Not a Drop to Drink by Mandy McGinnis
Purchased:
Vampire Academy (book #1) by Richelle Mead and Of Beast and Beauty by Stacey Jay
For Review (via Edelweiss):
White Space by: Ilsa J. Bick and Into the Dark #1: The Shadow Prince by Bree Despain
I bought of copy of Of Beast and Beauty recently too. It’s had some great reviews and I can’t wait to get started on it. And is this your first copy of Vampire Academy? I really loved that series at the time – but I’m not sure if I’d say the same thing now! It was probably one of my first introductions to YA. 🙂
I hope we both love Of Beast and Beauty! I have no clue when I’ll be able to get to reading it but I can’t wait. This is my first time reading VA (all the way through–a couple of years ago I read part of it but had to take it back to the library) and honestly, I’m not loving it! I’m so sad.
I love your book haul! I’ve been wanting to read Of Beast and Beauty ever since I heard of it, and I’m glad it’s finally out. I haven’t read the Vampire Academy series yet, but I’ve heard good things about it. Oh, and I cannot wait for Into the Dark. It sounds amazing! 🙂

I love, love the cover of Into the Dark. Reminds me of something but I can’t place it. I didn’t know about Of Beast and Beauty until recently when I started seeing all the wonderful reviews.
Lots of awesome 😀 Hope you have better luck with Not a Drop to Drink than I did.. <3 And ohh. I cannot wait to read White Space 🙂 Hope you enjoy all of them sweeie 😀
I hope I do too! I have been SO excited about reading NaDtD…I can’t imagine not loving it since I’ve been so thrilled about it.
Great haul! I’ve been thinking of getting Vampire Academy myself with all the movie tweets I’ve seen in my feed, and Of Best And Beauty intrigued me quite a bit too!
I’m quite envious of your ARC of Not A Drop To Drink, I can’t wait for that one, I even have it preordered! I can’t wait to see what you think of it.
I will be starting NaDtD at the beginning of August. I’m really excited to dive in!
I need to check out White Space — is that a new series for her??
And yay for VA — I struggled a little with the first book but after that I was hooked!
Thanks so much for stopping by! Jen @ YA Romantics
I believe White Space is a new series! I honestly don’t know anything about it. I’m glad to know it got better after the first book–it’s hard to want to continue with the series since I’ve not really cared much for the first.
I really like the cover design on Not a Drop to Drink.
Me too! I love the title too 🙂
White Spaces’s cover really cauaght my eye, I’m going to have to go check it out on Goodreads. I wasn’t really a fan of VA, but I only read the first and I’ve heard from others that it gets better as the series continues. So, maybe I’ll pick it back up one day.
Great haul!
Me too! I love the cover–I need to check it out on Goodreads too because I actually don’t know what it is about! haha
GAH! I LOVE OF BEAUTY AND BEAST! *sorry for the caps, I’m just really excited to see what you think!* I can’t wait to read Not A Drop To Drink 🙂

I know! You are the main reason I purchased OBaB! Your review really made me crazy to read it. Now I have to fit it into the crazy reading schedule!
Great haul. Happy reading 🙂

Thanks Shane!
Nice haul! I got the two Egmont books, as well, and can’t wait to start them. I’ve been eyeing Of Beast and Beauty, having read some great reviews on it, but I’m still debating if it’s worth buying. I’ll have to read your review when you post it. 🙂 Hope you enjoy all your new reads and have a lovely week.

I really hope they (Egmont books) are wonderful! I am really eager to read OBaB…the reviews convinced me 🙂 Thank you so much for following me on Bloglovin. I’ll be heading over to check out your blog.
VA is one of my all time favorite series and I hope you will enjoy the book as much as I did 🙂
And I love the look of White Space, great haul!
🙁 I am so bummed but I’m not loving VA. I can’t believe it because I really thought it would rock my world. Maybe the ending will be so amazing it’ll make me want to continue the series. Thanks for stopping by!
Really love the sound of White Spaces, hope you enjoy it 🙂

My Showcase Sunday if you’d like a look 🙂
Very excited about it! 🙂
I hope you enjoy Vampire Academy! That is a fun series…..
I wish I was loving it more…but hoping the end will convince me to read the next in the series.
I cannot wait to read Not a Drop to Drink! I’ve seen lots of bloggers with White Space, I need to check it out. Great haul!
Here’s my haul.
Yep, seeing the talk about White Space convinced me 🙂
Good haul. I can’t wait to read Of Beast and Beauty.
Enjoy your reads!
I can’t wait to either. Have a great week!
I think Of Beast and Beauty will be at the library for me this week. Whether I get to read it or not is another question.
You’re going to love Not a Drop to Drink!
Ah I’m SO excited for Not a Drop to Drink – I wanted to read it when I first got an e-galley months ago but I held back *proud of self*
Enjoy !!
Super excited for Not a Drop to Drink… should be getting around to that one super soon! I also got White Spaces which I’m very excited for. Really love the concept, hope it doesn’t disappoint. Happy Reading!
