After seeing so much about the 5th wave all over the Internet, I decided to buy a copy to see what all of the hype was about! It looks really cool, and Jack (YA bookstop) and I might be reading this at the same time soon to do a creative joint review. Watch out for that!

Yay!! This arrived in the post yesterday and I have been waiting impatiently to read it for a year and I really can’t wait to begin it… VORTEX By S. J. Kincaid! It looks so amazing. Big thank you to the lovely Olivia at Hot Key Books!!

And, this morning, I found this at Sainsbury’s- Phil Earle’s collection of three books, including his new Heroic, which I’ve wanted to read for ages! They all look so brilliant.

I also ordered two books in at my library: The Wall by William Sutcliffe and After Tomorrow by Gillian Cross, so I can read them for the Guardian Children’s fiction prize shortlist. Those two are the ones I want to read most!

And, if you have missed the post I uploaded earlier this week, here is a link to the giveaway I’m running! There’s the chance to win a copy of HALF LIVES by Sara Grant via rafflecopter.

Also, today is the beginning of DYSTOPIA MONTH at YA BOOK STOP, run by Jack. Go check it out! There’ll be lots of giveaways and features and interviews. I’ve interviewed Dan Wells for e blog event! That will be featured towards the end of the moth, on Jack’s blog as well as mine. (Doesn’t the banner look AWESOME?!)

Happy reading!
