Tremble (Denazen #3) by Jus Accardo:
I absolutely adore what I've read of this series so far, though I am a little behind (I've only read book one, and the short story between books 1 & 2 so far), but I'm looking forward to reading both Toxic (book 2) and this, when I've finished my degree. That way, I can give Kale my full attention ;)

Confessions of an Almost Girlfriend (#2) by Louise Rozett:
I received the first book in this series from the Mira Ink Blogger party that I went to last month, and I'm really looking forward to reading it. I definitely think it's going to be one that I'll love. I received this from Mira Ink on NetGalley, so I can get into it straight after I finish book one!

Imposter (Slide #2) by Jill Hathaway:
This is the second book to Slide, which again, I haven't read yet, but it's a very short book, so I'm hoping to read these one after the other, and I'm really looking forward to them both, because I've heard nothing but good things about them. I also received this one from the publishers via NetGalley.

A Trick I Learned from Dead Men by Kitty Aldridge:
I read a Kitty Aldridge book a few years ago, called Pop. I picked that particular novel up because it's set in my hometown, and I thought it would be pretty cool to see it from a novelist's perspective. Unfortunately, the story just wasn't for me, and I gave up on the book.
I am willing, however, to give this author another go, and this book seems like it might be a pretty good read. I got it from the the publishers on NetGalley, so I'm hoping to give it a go very soon.
