  85. Great mailbox! I own Fever and The Future of Us (I was lucky enough to get signed copies of both). I started Fever last month and it's currently on the back burner, but so far it's much better than Wither! I haven't started The Future of Us yet, but it's not something I'm dying to read. I mainly bought it because of Jay Asher (I loved 13RW). The Dovekeepers has always sounded really interesting to me! Enjoy and thanks for stopping by! :)

    ReplyDelete
  86. Everyone at my library is ordering The Dovekeepers for their book clubs :P Hope you enjoy it!
