THE SUNDAY POST #SIX



THE SUNDAY POST is a weekly feature hosted by Kimba at The Caffinated Book Reviewer. It is a chance to recap the previous week, share news, showcase books and/or bookish things we have received, and tell about what is coming up on our blog in the next week. You can view the rules, HERE.



This post is going to be short and sweet because I have finally succumbed to the stomach plague everyone had before. *Note to self: always use hand sanitizer before and after grocery cart usage.


OVERVIEW
On Monday, I finished THE RAVEN BOYS and gave it FIVE STARS. If you like Paranormal YA, this is the cream of the crop.
I was going to dive right into THE INVASION OF THE TEARLING, but THE INFINITE (the sequel to Gates of Thread and Stone, my top YA of last year), became available as a Read Now on Netgalley for 24 hours, so there was a reading change of plan.


I posted a TELL ME TUESDAY and I have a new feature follower REX ROBOT REVIEWS. We are at three now, with a fourth contemplating jumping on board next week. When I get ten feature followers I will add a linky.


On Wednesday Maggie Stiefvater announced that the title of the next Raven Cycle book would be THE RAVEN KING.



The cover of PERSUASION, the sequel to Compulsion by Martina Boone, was revealed on Thursday. It's purple, my favorite color.


Friday, I found out I was approved for THE BEEKEEPER'S DAUGHTER on Edelweiss. It was the only book I requested because I learned my lesson last week.



While drafting this post on Saturday, I noticed I had gone over 20,000 page views. On my one year blogoversary I was commenting that one of my goals was to have 10,000 veiws in one year, but fell short at a little less than 7,000. I am happy I made up for that with about 13,000 look sees in the last five months.


WHAT I GOT
THE INFINITE - Netgalley
NIGHTBIRD - Netgalley
THE WINTER BOY - Ebook Kindle Daily Deal 
UNHOLY GHOSTS - Ebook $2.99


If you are on NETGALLEY, and want to read my YA Top Book of 2014, GATES OF THREAD AND STONE,  is a READ NOW!




Is anyone doing a Valentines Day post? I am.
