Hi, all. So, I fell of the map over the last week or so but I am still here. I needed some break time from the computer as I was having some concerns about a bit of pain in my left hand and was worried that it may be related to my recent computer use. Ergonomics guys! Very important. So, I took things easy for a bit and everything seems pretty good now. Unfortunately, I did not get much reading done in this time but I did get to see Tim Burton's Alice in Wonderland in 3D and mull over some blog related ideas and plans!
Stargazer by Claudia Gray
Admittedly, I was not all that fussed with the first book in this series, Evernight, but I recognise that this series seems pretty popular at the moment and I am all for second chances.
In the meantime, if you missed my review of Evernight you can read my thoughts on the young adult vampire romance novel here.
The Knife of Never Letting Go by Patrick Ness
I have heard some great things about The Knife of Never Letting Go and I am just super excited to be able to add it to my reading list.
It follows Todd who lives in Prentisstown, a place where everyone can hear everyone's thoughts. Until Todd stumbles upon a silent spot.
Sacred Scars by Kathleen Duey
I absolutely loved Skin Hunger so I am bumping this sequel right to the top of my to-read list. The first book in the A Resurrection of Magic series was just fantastic and delightfully dark for Duey's first venture into young adult fiction.
Read my Sacred Scars review here.

I have the Knife of Never Letting Go but I haven't read it yet. I've heard it's great tho!
I wasn't terribly impressed with either Evernight or Stargazer but I found that Hourglass was waaaaaaay better.
Cool books! TKONLG is supposed to rock!
Hope you enjoy them all! :D
Nice books! Hope you are feeling better! Take Care!
