For Review:
Dark Inside – Jeyn Roberts
What’s up With Jody Barton? – Hayley Long
The Masque of The Red Death – Bethany Griffin
Soul Beach – Kate Harrison
Soul Fire – Kate Harrison
I got so many review books this week that I had forgotten would even be on their way! I LOVE Hayley Longs Lottie Biggs series so I’m really excited to read this new book of hers and The Masque of the Red Death? EEEE, what more could I want than a new YA story inspired by Edgar Allen Poe!! I have to say thank you to both Macmillan and Indigo for these, you guys are amazing!
Bought:
Stitch Head – Guy Bass
I was out yesterday and on the way home I saw a sign for Kirkham, this won’t mean much to any of you but basically last year I went to an event in Preston where Jennifer Donnelly did a talk and signed books.
That event was hosted by Silverdell Books in Kirkham but I’d never had chance to get to the bookshop/cafe (they have homemade ice creams which Emma from Bloomsbury insisted that I had to go and try!) So I did a quick turn off and visited the shop, its quite small but they are independent so its always good to buy for independent bookstores and when I saw that they had Stitch Head I knew I had to buy it. I’d seen a review of it on Wondrous Reads’ blog last year and it sounds so good!
So yeah, if you’re ever in Lancashire, near Preston or Lytham St Annes/Blackpool I recommend a quick jaunt up to Silverdell Books in Kirkham!

I picked up Soul Beach last year and I still haven’t read it. Think it will be an interesting summer read though! 🙂

Lots of suprises for you this week. There are a couple in there that I’ve heard lots of good things about. And was the ice-cream any good?
