Then I was super excited to have won this ARC from an Instagram giveaway hosted by the lovely Jen @ The Starry-Eyed Revue. The book was wrapped in three layers and I had the most heart-pounding time unwrapping it :D It's such a gorgeous book~ Thanks so much Jen!!!

    An Ember in the Ashes was fantastic. I really enjoyed it and hope you will as well. The other book looks interesting.

    First of all, big squishy hugs to Ripple. You got the hot commodity, An Ember in the Ashes! I went to the library this week and borrowed Going Bovine and Egg and Spoon. :)

      Thanks Pili! It's so exciting! Ripple was probably confused by my squeals and enthusiasm but he was a good sport ;)

    Ahhh, super excited for you to read Ember. I really loved it! I haven't had that much fun with a book in a long time.

    Can I also say how much I love the pictures of your cat? Ripple is so handsome! And so good at posing for pictures. :)
