  1. I love these posts. This time I discovered new books I want to read (and my library even has a couple of them!), and I was reminded that I loved The Cabinet of Earths, and I had forgotten to check on its sequel! Sadly, my library doesn't have that one, but I will know to keep an eye out for it. Thanks, Charlotte!!

  2. Valiant is a good one! Hopefully I'll finish my review this week.
