HAPPY THANKSGIVING TO EVERYONE CELEBRATING! Enjoy the holidays!!! :3
It's a crazy week for me, and I'm having a lot of problems about a lot of things. There's that issue again with the post office with holding my packages until I pay an exorbitant amount, and its getting complicated. I have to see what'll happen, but I hope it doesn't come to the point where I have to close the blog. Hopefully NOT.
On a not so depressing news, I've just finished The Iron Daughter, and IT IS AWESOME! I'll have the review posted later, and I'll start with The Iron Queen right away!
For the hop!
No question for this week because of Thanksgiving!
The question for this week is: What is your favorite book cover?
It's so hard to pick one! There's a lot of 2011 debut/ book covers that are really really gorgeous, but if I have to pick from the ones I've read (and yet to read) this year, my pick would be:
Rebecca Lim's MERCY.
I love how simple the cover looks. Or maybe because I'm just VERY partial to blue but I just love how simplistic it is, yet its so beautiful. It also gives you a general idea of what the book is about!
Notice the swirls in the text for Mercy? Pretty, right?
Covers are what attracts me to a book first. I have to admit that I had no idea what Mercy is about but I was sold when I saw the cover, and then the equally amazing summary!

What's on our blog this week:
My review for Joanna Karaplis' FRACTURED is up on the blog. If you're a big fan of fairy tale re-tellings, you should definitely check out the book!
Also, my Teaser Tuesday post features THE IRON DAUGHTER by Julie Kagawa (still part of my The Iron Fey series marathon)
And if you're looking for new books to pine for next year, you might want to see our Waiting on Wednesday post, featuring three books we can't wait to get our hands on!
