IMM 1/23

Not too much this week - snow and sick toddlers have kept me from a library trip. However, it isn't completely barren thanks to the wonder of NetGalley!

Received through NetGalley - 

Always a Witch by Caroline MacCullough
The Vespertine by Saundra Mitchell

Whoo! So excited about Always a Witch, I was giddy when I saw it listed. It takes me longer to read the e-versions, since I have to be at my computer*, but with books like these to tempt me I know I'll stick with it.

*Yes, I could get an e-reader, but judging by my track record with mp3 players it would be utterly destroyed within 3 months. I'm a bit absentminded and it is hard on electronics!

    I picked these up from Netgalley a bit ago as well but haven't gotten to them yet. I'm excited to read them though and would love to see what you think of them. Here is what I got this week. Happy reading!

    The cover for Always a Witch is beautiful. I just realized that the photography and design was done by the same artist who did the covers for Fallen, Torment and Passion by Lauren Kate. Anyways, nice mailbox. I am a new follower.

    Always A Witch is even better than Once A Witch, and that's saying something because I loved Once A Witch! Happy reading!
