Hola, fellow readers! I had some really great books come my way this week, here we go!
From NetGalley three titles were approved:
Rockoholic by C.J. Skuse
November 1, 2012
With my love for music themes in books this one was a given. And you guys, there is a picture of that dude with his sunglasses off and he is is HOT. In case you were curious:)
Thank you Scholastic!
And All the Stars by Andrea K. Host
October 1, 2012
This one got a really great review by the gals over at The Book Smugglers. It's science fiction (SQUEE!) and has art themes!
Thank you Ms. Host!

This one is about cyber bullying and/or sexting. Either way it's a full on YA contemporary issue book which I confess I LOVE:)
Thank you Sourcebooks Fire!
From Edelweiss I received:
Where the Light Falls by Katherine Keenum
February 5, 2013
I saw this book on a couple of bloggers Sunday Post's last week and was intrigued. It's historical fiction that takes place during the Belle Epoque period in Paris. Heck yeah, I want to read that!
Thank you Berkely Trade!
From DAC ARC Tours I received:
Renegade by J. A. Souders

DeleteOoh, maybe I should request Rockaholic. This sunglasses tease of yours has me curious. On the other hand, I am getting my TBR pile down to a manageable level and am actually going to have time to read some stuff for fun and work on some new blog features.....
ReplyDeleteJen, seriously. It's the e-arc but the first few frames show the cover couple including him sunglass-less. Whoa. He's awfully young but I can still admire, right??:)
