  10. Thanks for the comments guys!

    Mandi - thanks for visiting! Name of the Star is great so far!

    Cicely - It's going well so far :)

    Anna - I know, I'm planning to!

    Jess Day - thanks.

    Jenny - I'll try and post reviews soon after I'm finished reading. I'm on The Name of the Star at the moment and I love it, very creepy sometimes, but a lot of fun too - I definitely recommend it! I'm planning on reading Hard Bitten next.

    Mary @ SweepingMe - I was pretty camera shy when I started, and I feel awkward recording the vlogs sometimes, but I think it's something I've just adjusted to, seeing other people do them - I think it's kind of fun making them :) The first book in the series with Hard Bitten is Some Girls Bite - you should check them out! Thanks for visiting :)

    Jac - I'll try and get reviews up soon :) The Name of the Star is excellent so far, I recommend it. Thanks for visiting!

    Jenna - Thanks for the follow! I saw so many reviews for The Name of the Star saying people were loving it that I had to break my book buying ban and get it. So far it's totally worth it.

  21. Great new reads!

    I got The Name of the Star awhile back, but I admit, I'm too scared to read it. I read the first chapter and it creeped me out lol.

    Also, your banner is cool. I was flinging my cursor around for like 3 minutes haha!

    My mailbox is here!
