    I've had Wake sitting on my kindle for ages, and I just haven't gotten around to it yet. Ooh, Hugo sounds really good!
    I hope you enjoy your books :)

      Hope you get around to reading Wake soon! I'm sure it will probably sit on my shelf for a while too. I have so many unread books!

    I've wanted to read the Invention of Huge Cabaret after I saw the movie, but the half picture/half text book throws me off. Looking forward to seeing what you think!

      I really had no idea it had that many pictures. I thought there were only a few scattered but once I started flipping through I was suprised! I am going to have to see the movie after I read it though!

    I hope you like Wake more than me because I wasn't a big fan of it. Also I have seen The Invention of Hugo Cabret lying around the bookshelves at the library but never was interested because of the pictures. Maybe I should go re-look at it again! Thanks for the video and I hope you enjoy your haul :) Thanks for stopping by!

    I enjoyed most of Amanda Hocking's books but Wake wasn't that amazing to me. I hope you enjoy it more than I did. Have a great week :-)

    I haven't read Wake yet, but I want to. Gotta love The Simpsons, we have the crossover comic with Futurama and love it.

    Thanks for stopping by Book Cover Justice :)
