So on Thursday, I’m heading to Disney World for an audition/a little impromptu vacay; I’ve scheduled most of my posts for those days, but if you don’t hear from me, it’s because I’m hanging out at the happiest place on earth! Until then, check out what I’ve been reading this past week, and let me know what you’ve got your bookmark in these days!
Lumiere (The Illumination Paradox #1) by Jacqueline E. Garlick – 3 Stars, full review to come
Fun, quick moving steampunk. Had some issues, but still a pretty entertaining read.
Succubus Blues (Georgina Kincaid #1) by Richelle Mead – 3.5 Stars, full review to come
Good old Richelle Mead. She doesn’t disappoint. Plus, Urban Fantasy.
A Shadow Bright and Burning (Kingdom on Fire #1) by Jessica Cluess
Still working on this one. I put it aside last week to finish up Lumiere, so I’m finally finishing it this week!
A Tyranny of Petticoats: 15 Stories of Belles, Bank Robbers, and Other Badass Girls, edited by Jessica Spotswood
So, I’m really not a fan of anthologies, but one of my challenges called for one, and this looked really entertaining; plus it’s got stories by some of my fave YA authors, so I’m putting aside my bias.
The Shadow Hour (The Girl at Midnight #2) by Melissa Grey
I really loved The Girl at Midnight (check out my review here!) so I was thrilled when this appeared at my library last week!
Death Wish (The Ceruleans #1) by Megan Tayte
Review Request. Megan Tayte probably hates me by now. It’s been far too long since she sent me this book to read and review. I promise, next week Megan!!
Stormdancer (The Lotus War #1) by Jay Kristoff
After reading Illuminae (check out my raving review here), I knew I needed to read more from the authors. Plus, Stormdancer looks so ridiculously cool.
What are you reading this week?
It’s Monday! What are you reading? is hosted by The Book Date.
I hope you have a great audition! What is it for?
I read A Tyranny of Petticoats a while back. Like most anthologies, some are better than others but I found it pretty fun overall!

Thanks so much! It’s actually for a vocalist position at Tokyo Disneyland!! I’d love to work abroad for a year there!!
Good to hear about A Tyranny of Petticoats! I feel like I’m going to enjoy it, but I’ve just had some bad luck in the past year with anthologies haha.
