I am not doing a vlog today since I only got two books. And who wants to watch a video with only two books in it?.. In fact, I wasn't even going to do a post, because up until Friday, I hadn't received any books in the mail. But, the fedex man came and brought me...

Isn't that cover delicious?! I've seen some pretty positive buzz for this book, so I'm excited to read it. And, I know The Literati will love it. (The teenage reading and writing group I'm an adviser for). It's a pretty hefty ARC at 450 pages.Release Date: October 19, 2010
Also, I might be getting this wrong, but I'm pretty sure that Andrea had to change her main character's name from Calla to Cassia. I thought I read that on her website, and now I can't remember where I found it. So, if I'm wrong, I'm sorry... Here's the synopsis of the book from Goodreads:
While other teenage girls daydream about boys, Calla Tor imagines ripping out her enemies’ throats. And she wouldn’t have it any other way. Calla was born a warrior and on her eighteenth-birthday she’ll become the alpha female of the next generation of Guardian wolves. But Calla’s predestined path veers off course the moment she saves the life of a wayward hiker, a boy her own age. This human boy’s secret will turn the young pack's world upside down and forever alter the outcome of the centuries-old Witches' War that surrounds them all.And... the book trailer:
Doesn't that look awesome? Look for it in October.
I stopped by the Wandering Wardrobe also to see if they had any new (used) books in. I think I cleaned them out last time... I did pick up Among the Barons by Margaret Peterson Haddix. Love her stuff! Even though this book is in the middle of the series, it's one I like, and one fewer I have to borrow from the library!
