Thanks to Kristi and Alea for IMM. :)

Books:


"Don't worry, Anna. I'll tell her, okay? Just let me think about the best way to do it."
"Okay."
"Promise me? Promise you won't say anything?"
"Don't worry." I laughed. "It's our secret, right?"

According to her best friend Frankie, twenty days in ZanzibarBay is the perfect opportunity to have a summer fling, and if they meet one boy ever day, there's a pretty good chance Anna will find her first summer romance. Anna lightheartedly agrees to the game, but there's something she hasn't told Frankie---she's already had that kind of romance, and it was with Frankie's older brother, Matt, just before his tragic death one year ago.

Beautifully written and emotionally honest, this is a debut novel that explores what it truly means to love someone and what it means to grieve, and ultimately, how to make the most of every single moment this world has to offer.

I won this book over at the Starry Night blog. Thanks again!!!


Francesca Lia Block's luminous, postmodern fairy tales chronicle the thin line between fear and desire, pain and pleasure, cutting loose and holding on in a world where everyone is vulnerable to the most beautiful and dangerous angel of all: love.

Got this one on swaptree. Gosh I've been wanting it FOREVER!

Non-Books:
I bought this one at Walmart. It's my absolute favorite nail polish color. Green's also my favorite color BTW :) It's SO awesome and only two bucks. It lasts about two weeks too so that's pretty neato. :)

Twenty Boy Summer's really great and Dangerous Angels sounds good, although I've never read it. The nail polish is such a nice colour! Too bad I would never be able to pull off green nails...
