for now. There seems to be future hopes for more.

    Curious about Chaos of the Stars though! Happy Reading!

    My STS will be up Sunday, so be sure to stop by then!

    Have a GREAT weekend!

    1. I have only just started Dead Silence & I'm enjoying it so far :-) it is sad this series has come to an end.

      Can't wait to see your StS post tomorrow.

    1. Tremble was amazing! I <3 this series. I started Chaos of the Stars but I've put it down for the time being, it just wasn't holding my interest unfortunately.

  3. It looks like you got lots of great ones this week! I have had a slower week, but that's a good thing! Actually, never mind. I just remembered the huge package I got from Penguin. So not so slow... Yep, gotta get busy reading!

  11. I haven Spirit, too. I'm excited to read that one, but am waiting until it's a little closer to it's release date. I liked Crossing the Line, but not even close to the same amount as I did Pushing the Limits. But it's a novella, so that's not really surprising.

    Annnyway, enjoy all your goodies and happy reading :)

    1. I started on The Chaos of Stars but had to put it down, it just wasn't holding my interest which is a shame. I really liked Find Me, it was definitely different than what I was expecting.

    1. Thanks Kimba :) I have The Edge of Never in audio format which I'm not a huge fan of so I'm going to have to grab a physical copy before continuing it. Find Me was great and I'm hoping to start on Not a Drop to Drink very soon.
