Books I've read this week:
This week I read a lot of books, thanks to some Germ Gremlins.  Here's the line up!




YA/Fantasy
(Full of action, and lots of magic!)


YA/Fantasy
(Fire Pretty! Also dangerous! In a magical way...)


Steampunk
(An author to watch!)


Children's Fiction
(First book in a lovely trilogy...)


Children's/Graphic Novel
(It ends on a cliff-hanger - brilliant book!)


YA/Graphic novel
(Though it's not out until the Autumn, it's awesome if you love anime such as Sakura Wars!)



Non-fiction (of sorts)
(BBC series, very good!)



Non-fiction (of sorts)
(With pictures from the films...)



Children's Fiction
(Well drawn, but I disagreed with the blurb for this one...)



Children's Fiction
(Funny tales of a disobedient girl...but not in a super naughty way.)



Children's Fiction
(I hadn't read this before and it was clever!)



Children's Fiction
(What happens when a young elephant faces bullies!)



Children's Fiction
(A great rhyming picture book...)



Children's Fiction
(This encourages children to be patient and creative above birthdays...)



Children's Fiction
(Subtly teaches about different dinosaurs...)



YA
(About a girl in a cult...it's shocking in places!  A bitter-sweet read...)



YA
(Finally got to read this one! I loved it; apart from the epilogue. It was good, but I would have been happy not knowing what happened next...rare for me.)



YA/Fantasy
(I'm reading one of this series each weekend along with another book blogger...)






Reading for this week:



YA
(Yes, I really do hope to read these this week!)


YA/Thriller
(Also hope to read these this week.  The first is a reread...my review...)



YA
(Reading this as part of a blog tour - I love the cover!)


 
YA
(Still haven't finished the 'Twilight' series but looking forward to it - another one as part of a blog tour!)






Hopefully a few others - I'll be netless (of sorts) from Wednesday to Saturday, so I expect to read a few books :)  Whatever you're reading, and however many books you read, have a good week!

Great list of books! You had a very busy week! My kids and I loved the Nicholis Flammel series by Michael Scott. We can't wait for the next one. I'm currently reading Sun of gOd by Gregory Sams. It's a non-fiction book of the spiritual kind, easy to read and very thought provoking. I'm really enjoying it.
