  7. Awesome selection there. I have to say I'm not sure whether I'm looking forward to Empty: I love the premise, but I really didn't enjoy the only other book I've read by that author... I kind of think I should read it just so I know if it's that book I didn't like, or if I just don't click with Weyn's style.

    Glad you got When I Was Joe. I love that book dearly, and the sequel is utterly brilliant too. Happy reading, Steph!

  10. I just added Empty to my wishlist, it looks fantastic. There are several on the list you bought that I've recently gotten as well. I'm particularly intersted in Amy and Roger's Epic Detour. Hope you enjoy them all.

  13. O_O LOTS of books this week!! I'm really looking forward to that book Empty! I believe it's a dystopian novel and I just love dystopians!

  16. 'Finnikin of the Rock' is one of the best books I have ever read. As a story of displaced people it is moving, whilst the war/refugee camps part had me in tears. The burial of the dead baby will stay with me forever. This book is brilliant. Melina gave a very interesting talk about the genesis of this book last year in Melbourne.
