    1. I love NetGalley too, mostly cause I barely get approved for any books on Edelweiss! ;)
      And yep, I'm Spanish, from Madrid to be more precise! =D

  2. I'm dying to read Evertrue, but I want it on my shelf and I'm one of those persons that almost never re-read a book and I can't buy two different editions, so I decided I'll wait until I can buy the hardcover.
    I hope you enjoy it/ them!
    Happy reading!

    1. I finally started reading Evertrue, and I'm quite intrigued about how it is going.
      Grim was very cool, some of the stories I couldn't identify the fairy tale that was being retold!

  4. Grim seems so good. I love the cover and fairy-tale retellings, especially dark ones. Enjoy :)

    1. Grim was great! I loved reading the retellings, even if I didn't manage to identify all the fairy tales!

  7. YAY for Evertrue - I'm so glad you got a copy! I wasn't a fan of book one and didn't read book two, but I like it when I see other people reading the book - it's the last in the series! I hope you love it, and all of your new books.

    Have a wonderful week, Pili! :)

    Thanks for visiting my blog!

      I finished Evertrue yesterday and I'm not entirely sure what to think of it, I'll hopefully be able to write a review for it later today... But I'm glad to have got closure to the series!

  10. Yay you got What Kills Me! I'm reading the sequel at the moment and I just love how it's so funny and fresh lol, especially for a scary world filled with vampires. Loving the cover for Grim as well!

  12. I still need to read the Everneath series, I hear it's great. I've also heard really good things about Grim from a few friends. I hope you enjoy all your new pretties!

    Thanks for stopping by The Book Hookup.

    1. Grim was pretty awesome! The Everneath series was pretty cool, even if I'm not 100% sure of how I liked Evertrue...

      Delete
  13. Maybe I just wasn't in the right mood, but Evertrue was a letdown for me. I was not expecting that, since I loved the first two books.

    I'm looking forward to Grim. When I read anthologies, I typically just hope that there are more good stories than bad, and this one has some great authors, so my expectations are high.

    1. Evertrue didn't feel entirely right for me too. I finished it yesterday and I'm still pondering on the review...
      Grim was fairly awesome, I really liked some of the short stories, only a pair of them I didn't like, so quite a good balance!

  14. I can't wait to read Evertrue!!! I would have requested the Mike Mullin book if I hadn't already received an ARC in the mail. Great haul! Thanks for stopping by my STS as well!
