this is totally of the topic but I love how unique your blog layout it! :D
ReplyDeleteI really enjoyed Twenty Boy Summers, LOVED Tiger's Curse and Unearthly! I hope you enjoy every single books you got this week and happy reading, Lea! ♥ :)
ReplyDeleteHere is my IMM
Great books you received last week! Unearthly and Across The Universe! Exciting :)
ReplyDeleteMy IMM
It looks like we're in the same boat. Most of the book in your IMM i haven't read either. I really have to get to them...soon. By the way, i love the necklace you are wearing; it's very eye catching.
ReplyDelete=D
Love the sound of Tiger's Curse! And cute blog :) Enjoy your haul!
ReplyDeleteReviews by Molly's IMM
The Summer My Life Began sounds like a great, fun read! I've been reading a lot of contemporary YA lately, and this sounds perfect for the summer. Happy reading! :)
ReplyDeleteYou thought it was an amoeba? An amoeba? Bwahahahahahaha, LOL...jk. That is a very deceiving cover. I hope you enjoy Across the Universe. I loved it. It took a bit for me to get hooked, so just be patient with it.
ReplyDeleteYour idea of reading mostly contemporary fun reads sounds like a great idea for summer. I'm getting a little sick of the paranormals myself.
You got some great books this week, I really like the cover of The Summer My Life Began but I've read some reviews that said it's a let down :( But I do really want to read Imaginary Girls, great cover too!
ReplyDeleteI don't think I've read any of these ones but I hope you'll like them! Happy reading!
ReplyDeleteMy IMM
Unearthly is such an awesome book! I loved reading it, so I hope that you do too! Happy reading!
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing!

The Academie sounds amazing. I hadn't heard of it before, so I am now adding it to my "to be read" list.
ReplyDeleteUnearthly is one of the better angel novels. I enjoyed it quite a bit.
Great mailbox!
I haven't heard of some of the books in your IMM, but I should definitely check them out !
ReplyDeleteI hope you enjoy all of them :)
Happy reading ! :D

Awesome mailbox week hun!!! So many great titles I cannot wait to hear your thoughts for! Thank you so much for sharing and for stopping by!!! <3
ReplyDeleteTiger's Curse is utterly fabulous, though it's definitely not 'summery contemporary YA'. ;) It was my December "Book of the Month" pick. I loved it.
ReplyDeleteI have Across the Universe on my shelf and need to get to it once my friend Kate is done reading it. (Hurry up! *laughs*).
I'm about half way through Unearthly and need to finish it. I had issues with it at the beginning, but it really picked up and sucked me in and only the fact that I've been editing my own novel has kept me from getting back to it.
As for Twenty Boy Summer I *really* need to read that, because I've *wanted* to read it for ages. Gah! I saw it yesterday, too. Why didn't I buy it? *shakes head*
Anyway, enjoy all the great books. I hope next week is just as fun for you. :) Thanks for visiting my blog.
I love the sound of all of them! I too have Unearthly, which I haven't read, but I hope you enjoy it!
ReplyDeleteI can't wait to read unearthly and i'm totally adding The Academie to my TBR list, sounds awesome!

I adore Across the Universe and Tiger's Curse! Can't wait to see what you think of them :D
ReplyDeleteHave a great day!
~Beatriz
Unearthly is really good and The Academie has one of the most memorable endings I've ever read. Can't wait to see what you think about both!
ReplyDeleteI'm so excited to finally read my copy of When the Sea is Rising Red! I feel like that book is going to be AWESOME :D
ReplyDeleteAnna @ Literary Exploration
Wooow! That was a long video. But I liked it. And how great is it that you are a librarian! Awesome!
ReplyDeleteHope you enjoy al of your books.
And 1 thing...you forgot Halfblood in your list. :D
Have a great evening!

sweet list.....Unearthly was a great read, Across the Universe is on my wishlist and so is touch of frost. Thanks for stopping by my IMM
ReplyDeleteGreat list! I am always so jealous of your mailbox! I really enjoyed Unearthly and Across the Universe. Can't wait to see what you think of The Academie!
ReplyDeleteEmily @ Falling for YA
the cover for The Academie by Susanne Dunlap looks gorgeous! so pretty! and if you're looking for light contemporaries you should check the summer trilogy by jenny han, perfect summer read! and i can't believe you haven't read 20 boy summer. it is AWESOME though not really light.
ReplyDeleteGREAT IMM!!!

