  2. Some great books here! I really need to catch up with the Philippa Gregory series - and the show. I've still only watched the first episode. Remember I told you I thought it was just OK? Well, for the second episode, ratings fell rapidly. I'm going to check it out soon, and I'll fill you in! :)

  10. I've read a few Lauren Willig books. The first one in the Pink Carnation series, and the Christmas one. I love the whole Scarlet Pimpernel references. I should get back into that series. I thought they were totally pretty adorable.

    Anyway, enjoy all your goodies and happy reading :)

  11. I've read a few Lauren Willig books before. The first one in the Pink Carnation series, and the Christmas one. They were pretty darn cute. I loved all the Scarlet Pimpernel references. I should really read more from that series.

    Anyway, enjoy all your goodies and happy reading :)

  12. I want to read Rutherford Park and The Passion of the Purple Plumeria sounds good too. I used to really enjoy that series but I didn't read the last one. I like the protagonist in this one though.

    I have the 5th Wave checked out from my library and need to read it soon. I bet that Philippa Gregory series will become even more popular with the show on Starz next month. I hope you enjoy all of these!

  18. Lovely haul .... I'm loving the adaptation of The White Queen on the BBC at the moment.

    If you enjoy this you might like Stormbird by Conn Iggulden ... it's due out in October I think and I got a preview copy .... it's awesome!
