Fighting Dreamer: Takarabako ~ Treasure(Mail)Box ~「2」

12:23 PM | Posted by: Cayce | | Edit Post

Last week, I checked out some of the new IMM replacements, and I have to say that for different reasons, but I love all of them. So from now on, I'm going to link up to them every week. But I can't list this many meme names in the title, so I'm going to go with my own creation :) (I hope that's okay. ) Click on the image to visit the hosts.

Bought:

First Comes Love by Katie Kacvinsky (Just finished it yesterday. Loved it!)
Storm (Elementals #1) by Brigid Kemmerer

Won:

Matched (Matched #1) by Ally Condie. Such a pretty green book. And it's signed!! Me loves signed books :) Huge thanks to Jess @ Reading in the Corner!

From the Library:

Specials (Uglies #3) by Scott Westerfeld

I've read the first two Uglies book a few years ago, and while I loved the first one, the second was a disappointment. I mostly picked up Specials now, because of the cover. It's more Pretties than Specials, but I like it. I might have read some spoilers about the end, but even if I did I don't remember any of it now...So I hope it has a decent ending.

If I Stay (If I Stay #1) by Gayle Forman.

A very emotional read. 4 stars. I don't know if I want to read the next book though, I kinda liked how it ended.

Weekly Blog Recap:

What A Boy Wants by Nyrae Dawn [Review]
Unraveling by Elizabeth Norris [Review]
Book Quotes
May Monster Madness - The End

Bad news: Awake and GCB has been cancelled. :(:(

No more Vampire Diaries until Fall.

Good news: There's going to be a second season of Hart of Dixie :):):)

What about your favorite shows? Cancelled or renewed?

Awesome cover on Specials! Specials was a bit better than Pretties in my opinion. No where near as good as Uglies though.

Have a good week!
