  3. I hope you have a great time at BEA! Don't stress yourself out too much. I went to ALA in January, and I know it doesn't compare to BEA by half, but I know you'll have an exciting time. I dragged my sister, who's not NEARLY as bookish as me, along and even she enjoyed herself. Plus, we picked up some books for our kiddos. :)

    Great haul this week! You made me go add Changeling to my cart on B&N, even though it was already teetering on the edge of way too full. :)

    P.S. Pick me up a copy of Raven Boys, will ya?!? :P J/k. Sorta. :D

  4. I keep wanting to check out the books from the Melissa De La Cruz series.. but there are so many of them I think.. and so many off-shoots?

    Happy reading and thanks for stopping by :)
