Q: Christmas in July! Someone gives you a gift card for two books (whatever that costs). What two books will you buy?

I have a lot of books on my Wishlist so this is a tough one. Right now I would have to say Rapture by Lauren Kate and The Summoning by Kelley Armstrong. I've previously read the rest of the Fallen series so I'm interested to see how it all ended despite hearing mixed reviews about the last book. I just finished a novella by Kelley Armstrong, the first time I read anything from the author. I really liked it so I'm anxious to check out her YA series.

      The Summoning sounds good, but they both do. I haven't read Fallen yet...another one on my long list of books to get to!

      I've never gotten into the Fallen series, but I've always wanted to read a Kelley Armstrong book. Maybe I'll start with The Summoning too. Thanks for visiting and I'm a new GFC follower.

      I loved Rapture, though I felt it was bittersweet. Of course, The Fallen Series is one of my all time favorite series, so I knew I would love the last book, regardless.

      Thanks for following me! I returned the favor!

      Thanks for stopping by Better Read Than Dead

      I didn't care for Lauren Kate's first book so I didn't go any farther in the series. The Summoning is awesome though, that whole series is! Armstrong writes some pretty great stuff, if you haven't read Bitten yet you should check it out too!
      Thanks for stopping by :)

      As someone who just finished reading Rapture last night/early this morning, I have to say, it's a wonderful ending, if a bit sad, but overall, happy :) And The Summoning and her YA series are are awesome :) I'm going to be reading The Calling soon, and it looks fantastic :) Hope you get copies of these soon and are able to read them, because they are the best! New follower :) Thanks for stopping by! Happy reading!
