Monday Round Up!



One of my favourite memes hosted by the lovely Shelia over at Book Journey!

Crazy hectic week- full of 21st parties, surprise work, goodbye drinks,  visiting injured friends and driving around the countryside! Which means I had less time to blog as these events were all pretty spontaneous. This is a rushed post purely as I'm leaving for Graduation in half an hour!!

Reviews Posted
If I Stay and Where She Went by Gayle Forman- two amazing books!
Other posts
Stacking the Shelves- Find out what I picked up this week!
Follow me through my Readathon journey!
First Post ->Last Post


Read!


Loved all of these- great reading week although it tapered off after the readathon.


Reading and To Be Read


Heading back for Graduation week and taking these with me so depends on which one I pick up first :)
I'm thinking Someone Else's Life!

Upcoming Reviews
To be Rewritten (still) due to random busy week!
- Matched by Ally Condie
- Mockingjay/Hunger Games Review- eaten by Blogger so being rewritten grrr!!
- I Heart Lindsey Kelk- basically an overview of Lindsey Kelk's fabulous books. Also eaten by Blogger!


Upcoming Posts
Series Vs Stand Alones- The biggest casualty of blogger eating posts! I am furiously rewriting this one :(
I will also be putting together my bookcase so maybe a bookcase post??
Signed up for another Readathon so I'll be posting my top ten books for that!


Let me know what you've been up to blog wise this week and your plans!
Much Love
Lettie

    You've definitely had a busy week! I've heard good things about Gayle Forman books. I'll have to check her out.

      sunnyreader from PH (too lazy to login lol):

      I second Lettie's comments on If I Stay and Where She Went by Gayle Forman. Beautifully written and recommended.

      Lettie, Delirium by Lauren Oliver is an amazing-beyond-words book! It's been my top book this summer and the only 1 out of 56 books (all read from the library or online) that I liked enough to go out and buy. The sequel Pandemonium is just as good and really shows the transformation of the main character. I can't wait to read your review about it when you're done!

      P.S. Waiting for the final book in the Delirium trilogy to come out in Feb 2013 is killing me so I would recommend waiting a little before reading Pandemonium :P

      That is the thing I hate about series- the middle book is always a cliffhanger!
      I'm holding off on Delirium until next week and now I will be waiting on Pandemonium
      Thanks for the advice and comment!

    Love the cover for If I Stay! Looks like last week was pretty awesome in reading, and hope you have another great one this week. I really liked Across the Universe & Delirium so hope you get to them soon.

    You have some great books on this list! If I Stay, Where I Stay, Delirium and Across the Universe are all such great books. I hadn't seen the new Gayle Forman books- I am not sure what I think of them.

    Also, thank you for linking up at the Kid Lit to YA Monday Meme at http://www.teachmentortexts.com

    Happy reading this week! :)

    I seriously need to start on Gayle Forman's books– they sound amazing! :D and glad to see you enjoyed Princess of the Midnight Ball. I love Fairy-tale retellings. Hope you enjoy Across the Universe and Delirium! They're both really good, but GAH need to get my hands on the sequels. Any-hoo. Happy reading!
