| Thank you so much to HarperCollins Australia for the ARC of Magonia! |
- Magonia by Maria Dahvana Headley - I got SO EXCITED to find this package waiting on my doorstep this week, and can't wait to read this very unique-sounding novel.
- Sharp Objects by Gillian Flynn - Gone Girl was one of my top reads of the year, so now I'm checking out more of this author's work.
*Other News*
This week Rachael Craw's #SparkArmy really took off! If you want to find the banner or buttons which I made for it, they're here.
YAY for #SparkArmy! I must put a banner somewhere on my blog. Thanks for making the banners--they're absolutely wonderful. <3 I'm also so curious to see what you'll think of Atlantia. I read it a couple of weeks back and was not a fan of it at all, but I hope you like it!
ReplyDeleteHave a fantastic week (and Christmas!)
You're very welcome Kara, glad you like them! Hope you have a lovely Christmas as well :)
DeleteI've said it before and I'll say it again - I'm loving the Spark buttons!!! Slash banners. Whatever they are. I've got to stick some on my blog.
ReplyDeleteI got Magonia in the mail as well! It looks amazing. May take it to England with me...
Magonia definitely looks like it has the potential to be a fantastic read - here's to hoping we both enjoy it!
DeleteLook at that, you're creating fandom buttons now. That just makes me super happy for some reason. I haven't finished Atlantia yet. I hope you like it!
ReplyDeleteAw thanks Steph :) Atlantia is going okay so far, I'm hoping that I end up liking it overall!
DeleteMagonia, huh? I HOPE YOU LOVE IT! It sounds so unique that the possibility of failing is high. BUT LET'S BE POSITIVE. I have all my fingers crossed that you'll enjoy it! Have a good week, m'dear <3
ReplyDeleteMe too Jess! I'm keeping my fingers crossed :)
