I can't believe I haven't read any of those 6 books! I have an audio book of Kill Me Softly but I still have to finish my audio book of Rapture and Insurgent before I can start it but considering you loved it so much I definitely want to read it sooner!!!!! I think I might make a post like this in the future to keep track of my favourite reads too! Have you read the CoLS yet?!?!? I haven't read it yet but I think that will definitely be a good one that just might make it on the list. I didn't love Unearthly so I wasn't too anxious to read Hallowed but I think I will have to give it a try! Great list :-) I will definitely be reading some of these this summer!<br /><br /><a href="http://seeitorreadit.blogspot.ca/" rel="nofollow">SeeitORreadit</a><br>Jaskirat@SeeitORreadithttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12022969251689585678noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5841889026658306428.post-76415936930130570112012-06-18T12:04:58.890-04:002012-06-18T12:04:58.890-04:00Ha!

And I've been wanting to read Everneath since it came out. It looks like Shadow and Bone is a must read, though I wasn't so keen on it in the beginning. The cover didnt look very exciting and I can't help judge a book by its cover. Awesome list, Mimi <3 The Golden Lily is at the top of my TBR. Adriaan!Pooja.

So many books, so little time xD<br /><br />Oh, I am reading The Golden Lily right now and it is so divine. I know that this series will be a future fave.

Last I heard, Shadow and Bone makes New York Times Bestseller list - more reasons why I should read it ASAP! <3<br /><br />Fabulous post, Mimi!

There are so many amazing books coming out this year, I tried to make a top ten summer tbr post the other day and gosh it was so hard just sticking to 10 books! I can't wait for My Life Next Door, Something Like Normal, Such a Rush and of course Losing Lila! (I already have my copy pre-ordered! but not the kindle version so I will probably have to wait a few days! :( ) Can't wait until we get out copies then we can gush over Alex together! <3Jasprithttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11346050783201302967noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5841889026658306428.post-88977298513903954082012-06-17T05:22:14.719-04:002012-06-17T05:22:14.719-04:00What's Going down i'm new to this, I stumb...What's Going down i'm new to this, I stumbled upon this I've discovered It absolutely useful and it has helped me out loads.
