I'll be reading and reviewing several of these this coming week.  So far, I've only reviewed SHADOW AND BONE, which I loved!  I've finished CREWEL, which will be first up for review, and am reading THE SHADOW SOCIETY now!

Purchased:

*SON by Lois Lowry

{This is the final book taking place in the world of THE GIVER, and ties together THE GIVER, GATHERING BLUE, and THE MESSENGER.  I've been wanting to re-read these for a while, and now I have an excuse!}
 

 Borrowed:

*THE CABINET OF WONDERS by Marie Rutkoski
{I've looked at this series a few times over the years, but have yet to read it.  Since Marie Rutkoski will be at Fierce Reads next week, I decided to try it out now!}

*THE CELESTIAL GLOBE by Marie Rutkoski
{I've looked at this series a few times over the years, but have yet to read it. Since Marie Rutkoski will be at Fierce Reads next week, I decided to try it out now!}

*SEND ME A SIGN by Tiffany Schmidt
{I snagged a two-chapter booklet of this during PAYA in August, and the book is now out.  Plus, I believe the author is local, so score!}

*EVE AND ADAM by Michael Grant and Katherine Applegate
{I've read some of Grant's GONE books and Applegate's EVERWORLD books, and maybe some of her other stuff growing up.  I didn't have time to read my e-ARC of this, so I snagged it at the library and will try again!}

*IRONSKIN by Tina Connolly
{Another e-ARC I ran out of time to read.  Originally, I heard this was a steampunk JANE EYRE, but the blurb says it's a steampunk BEAUTY AND THE BEAST.  IDK, but I'll read it!!}

 

 E-Books/E-Arcs

*THE SHADOW SOCIETY by Marie Rutkoski

{Out Nov. 20, 2012}

{Watch out for an upcoming blog tour!  I previously reviewed the first book in this trilogy, REMEMBRANCE!}

 Ebook Freebies

*WITCH EYES by Scott Tracey

{There was a lot of buzz around this one during BEA last year, so I jumped when I saw it being offered for free on nook and Kindle!}
