Innocent Darkness by Suzanne Lazear - I have had my eye on this book long before it even received a cover (which is gorgeous, by the way) and nearly fell off my chair when I saw it up on NetGalley. A huge thank you Flux Books for accepting my request!
The Night She Disappeared by April Henry - This book is no longer available on NetGalley, but I just managed to grab a copy before it was taken down. Thank you Rachel for the push! I will be kicking myself if I don't manage to get it read before the expiration date. 26 days and counting...
Partials by Dan Wells - A huge thank you Harper Collins UK for the review copy. I have heard nothing but good things about this book, so I am eager to get started as soon as possible. I need a good Sci-Fi fix. ;)
Seraphina by Rachel Hartman - This sounds amazing. It's taking all my will power not to get started on this right this minute and forget about the other books on my pile. I can't wait to read it. Many thanks to Random House UK for the review copy.
Fated by Sarah Alderson - You should have seen my face when this book turned up. After having read and LOVED Hunting Lila, I have wanted to get my hands on Fated for a long time. The lovely Jasprit @ The Reader's Den was awesome enough to gift me a copy. Thank you, Jasprit! One a side note, you should all go and check out her brand-new blog. ;)
On the Island by Tracey Graves - I was lucky enough to win a copy of this from Racquel and Emma @ The Book Barbies (another one of my favourite blogs). This isn't a book I would have even noticed before, but after reading all the 5-star reviews for it on Goodreads, I am so excited to read it myself. Thank you to Tracey for sending me the copy!
Daylight Saving by Edward Hogan - Another competition win. I feel awful for forgetting which blog I entered this on, but a huge thank you to the host and publisher for giving me the chance to read this book! A thrilling ghost story sounds like my type of thing. :)
The Dark & Hollow Places by Carrie Ryan - I have read the whole Forest of Hands and Teeth series and love all the books, so I'm thrilled to be able to own my own copy of the final one. I seem to be on a lucky streak with competition wins this week - this is another one! Thanks go to the publisher and the lovely ladies at Book Passion for Life.
As always, I would love to hear your thoughts on any of the books above, whether you have read them or are planning to. Leave me a link to your IMM posts if you have made one and would like me to visit. :)

I read Seraphina quite a while ago and am very curious to see what you think of it. Will be looking forward to your review!
ReplyDeleteLisa O. @ The Nocturnal Library
Wow, you have some amazing books to read. Partials and Fated. I want to read them so bad. Happy Reading.
ReplyDeleteMy IMM: http://readingandwritingurbanfantasy.blogspot.com/2012/03/in-my-mailbox-4-so-many-books-so-little.html
Oh my gosh, I think that the cover for Innocent Darkness is SO PRETTY too!! I love how steampunkish it feels, and I love how there's a thing that looks like a blimp floating in the back because I've always wanted to ride in a blimp! x) And I'm so happy that you finally have Fated! I may have loved Hunting Lila a little bit more (because ALEX! JACK! LILA! DEMOS! <3) but it was still an extremely sweet book! :)
ReplyDeleteBeautiful-looking mailbox, Sam! I really don't know how you can concentrate on anything else when you have all those awesome books! ;) <3
Very, very awesome mailbox! :D YOU GOT SERAPHINA. One, I want that book like crazy. Two, the UK cover is gorgeous. I seriously hope it's as amazing as it sounds.
ReplyDeleteAlso, Faded. Partials. On the Island. Daylight Saving. Innocent Darkness. So much awesome. O_O I've heard amazing things about these. Hopefully they're all as good as people have said. :D
My IMM
Eeeee! Partials was AMAZING! Really hope you like it as much as I did :D And I can't wait to read Fated since I've been hearing endless praise for it! Hope you enjoy all your books :)
ReplyDeleteKim @ The Paper Planes
Dying for Partials! I also won a copy of On The Island! Can't wait till I get it. The Night She Disappeared also looks like a good creepy mystery. Happy reading!
ReplyDeleteMy IMM
Yes! You got Partials!! You must read now! lol.. seriously <3 that book.
ReplyDeleteThe cover of The Dark & Hollow Places looks like that one book.. Forbidden, I think. Except different colors. I still haven't read this series though :(
Woot! Awesome mailbox, Sam :D I think you'll like Partials ;) And I hope you will enjoy all the other books you got :D
ReplyDeleteThank you for commenting on my mailbox. <3
Love, Carina @ Carina's Books
Sarah Alderson!! One of my favourite author! I love her Hunting Lila too and can't wait to read my copy of Fated. Looking forward to hearing what you think about the book.
ReplyDeleteHappy reading!
Here's my IMM for the week.
Great books, I can't wait to learn more about them. I just love the cover of Innoncent Darkness!
ReplyDeleteMy IMM

Awesome haul, Sam! Fated and The Night She Disappeared look absolutely awesome and I can't wait to see what you think of Partials - it sounds amazing! Enjoy all of your books!
ReplyDeleteYou're getting a lot of books through now! Yay, Sam! :) Wanting to get my hands on Partials sometime too, it sound awesome.
ReplyDeletenjoy all sam
ReplyDeleteI loved On the Island, Sam. I think Jasprit, Laura and I might to a read-along for Partials if you want to join in. Not sure when though. Nice haul. :)
ReplyDeleteGreat haul! I want to read partial!
ReplyDeletehappy reading!
My IMM
Great haul! Enjoy!
ReplyDeleteCongratulations on all the wins! And I'm really interested in The Night She Disappeared and Partials :)
ReplyDeleteOoooh! Looks like you got some yummy books this week!
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing!

Great set! Partials looks great. Hope you love it.
ReplyDeleteMy IMM
Awesome IMM this week! I really want to read Partials; it's gotten a lot of hype. Enjoy and happy reading!
ReplyDeleteLucky you, as always! I requested Innocent Darkness a couple of days ago so it'll probably take a while for me to get approved (or not). I really think you'll enjoy Partials, it's pretty unputdownable, and Fated is very good too. Not as good as Lila, but still good.
ReplyDeleteAlso, I'm off to find out more about Daylight Saving. It looks really interesting.
I have a feeling that Innocent Darkness is going to rock our worlds *fist-bumps* I would hate it if that cover was good for nothing. I bought Partials for my kindle recently and, like you, I'm in desperate need of some sci-fi. It's been A WHILE.
ReplyDeleteI loved Hunting Lila, and while Fated wasn't as awesome, it's still a fun book. It's Sarah Alderson's doing, after all. Hope you enjoy it! And I have to get to book two in Carrie Ryan's series. What am I doing?! *LOL*
Have an amazing reading week!

I am so curious to know what you think of Seraphina! Most people loved it but I had some problems with it so I'll be looking forward to your review!
