– Wood Angel by Erin Bow
On the Blog – Reviews:
– Vampire Academy by Richelle Mead
– Hearts at Stake by Alyxandra Harvey
– Haven by Kristi Cook
Book Related News:
– Crossed (Matched #2) by Ally Condie cover reveal!
– Andrea Cremer, author of Nightshade, announced that there is going to be new covers for Nightshade and Wolfsbane. So the covers that are just MADE of pretty are going to be discontinued and/or not printed at all. *sad face* There is a twitition going around that protests to keep the pretty green Wolfsbane cover for hardback, if you wish to sign it.
Other News:
– 100 sled dogs were culled in Canada, just because tourism has decreased.

You’ve had some really amazing books this week Amber, and as always I really enjoyed watching your vlog.
I’m afraid I’m one of those who hasn’t started the Vampire Academy books yet. I do have the first two, but I want to collect the whole series before I start it AND I want those beautiful red covers!
Hope you enjoy Divergent. It sounds totally awesome. I have pre-ordered it for my Kindle. Can’t wait to start it myself.
Manda says
Ooh jealous of Divergent! It looks really good.

Nice, both our blogs are full of Vampire Academy awesomeness! =)
‘Divergent’ looks so good. Everyone seems to like it, and I have to say I’m quite jealous, haha.
Gina @ My Precious says
Oh man! I want to read Haven so badly. I think I’m going to go check out your review next. I also am very drawn to Divergent rave reviews have been posted on that book.
Enjoy!
Aisle B says
Girl I loved VA series by Richelle Mead. My favorite one was Blood Promise and wait till you get to the last book Last Sacrifice. I heard about her Succubus series so that may be my next thing. I like your covers far more than the North American one.
Happy Reading ๐
Mrs. Q: Book Addict says
Wow, lots of great books. I haven’t read anything my Richelle Mead yet. I think i’m the only one…. I will have to fix this. Enjoy all your new reads.
Misty says
I have heard nothing but good things about Divergent. I can’t wait to read it. 1 person I know even said she liked it better than Hunger Games.
Girl in the Arena is on my wishlist, too, though I’ve heard mixed reviews of that one.
Briana says
Love Vampire Academy! It’s one of my favorites series. I’m SO excited to read Divergent!

Moirae(thefates) book reviews says
Is it bad that I am more envious of your awesome poster then anyone’s mailbox books this week?
Great books!!
Jessica (Firefly Book Loft) says
I love those Vampire Academy covers so so much more than the ones we have. And I am so nervous to start Spirit Bound because I don’t know how much more I can take! You are totally right in calling the series an emotional roller coaster.
Can’t wait to see what you think about Divergent though. That one sounds good.
And you’ll have to let us know if the speech dashes in Girl In The Arena are really bothersome.
Happy Reading!
Small Review says
I am so looking forward to your review of Girl in the Arena. I’ve heard mixed things, but it seems so good. I also love the cover.
Oh no! I had seen the new Nightshade/Wolfsbane covers but I didn’t realize they weren’t going to print the pretty Wolfsbane cover! I like the new ones ok, but the old ones were truly beautiful and eye-catching. What a shame.
Eli says
Thanks for the visit!
I love the way you do your IMM! And Divergent looks so good! Happy reading!!
