  1. You got a great collection of books this week. I really like the series by Rachel Vincent. The Keri Arthur books were good too.

    What kind of an ebook reader are you going to get? I love my Kindle.

    Happy reading!

  6. @ Kathy - I started reading Stray last night & am really enjoying it so far :o) I'd not read anything by Keri Arthur before but just finished Dancing with the Devil & really loved it. Have you read any of her other series?

    I'm having trouble deciding what eBook reader to get. We can now get the Kindle here in the UK but we have to order it from the US & I think the books are all in $ which will make things confusing for me LOL. I'm thinking of going for a Sony one at the moment as that seems to be the only one I can go into a store to actually have a look at. I like the extra features of the Kindle though!

    @ Rebecca - I've just started Stray & am really enjoying it so far :o) Hopefully the rest of the series is as good - I'm sure it will be as I've heard so many good things about it!

    @ Book Monster - Thanks :o) Hope you have a great week

    @ Becky - I can't believe how well I've been doing in contests! I never usually win anything but seem to be doing quite well since I started blogging :o) I was very impressed with my Valentines day present - Ant always manages to do really well with things like that!

    @ Nina - I'm looking forward to reading Between Heaven & Hell :o) Just got to get my ebook reader first - I hate trying to read books on my laptop!

  12. @ PolishOutlander - I was very impressed with it LOL :o) Have a great week!

    @ Lizzy - I found the picture when I did a google search & had to use it because it is so similar to my cat! From what I've read of Stray so far I'd recommend the series :o)

    @ Chrissie - I had an amazing week! I'm going to try & put myself on a book buying ban now though until I've reduced my TBR pile. Not sure how successful the ban will be though LOL!

    @ Serpentine Librarian - Ant is such a sweetheart :o) I hope you enjoy Stray (I'm sure you will!) I'll look forward to reading your review!