Awesome mailbox :D Across the Universe is so so good. <3 As is Imaginary Girls :) Enjoy it all ;D
ReplyDeleteLove, Carina @ Carina's Books
I adore library books :) I just snagged THE FALSE PRINCE and TRAITOR'S SON last week :) I've been wanting to read THE ACADEMIE as well! I didn't realize it was historical! Have you read anything by Jessica Brody? I like her for light contemporary! I liked PAST PERFECT last year by Leila Sales as well for that sort of genre! I'm sure your co-workers are used to you, lol. They're used to me! Oh, I've been wanting to read Sarah Ockler as well! IMAGINARY GIRLS is contemporary, but it's a little...I don't know if I'd call it paranormal, but..I don't know what I'd call it. It was def. a favorite cover of mine last year! I was borderline with it, but I think I had super high expectations. Can't wait to hear your thoughts! I'm like you. Even if reviews are mixed, if I want to read it or was looking fw to it, I still will. Like THE PLEDGE by Kimberly Derting! A lot of people didn't like it a lot, but it's also *fantasy* dystopian with kings and queens and stuff, so a lot of people don't like that genre in their dystopian, but I like it a lot! Oh, ATU! I still need to read the second book! I still have to read my copy of WHEN THE SEA IS RISING RED, eep! And the second...and third...Estep.... It is a mythology book, yes. But not a retelling of anything! UNEARTHLY, ahh!! I cannot WAIT to hear your thoughts! So so so good. I'm like you. I'm not a fan of angel books, but UNEARTHLY was so good! I love that your library has HALF-BLOOD and that you had it ordered in. It's SUCH a good book and I can't wait to hear your thoughts!! (Speaking of cover love, did you see that I did an interview with the cover designer Kate Kaynak for the tour this past month? So much fun! :) )
ReplyDeleteThe Summer My Life Began sounds really good. I live with a chef and think it's really sweet that the MC dreams of becoming one :)
ReplyDeleteTwenty Boy Summer is incredible!!! I've read it three times already and cry every time... Enjoy all your books!
ReplyDeleteYou are so right about Beth Revis. I met her at YALL FEST and she is hilarious. I really want to read When the Sea is Rising Red and Tiger's Course. You had a great library week! I hope you enjoy them all:)
ReplyDeleteI want to read The Academie so bad, and was approved on Netgalley for it but it was too late! By the time I realized I'd been approved it had already been archived. Sad but true story. Enjoy reading your new books :)
ReplyDeleteSo many good ones!!! Across the Universe is one of my favorites...I really enjoyed Twenty Boy Summer and loved Imaginary Girls.
ReplyDeleteHappy reading!!!
Great books! Across the Universe looks fun. It always catches my eye. Have a good week!

The Summer My Life Began does look cute...and LOVE Across the Universe and Twenty Boy Summer!
ReplyDeleteHope you enjoy them all, Lea! :D
I'm glad that I'm not the only one who hasn't read Across the Universe! I've had it, and Imaginary Girls, sitting on my bookshelf for eons -- must get on that ASAP! I look forward to reading your reviews as well. I haven't heard of The Academie, but I have a fondness for boarding school books, so I look forward to hearing what you think of that one too!
ReplyDeleteHere's my IMM, if you'd like to stop by! http://writergrrlreads.blogspot.ca/2012/04/imm-4.html
Great haul Lea! Those are some great looking books there and I hope you enjoy them all. I especially liked Imaginary Girls and Tiger's Curse. Happy reading! :)
ReplyDeleteAwesome books this week!! I LOVED Unearthly and I hope you like it as well!!
ReplyDeleteHappy reading and thanks for stopping by :D
I've been wondering how The Academie is - look forward to your review!
ReplyDelete- Jessica @ Book Sake
I need to read like every book you mentioned lol, I have Unearthly on my shelf, but need to find the time for it.
ReplyDeleteI love going to the library, not only does it save me a lot of money, but I hope it helps the library itself :)
I LOVED Unearthly and I'm really curious about When The Sea Is Rising Red, so I can't wait to see what you think of that one.
ReplyDeleteFreaking gorgeous blog BTW, so awesome! I've probably said that before but I'm saying it again.
Thanks for stopping by!
I LOVED Twenty Boy Summer, I read it last year right around this time! It was soo extremely sad, but also really good! I would recommend getting a box of tissues, before you start reading. I hope you enjoy all of your new books!

ReplyDeleteOhhhhhh how I absolutely LOVE 'Unearthly' I can't wait to get my hands on a copy of 'Hallowed'. I just recently read 'Across the Universe' and enjoyed it. It is different but still highly believable. Hope you enjoy them all.
ReplyDeleteYou can find my IMM here! CLICKY HERE! =D if you would like.
Hope you have a wonderful day.
I LOVED Unearthly, Across the Universe and Twenty Boy Summer. I have a copy of Tiger's Curse, just haven't gotten the chance to read it yet. I've been wanting to read Touch Frost! It sounds amazing.
ReplyDeleteThat's so cool that you're a librarian. I don't have a local library to go to (that's in a safe neighborhood) so I miss out on the chance of getting books there. But that's awesome that you do :) I hope you enjoy all these books.
Thanks for stopping by!
