    I am just about to start reading Vanishing Girls - I've seen some mixed reviews already and I haven't totally loved any of the Lauren Oliver books I've read so I'm hoping this one works for me!

      I read it last week and while it was entertaining, it wasn't my favorite. You'll have to let me know your thoughts. Thanks for dropping by, Leanna!

      Vendetta was a great read. I hope you get to read it soon. Vanishing Girls was just an ok read for me. I'll have to keep my eye out for your review. Thanks for visiting, Michelle!

    Vendetta and At the Waters Edge sound so good. I love a book that takes place in Scotland. Vanishing Girls also sounds quite good. I hope you enjoy your books and have a great week! :)

    I haven't heard of At The Water's Edge before, but I am really intrigued by the cover so I'll have to check it out! Congrats on getting so many good books this week. Code Name Verity is a book I definitely have to get soon. I am a sucker for Historical Fiction so I'm not really sure why I haven't read it yet. Happy reading. :)

    So I ended up really enjoying Vanishing Girls during the last quarter of the book or so. I wasn't expecting that ending...although maybe I should have? I STILL haven't read Code Name Verity even though I have a ton of friends who have sworn by it. I debated snagging the newest Jane Green, but decided waiting until I saw a couple of reviews. I just haven't loved her last few books the way I did the ones I read in my early 20s. I hope you love all your new reads!

      I'm glad you enjoyed it….I was definitely entertained, but it wasn't my favorite. I am dying to read Code Name…so excited to have won it…hopefully I can check it out soon. I liked Jane Green's Tempting Fate (a fun summertime/beach read) so I am looking forward to trying out another one of her books. I'll let you know what I think. Thanks for visiting, Natalie!

    I've heard of Vendetta but I don't remember where from. I love that cover and the summary sounds even more interesting!

    I don't know if I want to read Vanishing Girls because I have a love/hate relatnioship with Oliver [her writing is beautiful, her plotting not so much] Oh well, we will see!

      Vendetta definitely took me by surprise. it was a great read! I hear you about Oliver. I really like her writing style, but I wasn't entirely sold on the story. It wasn't my favorite, but it was entertaining. Thanks for visiting, Nova!
