    Dragon Bound was AMAZING! It totally lived up to the hype and now I'm pretty much salivating for the next two books to come out this year. Enjoy your books!

    Have you not read Gail Carriger yet? I really enjoy the Parasol Protectorate series. Alexia is a hoot and Lord Maacon...well, I'd lick him. It's just a fun take on Victorian Steampunk fantasy. Enjoy, Carriger creates fascinatingly fun characters.

    Nice haul Jenny! I highly recommend Shade and Shift! And Hex A Witch and Angel Tale. That's all I've read out of those. I plan to interview Ramona Wray soon, she had a good reason for making her cover the way she did and I wanted to give her a chance to explain it.
    I cannot wait to read your reviews!!
