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.
This weekend I'm linking to Stacking the Shelves @ Tynga's Reviews or to Sunday Post hosted by Kimba the Caffeinated Book Reviewer.
GIVEAWAYS:
For Freebie Friday, I'm giving away an ARC of A Mad, Wicked Folly. Open to US residents! If you're international, you can enter Hot Off the Presses.
NEW BOOKS:
I got two new approvals on NetGalley :) Thanks to Disney-Hyperion and Scholastic for these!
Very excited for Fire and Flood by Victoria Scott. I've been an Amazing Race fan for decades!
And don't you love this cover for The Hunt (Paper Doll Project #2) by Stacey Kade?
BLOG NEWS:
On Thursday I introduced a new blog feature, Trending Thursday. Every week (I hope!) I'll pick a YA trend and we can discuss. This past week was lots of fun as we discussed popular (overused?) YA character names and I made some predictions for 2014. Check it out!
I'll be participating in the Romance Is In the Air giveaway hop, starting February 8! I'm making lists of romantic books right now..
That's it for me. What's new with you? Tell me in comments and leave me a link so I can visit you back!
Ooh! I need to read the Paper Dolls series. I love Stacey Kade's other series. And I got approved for Fire and Flood too. Can't wait to read it. It looks awesome!
ReplyDeleteI really liked the first book. And hope we both enjoy Fire and Flood!
DeleteVery curious to how you'll like Fire & Flood. I've not requested The Hunt from NG...I should probably do that. Excited to hear your thoughts on both of these books.
ReplyDeleteI hope I like it - I've heard good things about her other books!
DeleteI love the cover for The Hunt-much more interesting to me than the first book's-probably because there's a pretty dress and I can never resist that :)
ReplyDeleteI love the cover -- so different!
DeleteI'm very excited to read Fire and Flood. It looks like an amazing read. I got it as well. Come check out my stack as well.

Will do!
DeleteThey rejected me for The Hunt lol I hadn't seen that cover - wow! It's gorgeous!!!
ReplyDeleteWhat????? So sorry about that.
DeleteYAY for two new approvals! I have Fire & Flood for review (doubly, now), and I can't wait to read it. I hope you and I will love it! And I have not really heard much about The Hunt - I'll keep an eye out for your review! :)
ReplyDeleteHave a fantastic weekend!
Check out my STS post!
It's the second in the Paper Doll series, and I enjoyed the first one!
DeleteI still haven't read the first book in Kade's series so I'm not requesting that one. I need to get to my copy of Fire & Flood...I kind of adore the author but I also love the sense of humor she infuses into her books. Hope there's more of the same in this one. :)
ReplyDeleteMe too!
DeleteI am so looking forward to The Hunt- I really loved the first book in the series!
ReplyDeleteI did too, and was not expecting that :)
DeleteI actually have the first book in Kade's series on my TBR shelf. I need to read it soon!!! I cannot wait to read Fire & Flood though. I have already seen so many amazing things about it!! I hope you enjoy your new pretty books!! :) Thanks for sharing!!

Definitely give it a try -- I wasn't sure about it and ended up enjoying it!
DeleteI think I tried to pick it up after a really bad book hangover, and had a hard time getting into it so I put it back on the shelf, but I do plan on giving it another try! Just not after a major book hangover HAHA :)
DeleteOh, that giveaway hop sounds fun! I might have to participate in that. I got Fire & Flood too... that one looks really good. And, I have to admit, I'm not a huge fan of those new covers for Kade's books. :/ Maybe they'll grow on me.
ReplyDeleteI like the new covers better -- I'm not such a fan of huge faces on covers. Sorry you're not a fan of the change :(
DeleteI have the first Made book on my Kindle, but never got to it. The series sounds really interesting. I hope you love your new reads!

ReplyDeleteCrossing my fingers for you!!

DeleteYes, love that cover and can't wait to read as well
ReplyDeleteGreat haul! I'm excited to check out Fire and Flood. The cover of The Hunt looks pretty cool too! Can't wait to see Trending Thursday! Have an awesome week (:
ReplyDeleteHere's my Sunday Post & STS at Book Munchies
Great haul! I do love that cover, but I haven't heard of that book or series before. I hope you enjoy your books! My STS :)
ReplyDeleteI have actually never heard of the Paper Doll series! Also, I've seen a lot of people getting Fire & Blood! Hope you enjoy reading them both!

Fire and Flood sounds really good! I still need to read Rules, but I loved her Ghost and Goth series. Happy Reading!
ReplyDeleteOMG! Love the first book to the Paperdoll project! Sweet cover :)
ReplyDeleteFire & Flood! I plan on reading that one next week! I so hope it is as good as it sounds. :)
