  1. I've been seeing a lot of Eat, Brains, Love and The Infinite Moment of Us so I'm dying to see what people think about them soon! I have yet to read Anna and the French Kiss despite people constantly saying great things about it, but I think it's AMAZING that you found the signed copy of Lola & the Boy Next Door for so cheap! *drools* Enjoy your books and happy reading :)

    You can check out my STS here if you'd like!

  4. I have The Infinite Moment of Us as well, and have been slowly reading it. So far I'm sorta iffy on it, but we'll see.

    And so jealous of the signed LOLA. :)

    BABY AEICHA. She just keeps getting even MORE adorable! <3

  5. Baby Aeicha is so adorable! Aww! She's such a cutie. Love her chubby cheeks!

    The Infinite Moment of Us sounds like an emotional and intense read. I requested it on NG, but still haven't heard anything from the pub.
    The Flame in the Mist also looks good. I need to get a copy when it comes out.

    Enjoy your lovely books! :)
    Happy Reading!

Hey there cupcake! You look lovely today and I can tell you're thinking very smarticle thinky thoughts....so go ahead and post 'em!

After much thought and only recently being introduced to blog awards and blogger tagging, I'm going to have to declare this an award/tag free blog. I'm honored, humbled, and so very grateful for simply being considered for an award, but I simply do not have the time to return the favor. If I could, I'd award y'all with dozens of yummy cupcakes ;) Thanks for understanding.
