Extra! Extra! 53

Extra! Extra!

Extra! Extra! is my weekend post featuring brand new additions to my TBR pile as well as a summary of what's new on the blog.

Today, I'm on vacation, so I'm actually NOT linking to Stacking the Shelves @ Tynga's Reviews and to Sunday Post hosted by Kimba the Caffeinated Book Reviewer.   I will try to get caught up on my comments early next week :)

More Than This

Yes, I know I also had this up last week, but I requested it on Net Galley so I could more easily read it on vacation. Thanks, Candlewick!


Ketchup Clouds
by Annabel Pitcher
November 2013
Little, Brown BFYR

A girl corresponding with a guy on death row? Yeah. This author's book My Sister Lives on the Mantlepiece got some great reviews, so I'm giving this a go! Thanks, Little, Brown!

Thanks for stopping by -- if you leave a comment, I will be getting caught back up on comments when I return from my trip early next week :)

  3. I love Patrick Ness so much. He is probably my favorite? So I can read his books over and over but I don't think I could EVER read them for review! I'm so interested in this one but I haven't even read summaries or synopses or anything. YES I LOVE HIM THAT MUCH! How exciting that you're already reading it! EEK. That means it's coming soon!

  5. Yup, Ketchup Clouds is soooo my kind of book. That probably surprised none of my friends and family, but probably worries other people. ;)

  6. I've heard good things about Patrick Ness but haven't read his books. A girl corresponding with a guy on death row does sound interesting. Happy reading!

  9. Two quirky sounding titles and covers. (Plus they color coordinate - very important in a TBR pile lol)

    I'm looking forward to your reviews for both of them

  10. Kate is right, I'm not at all surprised that she is excited about Ketchup Clouds. I will wait for y'all to read it before I decide.

    I hope you had a great vacation!
