Hey guys, this is my haul since the last IMM!

WON:

Throne of Glass by Sarah J. Maas, Thankyou to Bloomsbury for the comp on twitter! I cannot wait to read it!

BOUGHT:

Second Chance Summer by Morgans Matson, After hearing nothing but great things about this book I had to go buy it! Loved all of it and it was a book that set you into tears.

The Last Echo by Kimberly Derting, I love the body finder series and this one was no expection! However it doesn't match my other covers! The others are so pretty and this one is dark, but then again it is a dark book

The Selection by Kiera Cass, This book was amazing, after seeing it in the shop I couldn't not buy it!

Anna and the French Kiss by Stephanie Perkins, I finally have an actual copy of this book! Instead of ebook reading it, I can now finally read it in book form.

Review Time! #2

Anna and the French Kiss by Stepanie Perkins Anna is looking forward to her senior year in Atlanta, where she has a great job, a loyal best friend, and a crush on the verge of becoming more. Which is why she is less than thrilled about being shipped off to boarding school in Paris - until she meets Etienne St. Clair: perfect, Parisian (and English and American, which makes for a swoon-worthy accent), and utterly irresistible. The only problem is that he's taken, and Anna might be, too, if anything comes of her almost-relationship back home.

As winter melts into spring, will a year of romantic near - misses end with the French kiss Anna - and readers - have long awaited?
(from goodreads)

What can I say! I bought the e-book version of this book only because I couldn't find it anywhere (the one and only e-book i own), it was amazing! I started at 9pm and and finished 12.30am, it was just that breath-taking. While I love paranormal YA, i do love a good love story and contemporary YA.

This sotry follows Anna to Paris, the city of lights, where she is sent to boarding school for her senior year SOAP (School of America in Paris). Of course there is a boy, Etienne St. Clair who is very swoon worthy, American born, English raised and speaks fluent French. And then there is Toph the guy she likes but is all the way back in Atlanta. As Anna embarks on her journey throughout Paris and discovers and expriences new things, she starts to fall in love with her taken best friend, he longer becomes St. Clair but Etienne. But he has a girlfriend, so can Anna deal with this or will she just ruin the the friendship that they have? I will not spoil this because you just have to read it to understand how breath-taking this complex, modern love story is.

So go out and buy this book as it will take you a journey through Paris, modern day love story and follow the story of Anna and Etienne!
