  1. I got Freshman year too! I'm so behind in reading Lauren Kate's series. I have her books but I just can't manage to finish it. I need to be more determined. Happy reading!

    Here's my IMM post.

  2. I've got a couple of those books... Wonder and Fallen In Love. I reviewed Fallen In Love yesterday and I really should get around to Wonder.

    Enjoy your books! :)

  4. Freshman year sounds really funny, I love the title! It's so true espeically if you experienced freshman year yourself. You got Fallen in Love! I'm dying for that book, you're so lucky!
    Happy reading!
    Check out my IMM!

  5. I love Greek Mythology with all of my bookish heart. Hades sounds fantastic! The book, mind you...not the god or the location.

    And I just can't get over how fantastic the cover for Wonder is. I just can't!

    Happy reading!

    1. Fallen in Love is apparently 3.5 in the series. Whoops, I thought it was more of a stand alone. I've read the first book, but now I am currently reading the second and have the third on it's way!

    2. How do you like them? I haven't read them and I really want to. I think I will have to pick them up soon.

      Have a great day!

      =)

    4. Hah, yeah I didn't realize there were so many out in the series already. I really liked book 1, right now - I'm not sure where book 2 is going and I'm about halfway done.

  15. Desperately need to read the rest of the Fallen series! I rather liked the first :)

    Enjoy these!

  16. I got turned down for Fallen in Love, so I guess I'll have to buy it, but I probably would have anyway. I have Wonder, but I can't get it to format right and after that massive migraine episode, I don't want to read it on my computer. I think Freshman looks really funny! The author is funny to email with. You got some great books!
    Oh and book three in the Fallen series is the best of the three if you like the series. I happen to love it so they are all great to me.

    1. I always wonder what really goes in to getting approved/turned down. Maybe they have a cap on the number of bloggers/reviewers that can get it. I'm reading book 2 in the Fallen series currently and 3 is on it's way - got to get caught up on it! I haven't tried to download Wonder yet, but hope it gets worked out because that is one i am really looking forward to reading.
