  6. Radiance looks so good! I hope you enjoy Bitten as well! (That is one of my absolute favourite books!) Happy reading this week!

    I understand though, books prove more useful than supplies during inclement weather anyway! :)

  9. OMG!!!!!! You bought the Wreck This Journal!!!!! I've been wanting to pick that one up forever, but every time I almost buy it, I stop and debate which book I would love more, and end up choosing something else!!!! I've heard a lot of good things about Alyson Noel, Rachel Vincent, and the Stieg Larson books, but I haven't heard of the other ones--looking forward to hearing how you like them!!! Have fun!!!
