Disconnect by Imran Siddiq:
I got this one free from Amazon Kindle UK. I was just scanning through the bestselling free Kindle books in the Fantasy genre, and this one came up. It had some pretty good reviews, so I thought I might as well download it while it's free. I'm interested to see what I'll think of it.

True by Erin McCarthy:
I got True to review from the publishers (Penguin) via NetGalley. I think it's only being released in eBook at the moment, but I guess, if it does well, the publishers might decide to publish it as a paperback as well. It's in the New Adult genre, which is something that I've been wanting to read more of recently, so I'm looking forward to seeing what this one is about!

Stung sounds AMAZING! I'm glad it's been brought to my attention as it sounds exactly like the sort of book I'd love!

I've never really thought much about starting the Gone series but I feel like I should... Everyone seems to love the books!

Great haul this week! :D

Here's my Showcase Sunday. :)

I really enjoyed The Goddess Chronicle, especially learning a bit more about Japanese myths.

Dani Cotton said...

Glad to hear it's a good read, Ellie! I'm really looking forward to it!

Rachel: You should definitely start the Gone series - I'm loving it so far!

I loved In The Shadow of Blackbirds! Unfortunately the Gone series wasn't for me, but I'm glad you're enjoying it :)

Really excited to start the Gone series now after seeing you rave about it so far! Definitely a book I'll pick up in the near future! Really intrigued by The Goddess Chronicle, will definitely check it out as I know nothing about Japanese myths so should be fun! :)

I'd really like to read Stung, but I've heard very mixed things about it. Nice haul! :)

Great haul here, Dani :). A lot of lovely books.
My Showcase Sunday :)

I really enjoyed Stung. I wasn't too sure about it going in but I was soon sucked into the story. True, however, I'm on the fence on. It sounds good but I'm not sure if it's for me.
