I actually read the series a little wonky haha, I read 1,3,5,4, than 2. But yes the whole series is fabulous!
Awesome haul! Yay top ten lists, can't wait to see yours (mines already up haha). I actually ended up liking A Hellion in Her Bed more than I expected, excited to see your thoughts on it.
Nice.... I hope you enjoy them. I really liked The Host. There are definitely some awesome books there. Happy Sunday.
