  10. Happy birthday! Congrats on the acknowledgements mention! I actually also have Life As We Knew It stting on my shelf to read.
    Enjoy Family. Can't wait to read iy!(Didn't know it was verse, though.)
    Ooh! Possession is sooo shiny. :)
    The Pledge! Haven't read Kimberly's books yet, but that's so awesome. And bookmarks are so cool! (Love bookmarks!) The passport is really cool, too. And the poster. (Yeah, right side up is usually pretty helpful :P )

    Awesome stuff, overall!

  13. Happy belated birthday! Don't you love it when you can buy books for your birthday? And to have free time to go to the used bookstore without the kids is even better!

    Enjoy all of your great new books!

  15. So many awesome books!! I've been curious about Life As We Knew It for awhile!

  16. Holy books, Batman!! It looks like you went on a book buying spree for your birthday. Which I totally approve of because it was your birthday and all. Plus, your name is in the acknowledgements in The Day Before! If that were me, I'd probably buy several copies just for that.

    I'm happy you picked up Spellbinder too! I really do love the series and I'm excited for the next one. The new paperback cover is so much better than the hardcover version too. I've been curious about Gregor The Overlander since I first read The Hunger Games, so if you get a chance to listen to it, let me know if you're liking it. I'll have to grab it sometime.

    Seeing all those goodies that Kim sent over with The Pledge makes really really wish/hope that I win. I love awesome swag.

    Enjoy all your books, Candace! It looks like you'll be all set for the readathon.

I do not accept awards because I do not have the time to repost. I thank you for considering me and your comments are the best award I could get!
