  4. I'm not surprised Revolution was your overall favourite and Last Sacrifice a close second too! I really need to remember to order the second book in the VA series into my library.

    Thanks for your comment on my Coverlicious post. I love the Envy dress too, it's very elegant and pretty without being too girly :)
