    Hi! This looks like a great haul. I have had people highly recommend the Madame Tussaud's book to me before but I am, for some reason, sort of scared that I won't like historical fiction! So I haven't every tried it...

    I see that you got a Percy Jackson book. Rick Riordan is one of my favorites. I'm such a huge middle grade fan/nerd.

    I stopped by because you commented on my post about Nina LaCour's The Disenchantments and asked if there was a road trip vibe to the book??? YES!!! And it is really fun. They spend a lot of time in a van and going from place to place...so if this is a type of book that you enjoy, you will probably like this one. I didn't really cover that so well in my review! Thanks for asking. :)

    Madame Tussaud! I've been meaning to check out a Michelle Moran book, but Annette's review made me super excited to read that one. I can't wait to see what you think of it.

    I'm also really curious to see what you think of Deadly. I was really, really, really looking forward to it, but when I read it I was kind of disappointed. I want to see how your thoughts compare.

    You haven't read Witchlanders yet?! I'll definitely be keeping an eye out for your review of that one too! I didn't review it, but I liked it a lot.

    Happy reading!
