To Scotland, With LoveTo Catch a Highlander

To Scotland, With Love (MacLean Curse #2) by Karen Hawkins

I just read the first one of these series and liked it, so why not?

Simon and Schuster Galley Glab / NetGalley:

Drink, Slay, LoveIn Total Surrender

    You got a nice selection of books. I liked Sea and thought the Hunger Games trilogy was very well-written and thought provoking. I expect a print copy of the ARC for Drink, Slay, Love to arrive one of these days. The author contacted me.

    My mailboxes are here and here. Happy reading!

    You've got a great pile to read! I know everyone says this ;) But I hope you love the Hunger Games! I read them because everyone kept talking about them, but didn't expect to like. I LOVED THEM!! (And I'm more excited for the movie than ANY of the Harry Potters or Twilights!)

    I have Drink, Slay and Love too! I've had it for weeks now, I think. But I'm still unable to read it. School is so hectic! But oh - that orange shoe up there? It made me think that I need a pair of orange chucks! And Sea! I've been wanting to read it for a long time!

Welcome to the Banned Books Week Hop giveaway! Hosted by I Am A Reader, Not A Writer and I Read Banned Books . I don't believe in banning books (or anything at all). I believe that we are capable of thinking for ourselves and we are able (and have the right) to choose what we want to read/see/think/believe. The Banned Books Week is basically a week where readers decide to defend their right to read whatever they want. It's the perfect week to decide four yourself it you want to read read that book some people is tying to challenge or ban... Intellectual freedom—the freedom to access information and express ideas, even if the information and ideas might be considered unorthodox or unpopular—provides the foundation for Banned Books Week. BBW stresses the importance of ensuring the availability of unorthodox or unpopular viewpoints for all who wish to read and access them.  More information about the Banned Books Week here. I'm sure there is a lot to say abo...
