I still haven’t read any Amy Plum. So many books, never enough time! Great week!
Check out my SP & STS.
Sandy @ Somewhere Only We Know
Lark @ The Bookwyrm's Hoard
I haven’t read her, either. And yes — waaaay too many books, waaaay too little time!
Jenea Whittington
Nice… Die For Me is really good, enjoy your haul.
Jenea @ Books Live Forever’s Sunday Post
Lark @ The Bookwyrm's Hoard
That’s good to know! Thank you for stopping by, Jenea, and have a great week!
Diana Leigh
Cute covers on the library books! Hope you enjoy. 🙂
Book of Secrets: Sunday Post
Lark @ The Bookwyrm's Hoard
They do look fun, don’t they? The Book Smugglers just reviewed the third book in the Kat series. They were so enthusiastic, I had to try the books! And the other has been on my hold list at the library for a while, but they just got it in.
Catherine Healey
All of your books look like fun reads. Enjoy! Thanks for visiting my blog…and, BTW, Storybound was the free Nook download this past Friday…
Lark @ The Bookwyrm's Hoard
Oh, nuts. Well, I don’t have a Nook (or a smartphone or tablet), so I wouldn’t have been able to read it anyway. I love my venerable Sony Reader, but I’m thinking of getting a Kindle just so I don’t miss out on all the great freebies.
Thanks for stopping by, Catherine!
Melissa (My World...in words and pages)
Oh I just finished Clockwork Mafia and so loved it! I hope you do too.
Great books this week. 🙂 Hope you have a good one. 🙂
I have a Sunday Post up as well…

Lark @ The Bookwyrm's Hoard
I’m so glad to hear it. To be honest, the cover grabbed me first, then the blurb, but I still wasn’t entirely sure about it. It’s good to know you loved it!
Melissa (My World...in words and pages)
Have you read the first book? Badlands. I loved Ever in that one. This one is from Henrietta’s POV, which was amazingly well done. 🙂
Lark @ The Bookwyrm's Hoard
I haven’t, actually. I’m hoping this one will work as an entry point to the series. If I like it, I’ll definitely go back for the first one.
Patricia
Oooh, I still need to read Die For Me! I hope you’ll enjoy it! 🙂
Patricia // My Week
Lark @ The Bookwyrm's Hoard
Me too! The consensus in the blogosphere seems to be very positive, so I’m looking forward to it. I just don’t know when I’ll actually GET to it — I’ve got a bunch of ARCs to get to, and my library books are dangerously close to (and in one case, over-) due.
Sheri Boston
I haven’t read anything by Amy Plum yet but that series has been on my list for a while. I need more time in the day for books lol Enjoy these and thanks for stopping by my IMM/STS 🙂
Sheri @ Perks of Being a Bookworm
Lark @ The Bookwyrm's Hoard
You and me both! — on the needing more time, I mean. Thanks for coming by!
libbysfunbooks
Some of these books sound really good! I may have to add them to my list!
Good luck with your NetGalley challenge! That sounds fun! I may have to join it too!!!!
Lark @ The Bookwyrm's Hoard
My goal for tomorrow is to finish The Sweetest Dark. I’m really enjoying it, but haven’t had much time to read this weekend. Then on to about three more NetGalley titles!
Jan
I read a lot of the Dorothy Sayers books years ago. They are from a different era! Clockwork Mafia looks interesting. I will look forward to your review.
Lark @ The Bookwyrm's Hoard
That’s one of the things I love about the Sayers books — they’re a window into an earlier age. It might be a week or two on Clockwork Mafia, but it’s in the queue!
Jessica Leigh
I have got to start the Revenants series! So many people really like them! Ooh, CLockwork Mafia has a really cool cover! Enjoy them all!
Thanks for stopping by my blog earlier!
Jessica@Lovin’ Los Libros
Lark @ The Bookwyrm's Hoard
The cover is what first got my attention. Then the blurb sounded really interesting, so I decided to request it. I haven’t read the first book, so I hope Clockwork Mafia stands on its own enough for me to enjoy it!
Melissas Eclectic Bookshelf
The Whizz Pop Chocolate Shop has such a cute cover…I need to check into that one…and I have had that Amy Plum on my shelf for ages…need to make time for it! Happy Reading and Thanks for stopping by my Added to the Bookshelf post!

You’re welcome, and thanks for stopping by! Have a great week!

I really enjoyed the first two in Amy Plum’s Revenant series, hanging out for If I Should Die which I think is out in May. Started following you via Bloglovin and in answer to your question on my blog … Bloglovin and GFC are completely unrelated 🙂
Lark @ The Bookwyrm's Hoard
Thank you for the follow, and the Amy Plum recommendation!
Yes, I figured Bloglovin and GFC weren’t related. I was really wondering more about how to see who is following you on Bloglovin. I get an email when someone follows, but there’s nowhere on the site that lists followers by name, only a total number. I also wonder if some people are following blogs on Bloglovin that they already followed using GFC.
