So my beautiful daughter Elizabeth is exactly one month old today so I figured it was the perfect time to attempt to post on my blog again. While i haven't done as much reading as previous, reading, especially on my kindle and ipad have been one of the things to get me through the long nights of feeding and trying to get Elizabeth to sleep. Of course finding the free time to write blog entries and reviews is going to be the interesting part. Currently she is lying on my lap dead tired but with eyes wide open determined not to miss a thing. So if i get distracted mid post you know why :-P
Anyhew here is what has arrived in my mailbox over the last couple weeks
To Review:
The Immortal Rules by Julie Kagawa (HarlequinTEEN via Netgalley)
The Six by K. B Hoyle (Smith Publicity - The Writer's Coffee Shop via Netgalley)

Purchased:
I did some pre-ordering before Elizabeth's birth and these are the ones that have arrived in the past three weeks:The Calling by Kelley Armstrong
Spellbound by Rachel Hawkins
Balthazar by Claudia Gray
Actually I received Balthazar before Elizabeth was born and managed to get it signed by Claudia Gray while she was in Australia but it never got to feature in an IMM and I thought it should. Here is a photo of a very pregnant me (I was 9 days overdue at the time - i think elizabeth waited so i could go to the signing before being born :-P) and Claudia Gray:
