    THE ORPHAN QUEEN! I'm so jealous! I just finished Red Queen by Victoria Aveyard, so I'm on a huge fantasy kick right now.

      I'm going to read The Orphan Queen first, then something else in between, THEN Red Queen. I can't read too many fantasies close together or the worlds start to blend. I love fantasy, though.

      I didn't buy the new Perfect Ruin cover because I love the original. My books don't match, but it's ok...I guess. I hate cover changes. Grrrrr!

    The Orphan Queen and Vanishing Girls both sound so good. I really loved The Immortal Rules, though I have yet to read The Eternity Cure. Vengeance Road sounds so good too! I hope you enjoy your books. :)

    You're right, pre-orders don't necessarily count as buying it all at once ;)
    I cannot wait to get my hands on Vanishing Girls! Vengeance Road looks interesting, and the cover makes it even more enticing... and The Orphan Queen, I've heard many good things!
    Enjoy all of your new pretty books :)

    Ooh hadn't realised that Mockingjay part one is out to buy...*races off to Amazon to grab* I'm planning to get all four on DVD then have a Hunger Games marathon! I have a few concerns about them splitting Mockingjay into two films as there isn't a lot of action in the book...but we'll see when I watch it. Thanks for visiting my blog-now following you via bloglovin!

    Great haul! I saw Bits and Pieces on Edelweiss, but I'm going to wait to buy it, since my name should be in there for credit for the title for one of the stories. At least it was in the e-version of it. Thanks for visiting my post earlier!
