  1. Let’s see…

    After the last two Betsy books I’ve given up on that series.

    I was going to give up on Anita too but I’ve been told that Hit List (last year’s release, which I have yet to read but it’s on my shelf) was good so if I agree then I might check Kiss the Dead out from the library at some point.

    Don’t really know anything about that others.

    Oh and don’t forget that Finding Magic by Stacia Kane (novella) was release yesterday. So if you are a Downside Ghosts fan you’ll need to pick that one up. I’m digging into tonight.
