I got some great books this week. It made me happy!
For Review:
The Name Of The Star - Maureen Johnson
A Huge thank you to Tiffany McCall at HarperColins for sending me this book, I've had my eye on it for ages and I couldn't wait to get it!
Bought:
Notes From the Teenage Underground - Simmone Howell
Jessie <3's NYC - Keris Stainton
I saw Notes in Waterstones last weekend but decided to buy something else instead. Got home and decided to just go for it anyway and ordered it from amazon. It sounds awesome but what was more awesome was when I went to pick it up from the sorting office there in the box was Jessie... released early from amazon I was bouncing, even though I've read it, I love it so I was happy to get my hands on a pretty shiny copy! :D
Won:
Everybody Jam - Ali Lewis
Exodus - Julie Bertagna
Zenith - Julie Bertagna
Everybody Jam was won over at The Bookette as part of the British Books Challenge, so a huge thanks to Becky for that, I'd not heard of the book and I kinda forget that there's the possibility of winning when I enter the challenge but it sounds great! And the two Julie Bertagna books were won from a giveaway at A Dream of Books, I loved another of Julie Bertagna's books so I'm really excited for these ones, Thanks SJH!
What did you get this week?

You have a great IMM this week! I saw Jessy <3 NYC in my local Tesco the other day but couldn't afford it! Hopefully i'll get it this week :) Also, you're a fellow brit right? You joined Read It, Swap It? It's a book swap website where the only cost is postage :) Thought i'd recommend it as I saved about £100 last month haha!
Happy reading!

Again, love the cute dino!
Wow! That cover for The Name of the Star is so pretty! I think I might prefer that one to the US cover.
Exodus and Zenus have such unique covers and are so gorgeous! I've never heard of them, I think. I'll definitely be checking them out!
The name of the Star looks great. I need to add that to my wishlist.
I also use Read It Swop It, it's totally fab:)

The Name of the Star is awesome, I'm almost finished it already and it's probably one of my favourites of the year so far!! :D Happy reading and I hope you enjoy your books! :)
Exodus looks fantastic. I can't wait to read about it.
I read Exodus when I was younger and loved it, so I bought those two exact copies! The third one is out soon. :)

I'm just about to start Jessie <3 NYC tonight - been hearing great stuff about it!!!
Awesome stash of books this week!!!
Great selection of books this week Raimy. The Name of the Star looks really intriguing and I've had my eye on it for a while. It'll be interesting to see what you think. I haven't read any Julie Bertagna books so it looks like I'll be heading over to Goodreads to take a look.
Happy reading!

Ooh! I really want to read Everybody Jam but OMG! I LOVED Notes from the Teenage Underground! Reading that book is what inspired my Awesome Women feature :) When you read the book (and do it soon!) you'll know why.
