Between the Devil and the Deep Blue Sea by Genevieve Tucholke If You Could Be Mine by Sara Farizan 45 Pounds by K.A. Barson

Between the Devil and the Deep Blue Sea by Genevieve Tucholke (Dial, August 2013)

If You Could Be Mine by Sara Farizan (Algonquin, August 2013)

45 Pounds by K.A. Barson (Viking, Jul 2013)

Somebody Up There Hates You by Hollis Seamon Truly, Madly, Deadly by Hannah Jayne When You Were Here by Daisy Whitney


Somebody Up There Hates You by Hollis Seamon (Algonquin, September 2013)

Truly, Madly, Deadly by Hannah Jayne (Sourcebooks, July 2013)

When You Were Here by Daisy Whitney (Little, Brown BFYR June 2013)

 Thanks SO much to Penguin, Little, Brown BFYR and Sourcebooks for letting me read these great books!

Reviews and book discussions you might have missed:

The Originals by Cat Patrick -- find out why I called this book about sister clones "Sci Fi Little Women!"

What Really Happened in Peru by Cassandra Clare and Sarah Rees Brennan -- I listened to this on audio and give you the scoop on the whole series of novellas.

The Testing by Joelle Charbonneau -- did this new dystopian pass my test?

Thorn Abbey by Nancy Ohlin -- I'm a huge fan of Daphne DuMaurier's Rebecca. Did this retelling thrill or disappoint?

And check out my author interview with Jodi Lamm, author of Chemistry, a retelling of The Hunchback of Notre Dame!  We talk about goats. Really!


Coming up next week:
Reviews (I hope) of The Lucy Variations by Sara Zarr and The 5th Wave by Rick Yancey.

On Thursday, I'm hosting a Choose Your Own Adventure Blog Hop for a longtime blog reader -- and soon-to-be-published-writer, Eliza Tilton. 




Her debut YA novel,  Broken Forest, will be published on Wednesday from Curiosity Quills Press. I'm so excited for her and can't wait to choose my own adventure!  Remember those books??



So … what's new with you? Tell me in comments and leave me a link so I can visit you back!

    I've heard that Between the Devil and the Deep Blue Sea is really good! Think it might be a bit too scary for me though!

    Great book this week! Dying to read Between the Devil and the Deep Blue Sea. Just learned about 45 pounds and it sounds great. Truly, Madly, Deadly had a very good synopsis which has me intrigued.

    I love the title of Truly, Madly, Deeply. It reminds me of the song, and I love it. :)

    Have a great week.

    OMG Between the Devil and the Deep Blue Sea!! I requested it, but Penguin hates me, so I will get declined. I don't know why I even bother really. Maybe one of these times they will love me enough to approve me. Truly, Madly, Deadly sounds awesome too. And OMG I loved the choose your own adventure books when I was a kid!! Super exciting!!

    I am excited for this Choose Your Own Adventure Bloghop...... What adventure will I choose!!!! I was thinking... if I ever have time... to organize like a murder mystery blog hop sort of thing... where each blog is a character or a clue or something.... and you have to solve the mystery. But it feels like a lot of work for something I'm not sure people would participate in. lol.
