    I've been reading the Shift books this year - I've read the first two, but I have three and four on my TBR. I'm so jealous you have them all now :)

    I can't wait to read Masque of the Red Death either. I read the original Poe story before Christmas and loved it, so I'm dying to see how this compares!

      I just finished Masque last night. It was every bit as good as I've heard. :)

      I'm not sure what to think about the Shift books yet. I like them well enough, but I like Vincent's Soul Screamers series much better at this point. I'm listening to book 5 right now, and I've heard the series gets better toward the end, so we'll see.

      It was epic. I was worried that it wouldn't be worth the hype, but it so is. :) Check back soon because I have an extra copy I'll be giving away! :D

    Oh, SHINE (despite what I said before, hah) and ENCHANTED are definitely on my wishlist, so I can't wait to see what you think of those! And obviously I will be watching what you say about the Shifter series with great interest. ;)

      I know...I can't wait to finish up a couple of other books so I can get to Shine. I want to read it NOW. :) And I haven't been doing full reviews for the Shifter series, just posting some thoughts over on Goodreads, but we should definitely discuss once I've finished them all.

      IMMs really help me discover new books on NG! Sometimes they're not labled as teen/YA, so I miss some great titles!

    Going to try really hard to commit these to memory, BBS. Which means you will be reminding me about them over the next couple of months. :) I know I won't forget Until I Die, though. Even though I have taken a stand against girls in dresses on covers... I LOVE this cover. Enjoy, love! Awesome haul!! xoxo

      Haha...no problem! :) You know I love to force books on you! Hehe. And same here...I'm so over the year of the pretty dress covers...that tells me next to nothing about the story actually inside the book.
