      So how did you enjoy your Net Galley read? I have yet to try one. Have a great week!

      Sheila and Jan--I liked doing Netgalley! It'll be even better when they've fixed their Kindle issue, but reading it on my computer screen wasn't too bad. And, the book was really good!

      Jennifer--Ok. You've convinced me. I'm going to finish Death Instinct so I can do a proper review for the tour

      Pussreboots--Great job on finishing all the Cybils reading!

      Will check and request Shine.
      But will do it after finishing my review for NG.
      I have received a lot from them.

      I am curious about Girl Who Fell From The Sky. Is it another book with angel inside?

      Nina--I am a new convert to Netgalley and like it already. Today I got Delirium by Lauren Oliver!

      Aleetha--There is no angel inside Girl Who Fell from the Sky. The cover is dark blue a falling outline of a girl on it

      You had a fantastic last week - I know because I added most of those books to my mountain TBR too. :)

      Have a great week ahead!
