  3. I still need to read The Knife of Never Letting Go! It's one of those books I've tried to start several times, but never really got into. I really want to read The Sweetest Dark. Happy reading & thanks for stopping by my StS. :D

    1. I've heard good things about The Knife of Never Letting Go, but I have heard it's can be difficult to get into. I just read a so-so review today about The Sweetest Dark, but hopefully since my expectations have been lowered, I'll enjoy it. :) ~Pam

  5. I really liked This is What Happy. It's the perfect summer book. I'm curious about Austenland and would like to read it before the movie comes out. I bought These Broken Stars a few weeks ago, but still need to read it. Great haul!

    1. I just finished This is What Happy Looks Like, and it was cute. A little more serious than I was expecting, but still really good. Austenland looks so cute from the trailer, hopefully I'll get to see it soon! ~Pam

  6. Ooh, The Knife of Never Letting Go. It made me cry (yeah, I'm a wuss). I need to check out the second one some time. The rest you received? I need to pick those up and read them one day as well. I hope you like your new reads!

    Thanks for visiting my haul.

  7. There's SO many good books listed, I don't even think I can name them all. But KONLG = AMAZING! Be prepared to get the 2nd and 3rd quickly after finishing it!

    Here's my STS

  8. I have Hover and The Sweetest Dark from NetGalley and still need to read them. I own This Is What Happy Looks Like and reviewed it not too long ago on my blog. I really liked it, but I really like her books. I'm curious to see what Sheri thinks about the Austenesque books. I'll be reading My Own Mr. Darcy for its blog tour soon. I hope she enjoys them! Thanks for stopping by my STS!

    1. I read Hover the day it came out since I liked Gravity so much. And the sequel did not disappoint. My review is scheduled next week sometime, I think. ~Pam

  9. I really enjoyed This is What Happy Looks like - I hope you do too!

    And I love the look of the Austenville books but haven't read them!
