Follow Friday(18)

FF 2012 Feature & Follow #80


Follow Friday is a weekly event hosted by Parajunkee and Alison Can Read.



This week's Question is:
 
Q: Christmas in July! Someone gives you a gift card for two books (whatever that costs). What two books will you buy?
 
If you have been following my blog lately or on twitter you should already know my answer to this question. I have been entering a ton of giveaways for these two books just to try and win them so I can read them. I featured both of their book trailers on my blog yesterday. If someone gave me a giftcard I would buy these two books in an instant.
 
They are *drum roll please* :
 
 
Seraphina by Rachel Hartman
Publisher: Random House Children's Books
Publication date: 7/10/2012
Pages: 480
 
Seraphina
 
 
and
 
 
Publisher: Simon & Schuster Books For Young Readers
Publication date: 7/10/2012
Pages: 384
The Forsaken (The Forsaken, #1)
Let me know which two books you would buy in the comments.
If you follow me, let me know, and I will follow you back. =]

    Hi Micheal!
    Haha, thank you so much for your comment! I've looked over your blog and it's awesome! I'm a new follower, and thanks so much for following me!
    I love fantasy, and I've heard so much about Seraphina: I definitely want to read that :D And The Forsake is, from what I've heard, a dystopian reader's paradise :D It sucks when you enter so many giveaways and don't get any results: you should keep trying :)

    I'm so glad you included The Forsaken. The Goodreads summary sounds amazing. It's a wonder no one's written about the US, Canada, and Mexico becoming one country in the future (at least, I think no one has).

    Great picks, Michael! I've only heard of The Forsaken, but Seraphina seems super cool too. For some reason I always get the name Seraphina mixed up with Thumbelina?? LOL. Random, I know. Great answer! <333

      Both covers are awesome. I have to say I actually like the UK Cover for Forsaken better than the US Cover. =]
