This book is getting quite a bit of buzz. It's right up my alley. I love Sherlock Holmes related stuff. I think I've featured this before, but it's worth doing again!

Thursday Night! The Return of Feature and Follow Friday!!

The Feature & Follow is back with a few changes. Please come back Thursday night and join us.

The Feature & Follow is back after a two-month hiatus! I know you missed it. I've missed it too! But we wanted to make it bigger and better - and I hope we have accomplished that.

I'm behind in the Mortal Instruments series. I'd love to catch up and then read this new series!

YA Quarterly Box #4 Unveiling

I always look forward to the arrival of my Quarterly Book Riot box. This was the fourth issue of the YA version of their regular Quarterly Box.

Book Riot is a very popular book blog and now has TWO Quarterly book related boxes. For $50 (each box costs $55 with shipping), they will send you a box filled with books and book related items every quarter. The YA box is obviously YA related, but the non-book items aren't really kiddish. They appeal to people of all ages. But at the same time, they aren't obviously adult - like a book related flask, which I received in the general box. The general box has adult books of all different genres (even a Ms. Marvel trade one time) and fun bookish items.

It took forever to get this box! It didn't arrive until two weeks after it shipped. At which time, I had already moved. So that caused an additional level of complexity (although only one additional day of delay).

After the last box, I said I was thinking of cancelling my subscription because I haven't been interested in the non-book items. I'm so glad I kept the subscription! This was such a good box! My favorite of the YA boxes and maybe my favorite of all the Book Riot boxes.

The subscription is staying, for at least a few more tries.

Miranda Kenneally is an auto-read for me. I'm surprised I haven't heard more about this.

TBR Challenge

Hey guys! Remember me? It's been a month since I last blogged. My longest break ever, I think. What's new with you?

It's been a busy month. We got back from our big trip to Paris and Dubai around January 13 (I'll have to post pictures!). Then we immediately started moving from our rental house to the house we bought at the end of December. So it was weeks of packing, moving, and now unpacking. Our new house is about 30 minutes from the old one, so I was doing a lot of driving back and forth.

Things are a bit calmer now although it will be awhile before we're fully settled into this new house. Years perhaps, since we're going to buy furniture a bit at a time.

This Song Is (Not) for You by Laura Nowlin

Release Date: January 5, 2016

Publisher: Sourcebooks Fire

Ramona fell for Sam the moment she met him. It was like she had known him forever. He’s one of the few constants in her life, and their friendship is just too important to risk for a kiss. Though she really wants to kiss him…

Sam loves Ramona, but he would never expect her to feel the same way—she’s too quirky and cool for someone like him. Still, they complement each other perfectly, both as best friends and as a band.

Then they meet Tom. Tom makes music too, and he’s the band’s missing piece. The three quickly become inseparable. Except Ramona’s falling in love with Tom. But she hasn’t fallen out of love with Sam either. How can she be true to her feelings without breaking up the band?
