As it is, I'm still Team Jeb, buuuuut mostly Team Jebpheus! ;)<br /><br />Btw, about the story about Alyssa's parents, Anita said on Twitter that she really wants to write a novella about them, hopefully having time to have it done & out before Ensnared!Pilihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05235628363081574896noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4541582388948046827.post-65951947377774058152014-01-11T21:30:14.123+01:002014-01-11T21:30:14.123+01:00How fantastic that you received the book so early....How fantastic that you received the book so early. What a treat! That has never happened to me; I occasionally receive a book from Amazon one day early, and that seemed special enough!<br /><br />I LOVED the revelations about Alyssa's parents. Don't you think it would be great if Anita wrote a spin-off series (or even just one book) telling that tale? I'd even settle for a novella.<br /><br />Oh, and sorry, Pili, but I'm Team Morpheus. :P<br /><br />Stephanie @ <a href="http://inspiringinsomnia.com" rel="nofollow">Inspiring Insomnia</a>Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16532824873675624385noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4541582388948046827.post-18571119460302058032014-01-08T18:48:57.787+01:002014-01-08T18:48:57.787+01:00Thank you, Jenni!

I'm so glad we get to learn about Alyssa's mother! She's definitely got a lot she can tell Alyssa so I'm excited to discover that. Plus, MORPHEUS <3 Although he's creepy and weird, I find him strangely attractive and I'm really drawn to him. <br />Cliffhanger ending?! Is it like a REALLY cruel ending? Because my heart might break. <br />Your review has made me even more excited for Unhinged, Pili! My copy only got dispatched today so it better HURRY UP AND GET HERE!<br />Great review :)Samantha Stewarthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07751599254054669479noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4541582388948046827.post-31744210712063406182014-01-07T23:08:43.790+01:002014-01-07T23:08:43.790+01:00Thank you sweetie!

Even less YA's, so if I want a book online is my best option, either Amazon or TBD. I remember wait for my copy of The Dream Thieves, it arrived a week and a later after release date! Ugh! But it is even worse with spoiler floating around...<br /><br />I guess the love triangle didn't bother me so much due to the fact that it's sort of reasonable, two side of Alyssa attracted by a different guy, and since both have been there for her all the time. And also, I really was expecting it to happen, it was not a surprise at all!Pilihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05235628363081574896noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4541582388948046827.post-13856520186955825842014-01-06T13:32:00.642+01:002014-01-06T13:32:00.642+01:00Oh, nice!

With Clockwork Princess I was especially enraged because there were so many huge spoilers floating around, so I ended up driving over to Target to pick up a second copy so I could read it immediately.<br /><br />I'm very glad the sequel didn't disappoint you, Pili. I had the feeling that love triangle was going to develop, but it sounds like you're happy with what's happening for the moment, anyway. Hope you get your hands on the next one as soon as it's available!<br /><br />Wendy @ <a href="http://www.themidnightgarden.net/2014/01/startersgiveaway.html" rel="nofollow">The Midnight Garden</a>Wendy Darlinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13471461156849725177noreply@blogger.com
