    I am really looking forward to reading A Discovery of Witches. I bought a copy not too long ago but am not sure yet when I'll get to it.

    I hope you have a great reading week, Staci!

    I've been eyeballing discovery of witches since I saw it on goodreads giveaways. I hope you like By Fire By Water. Read it last year and thought it was really good.

    I really hope that A Discovery of Witches does not get blogged to death before I get a chance to read it! I wanted to read it before I started seeing it on blogs, but I made the mistake to get it from the library, I think. Should have bought it!

    I loved White's Hush. Mrs Q urged me to read it and I pored over her copy until the wee hours. Amazing.

    Picoult will make you cry, she always does from what I hear. A Discovery of Witches seems magical. Can't wait to see what you think of them both :)

    I'm always so surprised by the range of books you read/review. I don't read enough books to 'allow' myself to experiment much, there might be an entire genre I'm missing out on.

    How is Lily doing?

    Have a great week!

    I thoroughly enjoyed Picoult's latest and will be interested to see what you think.

    I'm curious about A Discovery of Witches. We can't seem to keep it on the shelves at work! Big hit!

    Also, I read Hush by Kate White and it was a great read. My cover was different. I had to check to see if it was the same book. Enjoy!
