It's been a while since I've had such a busy week. You scored a lot of great titles! I'd love to trade you on that copy of Slice of Cherry one you're done with it! Yeah, just...great week for you! I decided to clump my IMM into two weeks (next week; afterwards, it'll be weekly yet again) so I can do a VLOG! :D I'm super excited, since I have received SO many fantastic books.
Really liked Embrace; hope you do too! I'm surprised to see how thin Freefall is. I need to pick up a copy.
Happy reading! I'd say, read the library book first! :P
Great books this week! I'm working on Nightshade right now. Really into it. Enjoy the week!
This is awesome. I can't wait to hear your thoughts on some of them. I'm thinking of getting Freefall from The Book Depository. I've heard so many awesome things about it.I love the cover of Nightshade :)

Great stack! I've been wanting to read Saltwater Vampires and Scout. Lucky you on getting an ARC of Across the Universe! I can't wait to read it. I'm also stopping by via the Hop. Thanks for hopping by my blog. I'm a new follower :)
Oh you got some good looking books. Enjoy the reading. :)
Ohhhh, I'm in love with the cover for Freefall. Like, serious love. And the concept sounds very cool, too.
BUT. I vote Raincheck on Timbuktu for what you read first -- it's so, so gorgeous. One of my absolute favourite Aussie YAs.
All of the books you got this week look awesome, though! (including Across the Universe. I've already spoken of my jealousy in another post, haha) :D
Amazing pile of books!I really enjoyed The Luxe!
Happy Reading!
What an amazing stack of books! I can't wait to hear what you think about Across the Universe!
Thanks for all the comments. Just about finished Across the Universe and the review shall be up in the next few days :)
@ Nomes - Sent you a message about Freefall :)
@ Cass - We will have to talk swapping! Can't wait to see your stack in your VLOG.
@ Vee - Heard Raincheck on Timbuktu was awesome :)
Seriously can't wait to read your review for Across the Universe! :D Also, can't wait to know what you think about Embrace and Saltwater Vampires. Those sound really good. :)
Thanks for stopping by my IMM. The only book you have this week that I've read is LUXE, which I really loved. So that's the only one I can recommend.
Ooooooh I am super envious of the arcs! They are both books I totally want to read. Happy reading!
Great mailbox! Nightshade was epic! I cannot wait to read Across the Universe! The cover is gorgeous + The Beatles title reference + awesomesauce premise = what more could a book junkie ask for?? I can't wait to see what you think!
