From Author For Review:
Won:
You Don't Want to Know by Lisa Jackson
I won this in a giveaway over at Romancing The Book
Library
Library
Even though I have a ton of other books to read I couldn't resist picking these up from the library. I had picked up Breaking Dawn and Hex Hall in April, but then I had to leave suddenly and my sister ended up returning them for me while I was away.
Plus I've always wanted to read a book by Ellen Hopkins and I figured Crank would be a good one to start with.
That's it for me this week, what did you get? Leave links and I'll be sure to stop by and check them out!
