See the photo on the right? You are not hallucinating. That really is The Piper's Son signed to me. I know! Huge big thanks to my favorite author in the world Melina Marchetta! It's a dream come true. *tears* :') By the way, if you don't know, I have a MM fan page called 132 Minutes. Check it out!

Also thank you to my BFF Brie @ Confessions of the Reading Housewife for gifting me with a B&N gift-card! *glomps* I bought three books: Angelfall, Dragon Bound, and Untraceable. I've heard so many good things about Angelfall, so I'm especially excited to read that one!

That's all I have to say for this IMM. Hope everyone had a great book week! :)

  1. I've heard so many awesome things about ANGELFALL, which is why I got an eBook copy of it a while ago - sadly I still haven't got around to reading it. I'm a bit jealous of SUCH A RUSH which sounds extremely awesome, so I hope you'll enjoy it (and the rest, of course, too)! :)

    1. I've been wanting to read Angelfall for awhile now too! I'm so glad to have gotten a paperback because I'm not always able to read books on the computer. Such a Rush was really good! Hope you like it too! :)
