As always, IMM is hosted by The Story Siren.

I got two lovely ARCs this week:

TEMPTATION by Olivia Darling (the final cover is gorgeous!)
A MATCH MADE IN HIGH SCHOOL by Kristin Walker

I'd like to thank the wonderful Jessica from Cover to Cover, who helped this talented debut author with the publicity for the A Match Made in High School (read about her experience here) and she arranged for a copy to be sent to me - thanks so much, Jessica! I'm actually reading it at the moment and it's fantastic, absolutely hilarious! Look out for my review on Monday and do let me know if you've already reviewed it so I can add your review to my post. :)

I have several others fantastic blogs on the way, but they've been taking a while to arrive so I do hope they finally show up next week, I'm getting worried ...

Hope everyone had a great book week too! :)

ps: Just a reminder - there are still a few more days left to enter my giveaway and win a copy of the fantastic novel Air Kisses!
