  4. So Many pretties! I will be breaking my Book Buying Ban a lot in the next few months, me senses...

    Out of your list, I am SUPER excited about Cress, Banished, Kiss In the Dark, Dreams of Gods and Monsters and Two Boys Kissing (very excited to read that). I know nothing about Trouble, but I keep hearing wonderful things about this book and To All The Boys I Loved Before sounds cute [I need more cute in my life]. I read somewhere that the fourth book in the Night School series, Resistance, is out in June so... am going to be poor for the next few months!
