A massive thanks to everyone who sent books for review this week:)

I also went to two events in London this week.  First up was Bloomsbury where we got to meet Mary Hooper.  She's awesome!  We got to ask questions plus have our books signed.  Bloomsbury were extremely generous and spoilt us with goodie bags ( and the most delicious cupcakes!  I've been dreaming about those cupcakes...)

Fracture by Megan Miranda
In Darkness by Nick Lake
The Weight of Water by Sarah Crossan

Next up was OUP where we got to meet Joss Stirling and Dave Cousins.  It was a fab night - it was great to catch up with fellow bloggers, chat with the authors - both Joss Stirling and Dave Cousins are awesome -  and it was lovely to meet the team at OUP.  They were also super generous spoiling us with a goodie bag and hot chocolate!

    That is an amazing IMM this week, and I am so jealous you have Fracture, that has been on my TBR list since I first heard about it and it feels like I have been waiting forever for it, and still need to wait forever for it. :(

    Wow! You got a ton of great books this week. I really want to read Velvet- I've read good things about it. I also enjoyed The Summer of Skinny Dipping, although it was much darker than I thought it was going to be. Enjoy all your books!
