    1. Hey Sally, so glad to hear you love that series, I have heard amazing things! Agreed the cover for Dance of Shadows is so striking!

  4. I only read the first book in the The Lying Game series. I didn't think much of it, it was just okay for me. I got into the Pretty Little Liars series, up until #6. It was then that a further 4 books were announced and I just said NO MORE. I hate when publishers do that. I liked the first four books... Have you read that series?

    I've been aching for Dance of Shadows since I first read about it. The dancing part and the psychological thriller part really appeals to me, so I'm hoping that if the two are put together it'll be amazing. Mystic City sounds great, as does Crewel. Heard good things about both of those. Hope you enjoy!

    See what books I got!

    1. I haven't read Pretty Little Liars I really wanted to but like you was put off by how many books there are so I opted for The Lying Game instead :)

      I may be tempted to read Dance of Shadows before next year at this rate, hearing a lot of people are enjoying it and I do love books like that!

  5. WELCOME BACK JESS!!

    OMG, I am addicted to The Lying Game series aswell, my copy of Hide And Seek should be arriving in the next few days, do you watch the tv show? Also do you read/watch Pretty Little Liars?

    Also I need Dance Of Shadows so much, I think its my most wanted book, the cover is amazing! Black Swan meets Gossip Girl? Yes please!

    2. I enjoy The Lying Game tv show although like all books made into shows there are differences so I don't know if they would bug you or not.

    3. Probably not that sort of thing doesn't bother me in fact I like it because it keeps it interesting but I know it does bug some people so thanks for letting me know!

    1. Oh no sorry to hear that! Do you live over seas? If so I know that publishers don't like shipping out because it costs a lot of money unless the blog is really really successful. Either way I hope you have better luck in the future.

    1. Thanks hun! I'm so excited to get around to Dance of Shadows and Tiger Lily. I'm still not 100% but I'm getting there and my reading and blogging mojo is well and truly back :D

  8. Hooray for a new video! I ALMOST ordered Tiger Lily right after watching this (never fear, it was already wishlisted) but I managed to resist a while longer! I've been a bit naughty this week already so I reckon I'd better read some of these first. I MUST get to Noughts and Crosses too, it's been on my shelves for years even though people keep telling me how amazing it is! Good to have you back sweets... :)

    1. Thank you lovely! Haha I did think that Tiger Lily sounded like such an Ellie book! Hey, you know you can always borrow it when I'm finished with it right? :) Yeah I've heard amazing things about that series so excited to finally own it!

  9. I'm sorry to hear you were so ill, Jess! I'm glad you're finally getting better. I've heard good things about Tiger Lily and Mystic City. I don't think Tiger Lily is a book for me but I hope you enjoy it. I look forward to seeing your posts again. :)

  10. Ah I loved the Noughts and Crosses series, that series of books helped get me into YA fiction. I met Malorie Blackman once too and she is so lovely.

    Here's mine this week: http://rebecca-books.blogspot.co.uk/2012/10/on-my-bookshelf-29.html
