Put this book off for a long while, honestly, because I didn't want to pay retail for it, because it's high (even the paperbacks). But I happened across this in an Ollie's and of course, I picked it up. I was shocked. I didn't think I'd like it as much as I did, but I loved it! Cassie Clare transported me into the past, and did so in a way that was consistent with the time frame, and most importantly, exciting. There's nothing worse than a book that's so boring it makes your eyes ache. Clockwork Angel was not that book. The beginning of the book starts off a little slow, so I can understand why some people might not get through it right away, but it's a necessary slow, building up to a complex world. Luckily, I stuck through it because after the first small handful of pages, you become so emerged in the story that the pace seems to pick up and you don't mind spending hours reading. I finished reading it in a day and I swear I forgot all about how len...

Hello again, my sweet Listers! I happen to have another cover reveal for you today as today must be a day of reveals. I love the cover and as soon as I saw it, I could not help but drool. It's so pretty, I want to hug it and call it mine. Unfortunately, it's not due out until July so I have plenty of time to salivate and pine. Now that I've gotten you all excited, and probably calling me a bit goofy (which I'd blame on my lack of coffee consumption, but who would I be kidding), let's get on to what you really want to see. Here's the title: Little Harbor Intriguing? And here's the cover: Ahh. Now I am dreaming of sand, lighthouses, beaches, and kisses. Is this cover yummy or what?! And now, you can see why this book won't be released until July! It looks like the perfect summer book! Couldn't you imagine holding that at the beach?! Thanks for checking out this cover reveal! I'll leave you with the banner, because I love the tagline on it!
