Loved Unwind so much I had to buy my own copy. Can't wait for the sequel! I've been wanting to read Ballads of Suburbia and Stolen for awhile, so I decided to buy them. From the library, checked out Firelight. I still need to read those other library books I have. ^^;

A huge thanks goes out to Arlene for getting me a copy of Ruined, since there are no Borders or Waldenbooks where I live. And also for sending me swag and getting Kelley Armstrong to sign my copy of The Reckoning at the Smart Chicks Kick It Tour! You are awesome! *glomps*

There's the pic of my signed book on the right. In a note, I asked Kelley Armstrong if she could write "Chloe/Derek FTW!" (because I love me some Chloe/Derek and nothing else came to mind) and she did! She also gave me Chloe & Derek buttons! They just look so freakin' adorable. She is one cool author. :D Thanks Kelley Armstrong and again Arlene!

Lastly, back in August, some blogs were part of the Hunger Games District Blog Tour. Each held contests for various Hunger Games merchandise, and I actually won something! Glow-in-the-dark Mockingjay buttons from Jenn's Bookshelves, who was District 8 in the tour. I was so excited when I received them. Thanks to Jenn & Big Honcho Media!

Well, that's it for now! Can't wait to see your IMM. :)
